The authoring layer

You write the stories. Architect builds the game data.

You write the lore and stories. Architect turns it into structured entities, mapped relationships, branching narratives, game logic, and engine-ready exports.

What is Architect?

LoreWeaver Architect is a narrative design environment that transforms existing lore, notes, and story documents into structured entities, mapped relationships, and engine-ready exports. It uses AI to extract characters, locations, factions, and story arcs from unstructured prose, then lets designers build branching narratives on a visual canvas, define gameplay behaviour and rulesets, localize the whole world, and export to Unity, Unreal, or JSON. Teams share one canon with roles and history, and a full CLI gives coding agents the same reach as the web app. Architect starts free.

01How it works

Lore in. Game data out.

Six steps, one pipeline

Step 01

Import Your Lore

Upload your documents, notes, and world bibles. Architect chunks and processes them automatically. No reformatting. No restructuring. Just drag and drop.

Lore upload and import interface
  1. 01PDF, Word, Markdown, and plain text
  2. 02Confluence, Notion, and Google Drive import
  3. 03Handles documents of any size

Step 02

AI Generates Your Schema

Architect reads your lore and suggests entity types and fields tailored to your world. Characters, locations, factions, items, arcs, quests. You review and customize everything.

AI-generated schema management
  1. 01Characters, locations, factions, items, arcs, quests, and your own types
  2. 02Custom fields and types for your project
  3. 03Full control over what gets extracted

Step 03

Extract and Review Entities

AI pulls every character, location, item, faction, and concept from your lore. Color-coded, searchable, and fully editable. You approve what stays.

Extracted entities list view
  1. 01Hundreds of entities extracted in minutes
  2. 02Merge duplicates, edit details, add new ones
  3. 03Every entity is yours to refine

Step 04

Map Relationships

See how everything connects on an interactive graph canvas. Relationships are auto-resolved from your lore. Refine them visually.

Visual relationship graph
  1. 01Interactive graph with all entity connections
  2. 02Filter by entity type, search by name
  3. 03Click any node to inspect and edit

Step 05

Design Narrative Structure

Build branching stories on a node-based canvas. Arcs, beats, and scenes with conditional logic and project variables. See how your narrative flows before it ships.

Node-based narrative story canvas
  1. 01Visual flowchart for story arcs and beats
  2. 02Conditional branching with expressions
  3. 03Drill into any arc to design scene-level detail

Step 06

Export to Your Engine

Templated exports for Unreal, Unity, and more. Custom templates let you match any pipeline. One click and your narrative data is engine-ready.

Advanced export with engine templates
  1. 01Unreal DataTable and Unity ScriptableObject
  2. 02JSON, XML, CSV, and custom templates
  3. 03Filter by entity type or specific entities

02The shift

Automate the slow work. Focus on the creative.

Architect removes production friction, not your creative voice.

Before Architect

  • Writers spend weeks structuring lore across spreadsheets, wikis, and docs
  • 2 to 4 week handoff lag between narrative docs and game implementation
  • Consistency breaks across hundreds of thousands of words
  • Manual reformatting for every engine and every iteration

With Architect

  • AI extracts and structures entities from your existing documents
  • Engine-ready export in the same session you import
  • Relationships auto-resolved across your entire lore base
  • Templated exports for Unity, Unreal, JSON. No reformatting.

03Built for production

Built for production, not demos.

Everything is structured, editable, and yours.

Visual Relationship Mapping

01

See how every character, faction, and location connects. Not in a spreadsheet. On an interactive graph, with a wiki view your whole team can read.

Node-Based Story Canvas

02

Design arcs, beats, and actions with branching that turns on real game state. Generate story arcs inside your world, then check that a player can reach the ending before anything ships.

Templated Engine Export

03

Not just JSON dumps. Exports shaped to your own engine schema, checked before they ship, with custom templates for Unity, Unreal, and any pipeline you run.

Gameplay and Rulesets

04

Give any character, place, or item actions your engine can run. Bind a ruleset and fill stat blocks from the rules you actually play by.

Localization Lens

05

View and export the whole world in another language without touching the original. Translate in bulk, proof dialogue line by line.

Collaboration and History

06

See who is working where, comment anywhere in the world, review drafts before they become canon, and go back to any checkpoint. Nothing is ever lost.

04Teams and agents

One canon. Every seat. Every agent.

Studios and seats

01

Writers hold seats and roles, reviewers approve drafts before they become canon, and everyone works from one shared world. Viewers never take a seat.

Built for coding agents too

02

Everything the web app does is available from the command line, so your coding agent can run the pipeline as part of your build. An agent never gets more authority than the person who set it up.

05Field notes

What early access users are saying.

We can cut weeks out of the production cycle.
Elena · Indie Game Studio Lead
Upload document, click a few buttons, and boom. Ready.
Noah · Indie Game Developer
This is amazing! One file, very generic, and it mapped it out perfectly.
Sarah · Professor of Game Design

06The pipeline

From creation to execution.

Architect and Director are built to work together. One authors the narrative, one runs it.

Architect

01

Builds your narrative systems: quests, dialogue, structure. The authoring layer.

Director

02

Runs them in real time: behavior, adaptation, emergence. The runtime layer.

Architect is not another dialogue editor. It starts where no other tool does: with your existing lore. It extracts, structures, connects, and formats. The creativity is yours. The production work is not.

07Questions

Architect FAQ

What is LoreWeaver Architect?

Architect is a narrative design environment that turns existing lore, notes, and story documents into structured entities, mapped relationships, and engine-ready exports. You can extract characters, locations, factions, and story arcs from unstructured prose, build branching narratives on a visual canvas, and export to Unity, Unreal, or JSON.

How much does Architect cost?

Architect starts free. Free gives you one project and every authoring tool. Paid plans run from 5 EUR a month (Starter) through Pro and Max to Studio+ at 200 EUR per writer seat with no base fee. Every plan includes the whole pipeline; plans differ in depth, priority, and weekly AI usage. Nothing you make is capped and your world exports whole on every plan.

What can I import into Architect?

Plain text, Markdown, Word documents, and PDFs on every plan. Pro and above can also pull pages straight from Confluence, Notion, and Google Drive.

Which game engines can I export to?

Unity and Unreal Engine, plus JSON, XML, CSV, and custom templates for any other pipeline. Every export is editable, and a world bundle lets you take your whole world with you.

Does Architect use AI, and do I lose creative control?

Architect uses AI to accelerate extraction and structuring, but you keep 100% creative control. Every entity, relationship, and branch is reviewable and editable. Nothing ships to your game without your approval.

Can I use Architect without Director?

Yes. Architect is a standalone narrative design tool. You can use it purely to structure your lore and export to whatever runtime you already have.

Is Architect suitable for solo developers and small teams?

Yes. Solo developers and worldbuilders start on Free or Starter. Studio+ adds writer seats, roles, and one shared canon for teams, and viewers are never counted.

Can my coding agent use Architect?

Yes. Everything the web app does is available from the command line, on your own machine, so a coding agent can run your pipeline. An agent never gets more authority than the person who set it up. Command line access is included from Starter upward.
