I kept adding new characters, and it was difficult for me to keep track of everything going on in the story. I wasn't organized at all.
I do have a subscription to Claude, and it helps, sure, but it didn't exactly build a graph of all the story elements connecting together. Throwing 20 chapters into one context was just terrible at narrowing its focus.
I started building this tool as a way to help me with a few things...
First, was replace Google Docs, because that thing lagged like crazy after 20~ chapters.
Second, was scanning my chapters. I wanted to automate creating a graph of characters, places, factions, objects, monsters, everything. I even started mapping out plots, threads, promises, and events. I threw it all into a database, and am able to lay it all out on the table, in an easy to absorb format.
Want to see where someone traveled throughout the story? What about when they encountered others? Well, now I can! Replacing names and all their aliases throughout the whole book? Easy peasy. What about fixing plot holes? No problem, we can fix those too.
Anyways, I took the extra effort to make it available for everyone by throwing it on on k3s and building the extra framework around the workspace.
It's completely free to use. Scanning chapters requires AI credits, which you get 50 for free at signup. Enough to scan about 15 chapters, or start a new story.
If you need more credits, let me know and I'll gift you more.
