Stories to Tell
Four steps to an
immersive experience
From venue onboarding to a visitor pressing play — HistoryTeller is designed to be effortless for staff and unforgettable for guests.
We compose the story
HistoryTeller's narrative engine draws on academic and primary sources to draft rich, layered stories for every room, object, or landmark — fact-checked, date-verified, written with care. Curators and historians refine the final draft, bringing local insight to scripts that are already grounded in research.
Place the QR codes
We supply elegant printed QR plaques or digital overlays. Visitors scan with any smartphone camera — no app download, no friction.
Visitors hear the story
A beautifully crafted audio guide plays instantly — narrated by premium AI voices, chapter by chapter.
You gain insights
See how visitors use your sites — scans, plays, completion rates, your most-popular stories and languages, and, where the visitor paywall is on, how many unlocked the full guide. A private, code-gated dashboard; aggregate only, never anything that identifies a visitor.
Stories already
in the walls
From manor parlours to museum galleries to garden landscapes — picture your space ready to bring its history to life.
Your Manor
The panelled parlour, the great staircase, the servants' quarters below — every room a chapter your visitors are waiting to hear.
Your Museum
From Roman bronzes to Victorian collections — every gallery, every case, narrated for the visitors walking past.
Your Garden
The formal terraces, the kitchen garden, the rare specimens — landscapes and the families who shaped them.
Every visitor hears it
in their language
HistoryTeller ships today in 8 languages — visitors pick theirs and the whole experience, narration and all, switches instantly. Built on AI narration that natively supports 40+ languages, so more roll out alongside our launch partners.

We handle content creation
HistoryTeller's narrative engine drafts the scripts and voices them with premium AI narration, ready to listen. Historians and curators refine where they wish — you approve every chapter.
Accessible & inclusive
Audio is a naturally accessible medium. We're working toward WCAG 2.1 AA across the surrounding interface, with playback controls built for every visitor — see our accessibility statement.
Private insights dashboard
A private dashboard shows how each site performs — visitor numbers, plays, completion rates, top stories, and the language mix, plus paid unlocks where the paywall is enabled. Aggregate only, with no personal data about individual visitors. Already a partner? Open your dashboard →

What venues ask first
We believe every place
has a story worth hearing
History is not preserved in glass cases — it lives in the air of the rooms where it happened. HistoryTeller puts that air back into the walls.
ERZ Nova is a heritage technology company founded on the belief that the stories of the past should be accessible to everyone — in any language, at any venue, on any day. HistoryTeller is our flagship product: a QR-triggered audio guide platform built for the world's heritage properties.
Authentic Storytelling
Every script is grounded in academic and primary sources, fact-checked claim by claim, and shaped for the rooms it will be heard in.
Inclusive by Design
Built with accessibility and inclusion in mind — and multilingual today, so the same story reaches every visitor who walks through the door, with more languages on the way.
Technology with Purpose
We use cutting-edge AI voice technology — but always in service of the human story, never as a replacement for it.
