I built a free web tool to automate 5e prep (Visual Encounter Graph, Cursed Items, Shops). Looking for veteran feedback!

[Update] v6.3 The Multiplayer & Memory Update is LIVE! 🚀

First off, thank you! Because of you guys stress-testing the app, we are still holding the #1 spot on the global Viberank charts! But with all that traffic, I noticed a new problem: DMs were using the app at the exact same time and accidentally stepping on each other's toes in the databases.

I just pushed v6.3 to completely solve this and upgrade the engine:

🔐 Multiplayer Campaign IDs: There is a new "Campaign ID" box in the sidebar. This acts like a private Room Code. Now, your combat snapshots and Infinite Archive lore are 100% isolated. No one else can accidentally overwrite your campaign!💽 Massive PDF Optimization: A few of you reported UI lag when uploading 300-page campaign modules into the Lore Weaver. I completely rewrote the memory allocation—the AI now offloads the math to the local hard drive. You can upload massive adventure paths and the app will stay lightning-fast.📌 UI Polish: The Quick Roll dice are now permanently pinned to your sidebar so they are always there when you need a sudden perception check.

Jump in, create a unique Campaign ID, and let me know how the engine feels!

I'm taking a quick breather from the code mines, but I'll be reading your feedback! Keep rolling 20s. 🐉

[Update] The "Zero-Math" Combat Tracker & Global VTT Bridge are Live!

Thank you guys for pushing DM Co-Pilot to the top of the charts! I’ve been reading all your feedback, and I just pushed a massive v6.4 update to solve two of the most annoying parts of being a DM:

  1. Doing math at 1 AM: The Initiative Tracker now has a Quick-Math UI. Just type the damage amount, click the blood drop icon 🩸, and the app calculates the monster's new HP instantly.
  2. Copy-Pasting to VTTs: I added a Global VTT Webhook to the sidebar. Paste your Foundry or Roll20 link there once, and the Bestiary, Magic Item Maker, and Villain Architect will automatically blast your creations straight into your live game.
Jump in, try the new combat tracker, and let me know what you want to see built next!
 

[Massive Update] The "Zero-Prep" Engine is Live (v6.4)

You guys asked for ways to completely eliminate the boring parts of DMing, and I spent the last 48 hours building the ultimate toolkit for you.

  1. The Mimic Engine (Vision AI): Take a picture of your physical monster manual with your phone. The app reads it and instantly blasts the stats into your Foundry/Roll20 game.
  2. The Memory Forge: The Audio Scribe now has a button that extracts all the new lore from your session audio and permanently injects it into your Campaign Archive. You never have to type session notes again.
  3. The Living Codex: Type a quick summary of who hates who, and the app builds an interactive, drag-and-drop web of your factions.
Go test it out and let me know if the physics on the drag-and-drop web feel smooth!
 

Hey everyone, first off, thank you so much for the feedback and reactions so far! It has been incredibly helpful as I continue to build this out.

I just pulled a late-night coding session and pushed a massive update (v6.4). Up until now, the tool has been heavily focused on prep, but tonight I bolted on an architecture designed specifically for live table running.

I would love to hear your thoughts on these new modules:

🎶 The Bardic Broadcast: I built a Spotify integration directly into the global sidebar. You can instantly swap between premium ambient playlists (Crowded Taverns, Creepy Forests, Epic Boss Fights). I isolated the media frame, so the music won't ever stutter or stop when you roll dice or click through other tools.

⏳ The Chrono-Log: A built-in dungeon time and torch tracker. When your party searches a room, just click "+10 Min." The app automatically calculates the absolute dungeon time passed and burns down your active torch supply. When the torch hits zero, the app throws a warning that the area is pitch black.

🔌 Global VTT Webhooks: You can now link your Foundry, Roll20, or Discord webhooks globally to beam your campaign data, monster stats, and dice rolls straight to your VTT.

The server is perfectly stable and the update is live right now. Let me know if these live-play features feel useful for your tables, or if there's anything you'd tweak! 🍻🐉
 

Subject: v6.5 is Live: The App Now Predicts the Future 🔮

Body:Welcome to the Masterwork Edition, DMs.

If you are logging into the DM Co-Pilot today, you are going to notice things are moving a lot faster. With the v6.5 Predictive Oracle Update, we focused entirely on letting you keep your hands off the keyboard during your live games.

Here is what your Co-Pilot can do as of today:

  • 👁️ The Auto-Fetch Oracle: Turn on the Audio Scribe, mention a monster, and watch its stats appear on your screen automatically.
  • 🔊 The Sound-Weaver: Cinematic audio, automated. Say trigger words like "Fireball" or "Dragon" into the mic, and the app will blast the sound effects over your table instantly.
  • 🔮 The Pre-Cog Engine: Head to the bottom of the Infinite Archive. Click the new Pre-Cog button, and the AI will read your campaign history to automatically write your next session for you.
What’s Next? (Teaser):We’ve given you the ultimate tools to run your game. But what if you need players? The Dev Team is officially architecting a global Matchmaker Database built directly into the app. Soon, the Co-Pilot won't just run your game—it will fill your table.

Log in, hit the mic, and cast Fireball. Let me know what you think! 🐉
 

Update: v6.6 The Scale & Community Patch is Live! 🚀

First off, I just want to say a massive thank you. Thanks to this community, DM Co-Pilot just crossed 450+ active users and hit the #2 spot globally for the month on Viberank!

Because the traffic has been so heavy, I’ve been heads-down upgrading the server architecture to handle the load. I just pushed v6.6 live, which includes some of your most requested features:

  • 📦 Bulk VTT Export: You don't have to export monsters one by one anymore. You can now use the Encounter Architect to generate a boss, their minions, and traps, and blast them all to Foundry/Roll20 in a single JSON payload.
  • 🤝 The Live Matchmaker: I built a live, globally synced database directly into the app so you can find players or DMs based on your timezone and playstyle.
  • 🛡️ The Community Vault: I've added an automated safety pipeline that scrubs out personal info (emails/phone numbers) so you can safely share your best monsters and encounters with the rest of the community!
The app is completely stable and ready for your weekend games. Keep the feedback coming—what should I build for v6.7? 🎲
 

Update: The Tabletop Eye & The Phantom Party (v6.6) are Live! 👁️🎲

First off, thank you guys so much for pushing the app to over 450+ active DMs this month! The feedback from this forum has been the absolute best part of building this.

I just pushed the v6.6 Masterwork update, and I added a feature for everyone who loves digital tools but refuses to give up rolling physical math rocks:

  • 👁️ The Tabletop Eye: I integrated a Vision AI into the Initiative Tracker. You roll a physical d20 in front of your webcam, and the AI reads the physical die, grabs the monster's modifier, and does the math for you on-screen (it even triggers balloons on a Natural 20!).
  • 👻 The Phantom Party: I upgraded the Encounter Architect with a multi-agent playtester. It literally spawns 4 AI personas (like a reckless Barbarian and a cautious Wizard) to run through your dungeon in the background and warns you where they are most likely to die.
  • 📡 Real-Time Player Portal: Your players can now open the portal on their phones, and it auto-syncs monster health/conditions in real-time as you track combat.
As always, it is 100% free with no accounts required. If you have a session this weekend, test out the Tabletop Eye and let me know if it accurately reads your dice!

Late Night Update: v6.7 The Automation Patch is Live! 🛡️

Before I head to bed, I wanted to drop one more massive update for your weekend games! I've been focusing heavily on "passive" tools so you don't have to keep clicking buttons while trying to run your game.

  • 🎙️ The Omniscient Scribe: Turn on the Audio Scribe, and it will now listen for rules confusion. If someone at the table asks how a condition or spell works, the RAW 5e rule will pop up on your screen automatically so you don't have to open a book!
  • 🚨 The Continuity Cop: Head to the Infinite Archive. Paste your session prep, and the AI will audit it against your campaign history to warn you about plot holes or contradictions (like reusing an NPC the party already killed).
  • 🔌 VTT Diagnostics Wizard: Having trouble exporting to Foundry? The VTT Bridge now features a built-in connection tester to help you easily diagnose local firewall and Ngrok issues.
As always, it's 100% free. Let me know if the Scribe accurately catches your rules questions this weekend!
