STQRY
STQRY (pronounced, "story") is a dynamic mobile and web platform that any organisation may use to share their fascinating stories.The stories are multi-media rich, including text, images, audio, videos, and links (to outside websites or other internal stories). For the mobile app user, STQRY is both an exploration and discovery tool(providing a list or map view of nearby attractions), as well as an on-site engagement tool. Upon leaving one organization, a user may continue to use the app to find other nearby attractions via our “Explore” mode, and simply follow GPS directions to continue on their trek. Once at the new location, he/she may use STQRY to continue to engage with the individual exhibits at that site. It's a seamless experience and promotes an expanded awareness of opportunities to explore our cities and communities. Additionally, the app is especially great for international visitors, as all text is automatically translated into the language of the phone (supports over 60 languages).We provide an easy-to-use cloud-based Content Management System (CMS) for organizations to create and manage their content. One of several features is a "Reports" section -- where the organizations may receive up-to-the-minute (real-time) data regarding who is using their app and what is being viewed. Organizations may also add extra features to their app including "Donation" modules (to provide "in-the-moment" opportunities for visitors to donate on the spot), "Passport" (a gaming element that allows visitors to collect "Passport Stamps" for their in-app Passport), and other "Paid Premium Content" modules (allowing the organization to provide additional and special experiences for a cost -- such as an audio guide system or a members-only event or experience, etc.).STQRY is driven to provide the best experience for users -- answering their immediate questions and engaging their curiosity to explore further -- while also providing a flexible, expansive, and easy-to-use platform for organizations to share their information and to showcase their amazing stories in the most attractive, interesting, and connected way possible.
