Novelcrafter

Piattaforma per la scrittura di romanzi basata su una bibbia narrativa, che consente agli autori di integrare il proprio fornitore di IA anziché usare un unico modello incluso.

In inglese

Novelcrafter is a bootstrapped, Hamburg-based writing platform founded in 2023 by German developer and author Leonie Grabel, who built the first version to help herself outline and draft a novel in English, her second language. What started as a solo side project has grown into a small remote team spanning Germany, the UK, and the US, serving well over 100,000 registered authors. The product centers on the Codex, a structured story bible for characters, locations, and lore that automatically tracks mentions across a manuscript, paired with scene-level outlining and chapter planning. Rather than bundling a single AI model, Novelcrafter uses a bring-your-own-key approach, letting writers connect OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Mistral, OpenRouter, or locally hosted Ollama models to its Codex-aware prompts.
