The companies we trust to help us build OutaStory
OutaStory works with a small set of partners whose products and expertise underpin the platform. We pick partners on the same criteria we apply to ourselves: clear contracts, solid engineering, and respect for the people on the other end of the screen.
OutaStory runs on Microsoft Azure — the platform's APIs, AI services, container runtime, search index, and storage are all hosted on Azure. As a Microsoft Solutions Partner, ThreeB IT (the team behind OutaStory) has direct access to Microsoft engineering support and the latest cloud capabilities, which is why new features land here quickly and reliably.

Auth0 (an Okta company) is OutaStory's identity provider. Every sign-in, every social login, every account-recovery flow goes through Auth0's infrastructure. Outsourcing identity to a specialist means we never store passwords, never reinvent multi-factor auth, and never have to argue about whether our login flow is secure enough — Auth0 has already proved it.

ElevenLabs builds what many consider the most natural-sounding AI voices in the world: text-to-speech and speech models that don't sound like a robot but like a human — with stress, pacing, and emotion. In 2026 OutaStory was accepted into the ElevenLabs Grants programme, which gives selected early-stage companies access to this technology. For a platform whose ambition is to offer every story as audio too, that's a real gift: even more lifelike narration, multilingual voices, and — further out — conversational read-along companions.

Franz + Partner is a German tax-consulting firm that handles OutaStory's accounting, tax filings, and audit-readiness work. They run a "digital tax office" model that fits how the business actually operates — every invoice, every payout, every revenue-share statement flows through their pipeline so we can stay compliant without slowing down.
