Novelcrafter Your AI-powered writing platform for dreaming, drafting, and delivering your story.

What is Novelcrafter?

Novelcrafter provides a comprehensive platform tailored for writers of various genres and styles, from beginners to published authors. It integrates organization with inspiration through its central feature, the Codex, a dynamic wiki that tracks characters, places, lore, and more, automatically linking elements for a deeper understanding of the story world. This Codex can be shared across books within a series, eliminating repetitive data entry.

The platform offers unique planning modes designed to help writers identify plot holes and inconsistencies early in the writing process. Novelcrafter incorporates smart AI tools for brainstorming, writing, and reviewing, allowing users to control the extent of AI involvement. It supports integration with various AI models like GPT-4, Claude, Gemini, and local models via LM Studio or Ollama. Collaboration features enable authors to work together, invite contributors, and manage writing teams.
