The world is full of knowledge – we turn it into books.
Rethinking books
A book is still the most powerful way to share knowledge. But it no longer needs to take years, endless resources, or a publishing contract. With story.one, books can be created faster, more directly, and in the authentic voice of their author.
Voices that matter
So much valuable knowledge never becomes a book – not because it lacks relevance, but because structure, time, or access get in the way. story.one removes those barriers, giving people the chance to turn their ideas into works that inspire and endure.
The story behind story.one
As a publisher, I witnessed the power of books to connect people, to inspire change, and to shape the way we see the world. But I also saw how much remarkable knowledge and experience never reached readers. Too often, the publishing process was slow, exclusive, or intimidating – meaning many important voices remained silent.
That’s why I founded story.one: to open a new path for books to be written and published. A path that is faster, more immediate, and more authentic. Our purpose is simple: to give people a voice and to bring their ideas into the world in the form of books.
With story.one, a keynote, a scientific paper, an interview, or even a voice memo can become a book the very next day – concise, readable, and available across languages. Technology helps shape and structure, but the voice, the ideas, and the ownership always remain with the author.
I cannot wait to see the stories and books you will create – and the difference they will make to readers everywhere.
