Saga20

Purpose

Saga20 is a campaign management tool designed specifically for Dungeons & Dragons (D&D), Pathfinder, and any TTRPG (tabletop role-playing game). Its target users are tabletop players and Dungeon Masters (DMs), and it aims to solve problems such as the cumbersome note-taking during sessions, storylines being easily forgotten, and worldbuilding being scattered. Whether you play heroic fantasy or Cthulhu-style horror, Saga20 officially claims it can adapt to your play style and supports any RPG system.

Main Capabilities

1. Session Recording and Transcription: Place a phone in the middle of the table to record offline tabletop sessions; for online sessions (such as via Discord), you can upload the recording file afterward. The official description says, "Upload any audio file, and we will turn it into session notes and automatically build a party encyclopedia."
2. Automatic Player Distinction: After the first session, Saga20 remembers each player's voice and automatically recognizes them in subsequent recordings, with no need for manual tagging. The official example shows "3 sample matches" and "2 sample matches."
3. Instant Summaries: After recording ends, the summary is ready before bedtime. Saga20 writes down key events and loose threads. After adding custom worlds and character backgrounds, the summaries become richer with each session because the system's understanding of the campaign gradually deepens.
4. Automatic Wiki Building: New characters and locations automatically get dedicated pages, and existing entries are updated with changes. Characters, NPCs, locations, factions, and items are all managed in the same workspace. You can link the world by @ mentioning any entity, the Campaign Graph automatically maps all connections, and entity pages update after each session.
5. Player Sharing: One-click sharing, and any player can read session summaries without an account. All sessions are automatically grouped by campaign.
6. Discord Integration: Connect the campaign to Discord and publish recaps with one click. Players receive beautifully formatted summaries in the channel, with no account required.
7. Player Character Ownership: Claimed characters have fully editable pages, images, character sheets, and a session history that updates after each session.
8. Modular Use: You can also start with just one part, such as D&D notes, session summaries, or a D&D worldbuilder.

How to Use

• Recording: For offline games, place a phone in the middle of the table to record; for online games, first record or download the Discord recording, then upload the audioFrequency file.
• Processing: After uploading, the system automatically transcribes, distinguishes players, generates summaries, and updates the encyclopedia.
• Sharing: Send to players via a one-click share link, or connect to Discord and publish a recap with one click.
• World Management: Create and manage characters, NPCs, locations, factions, and items in the same workspace, use @ mentions for linking, and view the automatically generated Campaign Graph.
• Import: The official FAQ mentions the issue of importing existing session notes, as well as importing existing campaign data from tools such as Google Docs, Obsidian, and World Anvil, but the page does not show specific steps or import formats, so detailed instructions are not yet provided.

Use Cases

• Offline or online tabletop sessions for various TTRPGs such as D&D, Pathfinder, and Call of Cthulhu (CoC).
• Groups that want to automatically record key session points and avoid taking notes manually.
• DMs who need to maintain long-term campaign worldbuilding, character relationships, and location changes.
• Groups that want to share recaps with players via Discord or links.

Limitations

• The official page lists common questions, including whether recordings are used to train models, whether player voices are stored, the security of recordings and voice data, phone recording quality, summary accuracy (whether it can understand inside jokes), sharing summaries, Discord online support, support for languages other than English, importing existing notes and campaign data, whether the encyclopedia updates automatically, and more, but the page does not provide specific answers to these questions, so they are not yet provided.
• Details such as whether Chinese or other non-English languages are supported, specific pricing (only mentions that the first session is free and no credit card is required), and data storage locations are not yet provided.
• It is impossible to determine the summary language capabilities, the specific implementation of the import feature, and the full differences between free and paid plans.
