Frequently Asked Questions
How does AI session summarisation work?
Upload your RPG session as an audio file or paste a text transcript. CharGen's AI transcribes the audio (if needed), then extracts a structured summary: scene-by-scene recap, NPC appearances with dialogue quotes, location and item lists, and unresolved plot threads. The output feeds into a living campaign memory that tracks relationships and story arcs across sessions.
Can I upload Discord audio for session notes?
Yes. Record your Discord voice channel with any bot (such as Craig or Otter), export the audio file, and upload it to CharGen. The AI handles multi-speaker transcription and attributes dialogue to characters based on context. You can also paste a text transcript from a Discord chat log.
Does CharGen track NPCs across multiple sessions?
Yes. Every NPC mentioned in a session is added to your campaign's living memory with their appearance context, dialogue quotes, and relationships. When the same NPC appears in a later session, CharGen links the entries together so you can see a character's full arc across the campaign.
Is the session summariser free?
Your first session summary is free with no account required. After that, a free account covers additional sessions each month. Premium tiers unlock unlimited sessions, longer audio uploads, and priority processing.
