Company mission
To create a world in which every life story is captured in a meaningful way.
Our take
StoryTerrace aims to create a world in which every life story is captured in a meaningful way. It does this with its core service of turning people's life stories into books using its tech platform alongside a large network of over 600 vetted freelancers.
It allows individuals to commit their most important life moments to print with a compelling prose narrative, while StoryTerrace's ghostwriters take care of the process of creating, writing, editing and printing family memoirs. This whole process generally takes 8-12 weeks, depending on the book length.
The platform matches clients with professional writers, who hold interview sessions by phone, video call, or in person. After learning your backstory and all relevant details, the writer will begin working on the text of the book, allowing the customer to comment on and read the book as it progresses, as well as customise the design and cover.
This approach has led to StoryTerrace growing over 100% per annum, and becoming the leader in this emerging new product category. With offices currently based in Los Angeles and London, StoryTerrace aims to grow further.
