Haven't heard of any tool doing this but you can make a custom one for you,Shouldn't be that hard if the Dev knows what he's doing.
Example:
- I enter the Instagram alias A in a "monitoring database"
- Instagram account A post a story
-Automatically, I receive the story in a Notion dashboard for example or any place.
It would be great to be able to have the image and display it wherever you want.

I would hire someone to create a Chrome Extension you can run on your computer. Probably the best way to do it so you avoid having to use proxies and login issues.

You would need a bot that can constantly monitor the accounts and then notify you as soon as it notices a new story/post.
This post can be saved locally and a script could run every time a new post gets saved to be uploaded directly to Google Drive/dropbox/shared by email.
A handful of accounts might be needed with HQ proxies depending on how frequently and how many accounts you want to monitor and how quickly you burn through those accounts.
Nothing like this exists publically at the moment so a custom bot is your only solution.

not sure about mail posting but most popular bots supports that feature.

This is pretty easy to do to be honest, hire someone it shouldn't be too expensive .
I personally do account monitoring for other endpoints such as new posts but not really for stories as most people aren't interested in that , but it's the same principle .
Do not fall for the error of implementing a solution that depends on a single account to do it (such as the chroime extension suggestion) , you will regret it very fast .
I am not sure exactly what you are trying to accomplish here but I assume you want to use the stories for reposting content or something similar ?
So I am also assuming you don't want to do this for a single account but would rather have the possibility of monitoring multiple target s at the same time .
You should definitely aim for a scalable solution that will allow you to use multiple accounts with proxies to monitor multiple targets simultaneously .
Even if you were just monitoring 1 account it's still recommended you use more than 1 account to do the scraping, instagram scraping is a constantly evolving game and there's a fair chance the account you use might get flagged easily if all it's doing is scraping the same account over and over again every day ...
