AI-Stories: your AI-powered content and comms agency

From $19 + GST a campaign

Your 24/7 AI comms department.

AI-Stories is iStories' self-serve AI platform: specialist AI teams, built by the iStories team, that turn your brief into a PR plan, social media strategy, content calendar or crisis comms playbook in minutes.

  • Example, PR Team. Brief: We've won a state small business award. Can you write the release? Vic Shen, Head of PR asks first: Congratulations. Which category, and what did the judges single out? That's your lead. Draft headline: Local bakery named NSW's best small food business
  • Example, Social Media Studio. Brief: We're launching a winter menu on Friday. Sarah Liu, Strategic Director asks first: Who's it for: your regulars, or people walking past? That decides which channel leads. Draft plan: Three posts, two reels and a local community-group push
  • Example, Crisis Comms. Brief: A customer says our product made them sick. It's on Facebook. Rachel Reece, Head of Crisis asks first: Is anyone hurt, and have you contacted them directly? We'll draft a holding statement while you check. Draft holding statement: We're aware, we've contacted the customer, and we're looking into it now.

Most businesses can't afford a full marketing team.

Solo operators end up doing the strategy, the content and the copywriting themselves, often after hours. AI-Stories gives you five specialist AI teams, each built on more than 25 years of PR and communications practice and each set up to ask the questions an agency would ask before it writes a word. Think of it as an outsourced marketing and PR department that's awake when you are.

Five departments. Brief any of them.

Pick a team.

Each department is a team of AI agents. They have names and roles because that's how you brief them, and they're labelled as AI wherever they appear.

How is this different from ChatGPT?

A general assistant waits for instructions. Each AI-Stories department is a set of specialist agents set up around professional PR frameworks and the iStories team's own practice. They ask the questions an agency would ask, work to a brief, and hold to Australian English and newsroom conventions without being reminded.

Who can use AV Studio?

It's an All-Access perk: up to 10 images a day with Ava, our AI visual designer. Single-campaign purchases don't include it.

Can I use the images commercially?

Yes, in your business, including commercially. They're made by AI, so they may not be unique and similar images can be made for other people. Don't use them to depict real people or other businesses' logos or products, and check anything before you publish it.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. All-Access has no lock-in. Cancel in the customer portal and your access runs to the end of the month you've paid for.

Can I ask for changes?

Yes. You can ask for up to three rounds of changes at each stage of a campaign, and every round keeps your earlier feedback.

What if it isn't what I needed?

Every single campaign, and your first All-Access payment, has a 14-day money-back guarantee. Contact us within 14 days for a full refund. Later monthly payments aren't refunded, but you can cancel any time.

What about confidentiality?

Your briefs and outputs are private. We don't train models on your data.
