Introducing the Subtxt API: Eight Years in the Making, Doors Now Open!

Time to build something bigger than yourself

Today marks a milestone for us at Narrative First. After eight years of dedicated development and storytelling innovation, we're thrilled to announce the launch of our first-ever Subtxt APIs.

Built upon the revolutionary Universal Narrative Model (UNM), the Subtxt API provides creators, developers, and storytellers everywhere the opportunity to integrate advanced narrative tools directly into their own apps, workflows, and creative pipelines.

What's Inside?

Starting today, we're rolling out four powerful API endpoints designed to unlock your storytelling potential:

  • Storyforms: Seamlessly retrieve your narrative content from Subtxt, making it instantly available to use and build upon in your own applications.
  • Evaluations: Quickly evaluate and align your storytelling efforts against the proven standards of the Universal Narrative Model.
  • Scene Completion: Automatically verify if the narrative moments or scenes you've designed have effectively reached their intended beats.
  • NarrativeSync: Effortlessly adapt any block of text to match pre-defined narrative Storypoints or Storybeats, ensuring consistency and clarity throughout your storytelling.

The Power of Open Narrative

Why keep our innovations hidden away? By abstracting these powerful narrative tools from Subtxt itself, we're inviting the broader creative and development community to harness and expand upon the power of structured storytelling.

Imagine integrating UNM-driven insights directly into your writing apps, interactive gaming experiences, or even AI-driven storytelling platforms. The possibilities are limitless—and we can't wait to see what you create!
