Comparing Storytell to ChatGPT

How many times have you experienced technology that truly feels magical? Those rare moments when a tool doesn't just work but transforms what you thought possible?

AI assistants have become essential companions for knowledge workers everywhere. But not all AI platforms serve the same purpose, especially when it comes to handling your organization's most precious resource: its collective knowledge.

While ChatGPT offers powerful conversations with a handful of files, Storytell builds upon this foundation to transform your organization's scattered information into something far more powerful: actionable company intelligence that your entire team can access.

The data swamp problem

Most organizations I speak with are drowning in what I call "data" swamps"—disconnected systems where valuable information gets buried and forgotten:

  • PDFs and presentations lost in the depths of shared drives
  • Customer insights hidden in CRM notes and call transcripts
  • Specialized knowledge trapped in the minds of individual team members
  • Critical data fragmented across departments with no way to connect the dots

ChatGPT offers a lifeboat by uploading a few files to inform a single conversation.

Storytell builds you an entire ship by creating a comprehensive view of your organization's intelligence that evolves and grows with you.

The power of @Mentions: Your data, where you need it

What makes Storytell fundamentally different is our powerful @mention functionality.

Simply type "@" followed by a Collection name in your prompt (like "NPS Data" or "Customer feedback" in the image above) to instantly access precisely the data you need. Behind the scenes, Storytell:

  1. Intelligently identifies the most relevant information from your mentioned Collections
  2. Analyzes connections between data points that would be impossible to find manually
  3. Delivers insights powered by your entire knowledge ecosystem, not just the files in your current conversation

Collections: Your knowledge, organized your way

Unlike ChatGPT's conversation-by-conversation approach, Storytell organizes your knowledge into Collections. These customizable, shareable knowledge spaces:

  • Create logical hierarchies that make intuitive sense for your team
  • Enable precise access control for different departments or individuals
  • Maintain context across all related information
  • Update dynamically as new information emerges

You can still access the power of ChatGPT's LLMs with Storytell. Our DynamicLLM router automatically selects the best model for each query. The best part? You get access to the same LLMs that power ChatGPT, and you can manually select them to override the router whenever you want.

Beyond simple analysis: A unified view of knowledge

"Storytell transformed our process. What used to take two to three weeks of analysis was done in less than a day. The result? We can produce proposals that secure us five figure deals, signed the very next day."  - Grant Simmons, VP - Kochava Foundry

Storytell doesn't just search your files. It creates a unified view of your organization's knowledge through:

  • @Concepts Technology: Aggregates related information chunks across all sources into verifiable data containers
  • Ask the right questions: Powerful functionality to help you get a better answer, every time
  • Multi-Step Query Routing: Overcomes LLM context limitations through sophisticated multi-pass "MapReduce for LLMs" approach

Security you can trust

Enterprise-grade security is built into Storytell's core:
