Features

Everything the table needs

Gameplay-first chat that defers prep and maps to DND Cards — and does dice, conjures, characters, and whole sessions exceptionally well.

New — beta

Autopilot DM

  • Import a module PDF — chapters and locations become playable scenes
  • Pick a page range to skip front matter and appendices
  • Optional AI polish turns raw PDF text into spoken read-aloud
  • Or generate a one-shot outline from a single prompt
  • The AI DM reacts to table chat, narrates, and calls for checks with DCs
  • Combat too — it rolls initiative, runs the monsters with audited attacks, and prompts each player on their turn
  • Start, pause, resume, or take the chair back at any moment
New

Character builder

Auditable dice
