What can I do with Stornaway?

Stornaway makes it easy to create, manage, and publish interactive video experiences, without writing a single line of code.

Explore the features that put you in complete control of your interactive content.

INTERACTIVE AUTHORING

Stornaway’s no-code authoring tool is purpose-built for creating adaptive interactive videos, branching scenarios, and decision-based journeys. Unlike traditional editors or slideware, it empowers teams to build scalable, on-brand experiences through a uniquely visual, reusable, and decentralised workflow.

Plan your story visually

The core element of Stornaway.io is the Story Island – which might be a scene, a location or a clip. Each island is shown as a box, with arrows which show how it links to other islands.

Stornaway’s Story Map makes it super easy to follow the paths that a viewer might take – to go back and take another path, to zoom out and see the whole story.

Create from pre-built templates

It’s now even easier to start creating your own interactive experiences.

Quickly jump into pre-defined template projects that you can customise with your own content. Discover different map layouts and be inspired by the various project examples, allowing you to play through, tweak, refine and rebuild to fit your own narrative.

Make anything interactive

Stornaway Voyager lets you bring content from all over the web into your video.

From YouTube and social posts, live streams, and products, simply connect them up through Stornaway to create transformational user journeys viewed through the Stornaway ‘magic window’ that you can embed on your site.

Learn what's possible

Craft immersive 360 experiences

Stornaway transforms ordinary 360° footage into captivating, interactive journeys for training, virtual tours, or immersive events. With just a few clicks, you can enable 360° projection within any project, layer in spatially rich binaural audio to anchor viewers in the scene, and build branching, scenario-based experiences that feel real and unforgettable.

This level of immersion boosts engagement, improves learning retention, and lets audiences explore environments (like museums or emergency‑response simulations) without risk or physical presence.

Make your videos accessible

Start designing inclusive interactive experiences that everyone can enjoy.

At Stornaway.io, we believe that interactive video should be accessible to everyone, regardless of language, ability, or the technology they use. That’s why we’ve built powerful accessibility features into every part of our platform.

Make your videos accessible

Create personalised and dynamic branching videos

Stornaway makes it easy to create interactive video content that adapts to each viewers’ choices, without needing any code. Guide learners through custom scenarios, deliver standout, story-driven experiences and get data-driven engagement and outcomes. It’s a smarter way to create video that resonates, remembers, and performs.

Discover the magic

Add chapters and smart navigation

Give your viewers the power to jump ahead, dive deep, and control their own journey.

Long videos don’t have to mean long attention spans. With chapter menu screens in Stornaway, you can break your content into clickable sections, bite-sized moments, or separate islands. Make it easier for your audience to explore what interests them most.

Empowering Enterprises

Play back immediately

Simply click Play to immediately playtest. Even before you have any video to upload, Stornaway.io will let you play whatever you’ve planned out, using placeholder videos.

This is one of Stornaway’s most powerful features: no more waiting to the end to see how your project plays, when it’s too late to change it. You’ll instantly be able to feel how your audience will experience it.

DATA COLLECTION & INTEGRATIONS

Stornaway collects rich, structured data on viewer choices, engagement paths and logic, going far beyond basic video metrics. Seamlessly integrate with your LMS, LRS, CRM, or analytics stack to unlock powerful insights for personalisation, A/B testing, and strategy. With native support for xAPI, SCORM, Adobe, and Google, your video content becomes a true data-driven asset.

Tell a story with data

The true power of interactive content lies not only in its ability to engage but in the rich, actionable insights it provides. With Stornaway, you can go far beyond basic “views” and “completions.” Every click, choice, and journey path becomes a data point that tells a deeper story about your audience – what draws them in, what makes them linger, and what drives them away.

Stornaway allows you to track and measure exactly the data that matters to you. Gain insights into viewer behaviour and learning, or analyse engagement and retention across your journey – anything is possible!

Use data to personalise your videos

Stornaway makes it easy to personalise interactive videos using the data you already have. Whether it’s learner roles from your LMS, customer segments from your CRM, or behaviour tracked through analytics tools, you can tailor journeys dynamically, from the moment someone hits “play.”

Launch viewers into different paths based on who they are, what they’ve clicked before, or choices they make in real-time. Capture every interaction and feed it back into your CRM, marketing automation, or reporting tools to refine journeys, trigger follow-ups, and measure real impact.
