Storyplanet was a a next generation media platform that lets storytellers, journalists and photographers easily create immersive content and turn almost any idea into a beautiful, visual story.

We were brought onboard in 2012 to build the platform from the ground up — designing the system architecture, developing the backend system and exposing services via APIs that are used by the story editor and player.

The backend was developed using Ruby and Sinatra, a collection of web technologies were employed on the front-end while the story editor and player were both built using Flash.

Definitely one of the most exciting things we’ve worked on — unfortunately the startup is no more.
