Play tabletop RPGs whenever you want, solo or with friends. An AI Game Master runs a persistent world that remembers what you did and never resets the story.
Neural Initiative is an AI Game Master for fifth-edition and other tabletop RPGs. Start a campaign in minutes and play whenever you want, on your own or with friends. The AI narrates the world, runs the NPCs, calls for rolls, and adapts to whatever your party decides to do.
WHAT YOU CAN DO
- Play anytime. No need to schedule a table or wait on a human GM. Pick up a session on your phone whenever the mood strikes.
- Solo or multiplayer. Run a private one-player story, or invite friends and share the same live session.
- Bring a real book. Import a published adventure module you legally own and the AI runs the actual material, chapter by chapter.
- Build characters. Create a character right on your phone, or pull one in from your roster, and edit the sheet as you play.
- Roll real dice. A full 3D dice roller for the moments that matter.
- Hear the story. Optional voice narration reads scenes aloud.
- Persistent campaigns. Your world, characters, and story carry over between sessions and stay in sync across devices.
DICE THAT ACTUALLY DECIDE
Rolls are real and they stick. When the AI calls for a check, the dice are rolled for real and the result drives what happens next. A natural 1 can wreck a plan and a natural 20 can save the day, because the number lands before the story does. The AI does not quietly bend the outcome to a tidier scene. Your luck is your luck.
A STORY THAT COMMITS
Neural Initiative plays a campaign with a spine, not a string of disconnected scenes. The world remembers what you did, NPCs hold their grudges and their debts, and the arc you are on keeps moving toward its payoff. Choices have weight because the game carries them forward instead of resetting between sessions.
HOW IT WORKS
Neural Initiative is the companion to a hosted service at neuralinitiative.ai. Create an account, start a campaign, and play. The same campaigns are available on the web, so you can set things up on a big screen and play on your phone. Sign in with Apple, email, or your other connected accounts. Your data is encrypted in transit and your account is yours to delete at any time.
OPEN ENGINE
The engine behind Neural Initiative is open source, so if you would rather run it yourself on your own keys, that path stays open.
Gather your party and roll initiative.
Ratings & Reviews
The biggest update since launch, and most of it is already live in your app.
New
- The app now speaks 24 languages. It follows your phone's language automatically, with an override in Settings.
- Create an account with an email address right in the app.
- Text an invite link to a friend, or start a co-op adventure together in a couple of taps.
Improved
- Bring your whole character to the table at creation: subclass, spells, gear, coin, and the person underneath, all with reference-backed pickers and a Surprise me option.
- Build a campaign your way: pick the storyteller model, the narration language, and the table feel (difficulty, pace, dice, and shared control).
- A clear Party view with everyone's characters and experience.
- A long accessibility and polish pass across sign-in, character creation, and the table.
Fixed
- A batch of table-truths you reported, from clean NPC dialogue to smoother turns and forms that keep your work.
Thank you all for the time. May the story outlast the session.
