Hey everyone,

I lead the architecture and UX design for our product at story.ai, and we’re developing a text-oriented low-code platform in alpha-testing. We have two customers we’ve built bespoke automations for using our editor and runtime.

We would like to help you automate a task that is currently a pain in the butt that you might turn towards something like Zapier for.

Perhaps your current choice of services have a limitation you can’t get around, and you think it would be possible to fix with a more flexible tool. We are open to building exactly the integrations you need, even if they are a bit obscure.

Any help in this regard would be invaluable to validate use-cases for our current product. ❤

I’m open to answering questions, and if you’re interested in us building you something, DM me 🙂

This post might also be appropriate for #share-your-work or #of-end-user-programming, but I figured this is the channel for dumping “everything else” including stuff like job postings.

I want to know what kind of crazy systems they run into with weird file names, because other than music, this NEVER happens to me

Srsly. I have no patience for even spaces in filenames. The kernel may support them, but that isn't saying much.

Andy Chu is a great resource when you want to understand just how fucked up the modern Unix userland is.
