Turn your drilling announcements into an interactive, on-brand drilling program update — an explorable map and a scrollable story shared as a link. Here's the full build, screen by screen, in about fifteen minutes.

StoriBot turns your drilling data and house style into an interactive drilling program update — an explorable map paired with a scrollable narrative, every hard number traced back to a source file and drafted in your own voice. Below is the whole build, one screen at a time. From a blank workspace to a shareable link takes about fifteen minutes.

Why StoriBot fits mining investor relations

  • On-brand, on-message. Customise StoriBot with your brand guidelines and house voice so every update reads like yours. The AI narrates; your data computes the numbers, not the model.
  • Your announcements are enough. Upload the drilling announcements you've already published to the ASX — collars, assays and cross-sections included — and StoriBot builds the map and narrative from them.
  • Always current. Edit and refresh the same link as new results come in — no re-export, no v2 floating around.

Step 01

Home page

The StoriBot home page listing your previous storis with the New Stori button

This is your StoriBot home page. It lists every stori you've built so far. To begin a new one, click New Stori.

Step 02

Choose a template

The template picker open on the New Stori screen, with the drilling program update template highlighted

After clicking New Stori, you'll see the template gallery. For this build, choose Drilling program update.

Step 03

Upload your data

The data upload step with drill result files attached and the Next button

First, upload your published ASX drilling announcements — they already contain the collar tables, assay results and cross-sections StoriBot needs to build the map and the narrative, so no extra data preparation is required. These become the source of truth for every hard number and claim in the update — if the update states a figure, it traces back to one of these. When your files are in, click Next to continue.

Step 04

Add supporting context

The context upload step with a previous investor presentation attached

Next, add supporting context. This is the material that might help shape the narrative or provide an example to follow — here, we've uploaded a previous investor presentation to base the style off. You can also add your own prompt or anything else that might steer the output towards what you have in mind. Everything in this step is optional. Once these are attached, click Next to continue.

Step 05

Choose skills

The skills selection screen with the drilling program defaults left unchanged

This is the skills screen. You can review and add any additional skills you think might be useful, but for this and any other template, you can leave the defaults as they are — the selection is already tailored to the drilling program. Click Next to continue.

Step 06

Launch the workspace

The workspace spinning up after clicking Create

After you click Create, StoriBot opens your workspace. It takes a minute or so to spin up. The benefit is you get an entire workspace, which significantly extends what you can do with StoriBot. Once the workspace is ready, the agent will start building your update automatically.

Step 07

The agent starts

The agent reading your uploads and beginning the build automatically

When you start from a template, like in this case, StoriBot begins building the update automatically from your data and context. You can refine the output at any time by typing additional instructions in the agent sidebar.

Step 08

Answer the agent's questions

The agent asking a clarifying question while the draft builds

The agent may ask a question or two to tailor the update — which prospect to lead with, whether to include the full intercept table, or anything else it needs clarified. Make your choices and click through — you can refine anything further once the first draft is done.

Step 09

First draft and review

The finished first draft alongside the agent's automatic code review

When the first draft lands, the agent spawns a reviewer to check the build end to end. You don't have to wait for it — view, edit, or request changes while the review runs in the background. Simply type any changes you want into the agent sidebar and the agent will rebuild the update for you.

Step 10

Preview the stori and its slides

The interactive drilling map view with the slide sub-menu in the bottom-left corner

To swap between the interactive map and the scrollable, story-telling slides, use your arrow keys or click the sub-menu in the bottom-left corner. The map is for exploring — holes, intercepts and prospects in place — while the slides carry the narrative walk-through.

Step 11

Edit the words and numbers

The edit-text mode open, with individual words and figures selectable

For specific wording changes within the update, open Edit text in the sub-menu. You can then click any word or number directly and change it in place.

Step 12

Make broader changes

The agent sidebar with a plain-English request to restructure the update

For bigger changes — repositioning sections, adding or removing elements, or changing what the map or a chart shows — describe what you want in plain English in the agent sidebar, like the example shown here.

Step 13

The agent rebuilds in the background

The agent working in the background to apply the requested changes

The agent then starts work in the background and makes the changes — you can keep reviewing while it runs.

Step 14

Share the stori

The share dialog creating a new link with access preferences

Once you're happy with the final product, open the sub-menu in the bottom-left corner, select Share, click New share link, and choose your preferences. The link is copied to your clipboard, ready to send. The same stori can also go out as a send-ready email or an embed — one source, every channel.

Your turn

That's the full build: data in, interactive drilling program update out, every number traced to source. Build your own at app.stori.bot.
