Frequently Asked Questions

The Archivist is a campaign journaling tool for tabletop RPG groups. It records your Discord sessions, creates transcripts with speaker labels, generates session recaps, and maintains a living wiki of your campaign world — all automatically.

The Archivist is system-agnostic. It works with D&D, Pathfinder, Call of Cthulhu, Fate, PbtA, and any other TTRPG. It adapts to your campaign's terminology and world.

Sign up for a free account, create a campaign, and invite The Archivist bot to your Discord server. Once connected, start a voice session and the system handles the rest — recording, transcription, and recap generation happen automatically.
