Question 1

Is Plotiar really free?

Accepted Answer

Plotiar's free plan includes up to 5 projects with unlimited documents, flowcharts, ideaboards, notes, tasks, and comments. You can export to TXT and DOCX. The Plus plan ($5/month or $50/year) adds unlimited projects, collaboration, PDF/EPUB export, and more. No trial period — the free tier stays free.

Question 2

Does Plotiar have anything like Novelcrafter's Codex?

Accepted Answer

Plotiar takes a different approach to worldbuilding. Instead of a dedicated codex with auto-tracking, Plotiar lets you create detailed notes organized in hierarchical folders within each project. You can keep character profiles, location descriptions, and lore alongside your manuscript in a structured project tree. Novelcrafter's Codex is more specialized for fiction worldbuilding.

Question 3

How does AI compare between Plotiar and Novelcrafter?

Accepted Answer

Both tools support BYOK (bring your own key). Novelcrafter's AI Workshop offers custom prompts, scene summarization, and character extraction with support for multiple providers including local AI models. Plotiar offers AI chat, text inspection, and manuscript analysis. Novelcrafter's AI is more deeply integrated into the fiction-writing workflow; Plotiar's AI is more general-purpose.

Question 4

Can I import my Novelcrafter manuscripts into Plotiar?

Accepted Answer

Export your manuscript from Novelcrafter as Word or Markdown, then copy the content into a Plotiar document. Plotiar's documents support rich text formatting, so most of your styling will carry over.

Question 5

How does collaboration pricing compare?

Accepted Answer

Novelcrafter's collaboration features require the Specialist tier at $20/month. On Plotiar, real-time collaboration with live cursors and comments is included in the Plus plan at $5/month (or $50/year). Only the project owner needs a Plus subscription; collaborators can join for free.
