Getting started

What is Storia?
Storia builds your marketing plan: the release rollout, the social calendar, and a production brief for every post, inside a dashboard you run your year from. It is built by Austere, the agency, from seven years of artist plans.
How long does it take?
The questions take about twenty minutes. Your plan usually builds within the hour, and we email you the moment it is ready.
What order do things happen in?
You answer the first questions before paying. After checkout you create your account, finish the deeper inputs about your story and your releases, and the plan builds from everything together.
I started the questions but cannot finish right now.
Your answers save as you go. Leave your email when the save card appears and we send you a link that drops you back exactly where you stopped. You can also pay first and answer whenever you are ready.
What if I do not have a release date yet?
Storia builds toward one. You leave with a rollout you can slide to whatever date you land on. Release dates stay editable after the plan is built.

Your plan

What is actually in the plan?
A fourteen-section interactive dashboard: the release rollout with every song placed, the social calendar with every post mapped, a production brief for every post, your audience work, success metrics, weekly to-dos, and trending formats refreshed weekly.
How many post ideas do I get?
Every upcoming release gets its own set: ten to twelve creative ideas across pre-release, release week, and post-release. Songs already out get post-release coverage. Evergreen ideas and standing weekly posts are layered on top, so the calendar never goes quiet.
Can I change the plan after it is built?
Yes. Three rounds of revisions are built in: flag the sections you want reworked, say what is off, and the plan rewrites around your notes. Production briefs are editable, posts can be moved on the calendar, and you can add your own posts.
Why can I not add another song to a finished plan?
The song list locks when the plan builds, because every section is written around it. Release dates stay editable. If your release list genuinely changed, email plans@bystoria.com and we can reopen your questions with your answers kept.
What is the Austere Review?
A strategist from the Austere team studies your music, visuals, and socials, audits the plan section by section, and makes the edits before you ever see it. It is part of the $999 tier, or you can add it from your dashboard after seeing your plan.
Can I export my plan?
Yes. The dashboard exports the full plan as a printable document, and the calendar exports as a CSV you can pull into other tools.

Billing and codes

How much does Storia cost?
The plan is $199, one-time, with full access for a year. The plan with the Austere Review is $999. The Review can also be added later from your dashboard for $800.
Do you offer refunds?
All sales are final, as stated in our terms. What you do have is three rounds of revisions: if a section does not read like it was built for you, send it back.
I have a code. Where does it go?
A discount code goes in the promo code field at checkout. An invite code for free access comes with its own link; open the link, enter the code there, and skip checkout entirely. Codes are not interchangeable between the two.
I manage several artists.
Storia for managers and labels exists. Visit the enterprise page and talk to us; plans, pricing, and a roster dashboard for your artists are handled there.
