| Name | NovelAI |
| Overview | NovelAI is an advanced AI tool designed to support authorship, storytelling, and virtual companionship. Utilizing sophisticated AI algorithms, it generates human-like writing based on user inputs, helping users draft fiction while retaining responsibility for editing and quality. Users can experiment with writing prompts, context and style in a natural-language interface; this does not mean they can currently train a new custom module. The platform features image generation for characters, powerful image models, and existing legacy custom modules and customizable interface themes. New custom-module training is no longer supported; existing custom modules are limited to compatible legacy models. Various pricing tiers are available, offering differing features and benefits. |

There is no ongoing free tier: after account registration, the one-time trial provides 50 text actions and 30 image generations up to 1024 × 1024. These trial allowances do not normally refresh. Image-generation credit costs and plan benefits vary. |

| App available? | NovelAI runs in supported desktop and mobile browsers. It can be added to a device home screen as a Progressive Web App (PWA); that is distinct from a native app-store application. |
