Highlights
Keep prompting in the editor
Just say what should change: shorter, a different image, a new chapter. New figures only go in with a source, and the message tells you plainly what was not applied.
Build a Scrolly with a prompt
A topic is enough: Scrolly researches, writes the story and builds it with images, charts and sources. On every plan.
Companies try Professional for 14 days
Sign up as a company and you start with 14 days on the Professional plan, no payment details needed. After that you order or carry on in Free at no cost. Nothing renews automatically.
Reaction as call-to-action
Readers send you a short message right inside the Scrolly. You read the messages in the editor once the Scrolly is published.
