RPG Story Toolkit vs Saga20

RPG Story Toolkit is a workspace for writing stories, organizing world data, building timelines and maps, publishing a wiki, and exporting material for games. Its rich-text editor links mentions to database records, and those links update when a record is renamed. Users can define tables and fields for characters, items, locations, calendars, and other records. Timelines can be ordered or shown in a Gantt-style view; maps accept uploads, pins, and drawn regions.

The web app publishes documents and records as a browsable wiki at its own address, republishing project updates. Exports include JSON, CSV, TSV, Markdown, plain text, DOCX, and ZIP. The Mac desktop app stores projects as Markdown, JSON, and asset files and works offline. Automatic desktop-to-web sync requires Pro. Web Free is $0 and includes one project, up to three documents and image uploads, public wiki publishing, and export. Desktop is free; Pro is $5 a month. Browser and Mac desktop versions are available; the Windows desktop app is marked as coming soon. The project links to its code on GitHub and says users can inspect and modify it.

Saga20 turns tabletop role-playing sessions into notes, summaries, and an evolving campaign wiki. Record games at the table or upload audio and video from online or in-person sessions; the maker says long sessions are welcome. Speaker matching can connect players with voices in later recaps, and names and matches remain editable. The Campaign Journal follows active, dormant, and concluded quests and updates after each session. Wiki pages can cover characters, locations, factions, items, and custom entity types, with rich text, images, templates, and folders. Maps support routes, zones, and markers linked to wiki pages, while a campaign graph shows connections. Campaign Chat searches summaries and transcripts with world context across a campaign or within a session. Recaps can be published to Discord, and notes can be imported from Obsidian, Notion, Google Docs, and World Anvil. The free plan includes one session summary; paid plans start at $12.99/mo. Saga20 supports 25 languages and says it works with any RPG.
