Storytelling hub for purpose-driven entrepreneurs who need different versions of their story for different audiences. And want their message to evolve as their business grows.
Most entrepreneurs spend months perfecting their product but can’t explain what they do to their audience.
The result ? Despite the powerful mission, their message gets lost.
Scenario 1
Structure Problems
Great mission but the founder is having a hard time presenting it in a structured way with key information. The foundation story is absent.
Scenario 2
Adaptation issues
The foundation story exists but the founder doesn’t adapt it effectively for different audiences. Investors, customers, and partners need different angles of the same story.
Scenario 3
Outdated story
The messaging is solid but has become outdated as the mission evolved. It no longer reflects the current mission.
How The Compass helps you tell your story. No matter the circumstance.
1. It always starts the with same six deceptively challenging questions
These questions look simple. They’re not. Our users called them « strategic, thoughtful, provocative » – not because they’re complex, but because they force the kind of strategic clarity most entrepreneurs avoid. Can you answer « What do you do? » in one sentence? Most can’t.
It is like going to the gym, these questions build your clarity muscle: Who you are, what you solve, why it matters, who it’s for, how you do it, and where you’re going. Repetition strengthens your core story and makes adapting it easier.
2. Daily story creation where you choose the format
Create one story per day: generate one story per day using strategic prompts refined through years of investment banking and entrepreneurial experience.
Your story is adapted to the format you chose: whether it’s a cold email to an impact investor, your foundation story, a LinkedIn bio or your elevator pitch, each format has unique constraints and objectives. The Compass crafts stories that fit perfectly within these parameters.
3. Receive your tailored story by email
A fresh, polished story that connects with your specific audience. Not generic AI instructions, but distilled expertise that ensures your story resonates with the people who matter most.
4. Your story library, personalized to you
« Sarah, welcome to your Compass. This is your story. » Your stories are automatically saved in a dedicated space for reflection, pattern spotting, and identifying narrative gaps as your business evolves.
The Compass
Storytelling hub for purpose-driven entrepreneurs who need different versions of their story for different audiences
Meet Sarah, founder of EcoClean Solutions. She has a powerful mission but struggles to explain what she does:
Sarah's Current Elevator Pitch:
"So, we're like... we make cleaning products? But they're eco-friendly. Well, not just cleaning products, we also do consulting for businesses who want to be more sustainable. And we have this app that tracks your carbon footprint when you clean. It's hard to explain but basically we help people and companies clean better for the planet... Does that make sense?"
The Problem: Despite having a genuinely impactful business, Sarah's message is scattered, unclear, and fails to capture her audience's attention. Investors are confused, customers don't understand the value, and partners can't see how to collaborate.
Sarah uses The Compass to work through the six deceptively challenging questions that build her clarity muscle:
These questions took our beta users 35 minutes on their first attempt (with guidance). By month 3? Down to 8 minutes.
It's not that the questions get easier - your story clarity gets stronger. Just like the gym - same weights, stronger muscles.

✅ Sarah has selected: Networking Pitch for her upcoming networking event
Based on Sarah's responses and her chosen format (Elevator Pitch), The Compass AI generates her first tailored story:
Sarah's AI-Generated Networking Pitch:
"Hello, I am Sarah Johnson, founder and CEO of EcoClean Solutions. Our company provides plant-based cleaning solutions to mid-market companies in the commercial cleaning sector. We have achieved measurable results including a 23% cost reduction for our 47 enterprise clients while preventing approximately 23,000 pounds of toxic waste from entering waterways. Our value proposition centers on sustainable cleaning products with integrated real-time tracking capabilities that deliver ROI through our proprietary digital platform. We are positioned as the Tesla of commercial cleaning, offering scalable solutions for businesses seeking environmental impact reduction."
Technically accurate but completely forgettable. Sounds like LinkedIn auto-generated corporate speak.
No emotional connection, no reason to care about Sarah personally, and identical to every other B2B startup pitch.
The AI Result: A solid, structured story that covers the key points, but it's still generic and lacks the personal touch that makes stories truly memorable.
A storytelling expert reviews Sarah's AI-generated pitch and reworks it to make it more personal and compelling:
Sarah's Expert-Refined Networking Pitch:
"It all started at my daughter's preschool. They switched to 'eco-friendly' cleaners that made the kids cough more than the original chemicals. It made me realize something: the issue isn't just toxic cleaning products. It's that sustainable alternatives don't actually work.
So we started thinking. That's how EcoClean Solutions was born. We provide companies with safer cleaning products that actually work - and the expertise to use them right. You know that stubborn stain on the office carpet that never comes out? With our plant-based formulas and guidance, it finally goes away. Plus, our app shows businesses their exact cost savings and environmental impact. We've helped 47 companies prevent 23,000 pounds of toxic waste from entering waterways.
Our biggest win? Today my daughter's preschool uses EcoClean Solutions. I'm Sarah, founder of EcoClean Solutions. Nice to meet you."
Key Changes Made:
- Added Personal Origin: The daughter/preschool story creates immediate emotional connection
- Concrete Problem Example: "Stubborn office carpet stain" makes the value instantly tangible
- Complete Solution Positioning: Products + expertise + app shows full value stack
- Emotional Bookend: Opening and closing with daughter's preschool creates perfect narrative arc
- Natural Conversation Flow: Ends with warm introduction instead of corporate pitch
Strategic Insight: Concrete examples beat abstract benefits every time. "That stubborn stain that finally goes away" is more convincing than any technical specification.
The Final Result: Sarah now has a personal, compelling story that connects emotionally while still delivering all the key business information. This is the difference between AI generation and human storytelling expertise.
