    Flourish sets itself apart through:

    • Ease of use: No specific technical skills are needed thanks to its template-based system and intuitive user interface.
    • Storytelling: Flourish is uniquely designed to facilitate narrative visualizations, such as scrollytelling, interactive presentations, and audio-driven stories.
    • Flexibility: The Flourish SDK lets developers create custom templates without limitations on functionality or design.
