Our lives are filled with amazing moments that touch our hearts and make us who we are. Many involve the people we love in groups like families, companies, teams and clubs.Telling stories about those consequential times has the capacity to inform, connect and sustain people. Knowing that we belong and matter--hearing it from the others in our group, especially those we value most--can enhance self esteem, strengthen relationships, and improve group cohesion.But sharing the most meaningful stories requires a way to capture details and imagery from all the people in a group, regardless of how many or where they are--and that's just hard, even with technology. Groups are complicated and uncovering the most important parts of a story requires skill and experience that most people don't have.That’s why we invented GroupStory™, a software platform designed specifically for groups to share their stories. Our approach is grounded in science, implemented by software, enabled by AI, and supported by two U.S. patents.
