Your imagination. Your way of working.

Familiar’s creation workflow helps you get from a spark to an adventure you can run. Choose the workspace that fits you. You choose the hook and make the final editorial call.

The desktop app

A home for your whole campaign.

Talk through ideas, edit your notes, consult rules, and build modules in one visual workspace. Keep your characters, locations, and unfinished plots close at hand.

  • Campaign files and document previews
  • Guided briefs, hook selection, and draft review
  • PDF export and book preparation
Get the desktop appDesktop alpha. Requires a separately installed Codex CLI and sign-in.

The skill bundle + toolkit

Bring Familiar to your agent.

Keep the agent you already use. Content Studio guides the writing and visual assets; Publish Review checks, refines, and packages the result. The included toolkit saves native campaign files and formats your PDFs.

  • Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor, and OpenCode
  • The same Familiar skills used by the desktop
  • Shared bundle format, PDF renderer, and print service
Get the skill bundleUses your agent’s AI account. Setup requires Node.js, Python, and Poppler.

AI usage and printed books are paid for separately. Native campaign files can move between the app and skills.

Build the adventure. Keep the world.

Start with whatever you have: a villain, a place, a few lines about what happened last session. Develop it in conversation, then ask Familiar to draft the adventure. Your notes and finished work stay in a folder on your computer.
