LorePanic is an AI co-pilot for tabletop RPG Game Masters that searches your rulebooks in milliseconds, remembers every campaign detail, and transcribes your sessions live.
What is LorePanic?
LorePanic is a web-based AI assistant and Discord bot designed specifically for tabletop RPG Game Masters. It accepts uploaded PDFs (rulebooks, adventures, homebrew content) and uses OCR and full-text indexing to make them instantly searchable. In addition to search, it provides a campaign-aware chat AI that answers questions citing page numbers, and live session recording with automatic transcription and recap generation. The product was built by Georges, a longtime GM who wanted an AI that knew his own campaigns.
Key Features
- Instant Book Search — Upload any RPG PDF (scan or digital) and search across all documents in under a second with OCR and page-number citations. Works with D&D, Pathfinder, Call of Cthulhu, and homebrew.
- Campaign-Aware AI — Chat with an AI that has read your adventure, session notes, and character sheets. Ask "What's the innkeeper's name?" and get an answer sourced from your documents. No invented NPCs.
- Live Session Recording — Record sessions via browser or Discord bot with per-speaker audio tracks. Transcription is optimized for RPG terms (counterspell, owlbear).
- Automatic Recaps — After a session, get a structured recap with NPCs, locations, combat, loot, open threads, and player decisions, ready to paste into your campaign log.
- Whisper Suggestions — LorePanic listens to conversation and surfaces relevant rules or stat blocks in a sidebar before you need to search.
- Works with Any System — Accepts PDFs from any RPG system, including 30-year-old scanned modules via OCR. No format restrictions.
- Discord Integration — The Discord bot joins voice channels, records with per-speaker tracks, and posts transcripts/recaps to a text channel.
Who is it for?
- Dungeons & Dragons DMs who need to find rules instantly during play without flipping through books.
- GMs running homebrew campaigns who want an AI that actually knows their custom lore and NPCs.
- Groups using Discord who want automated session recording and recap generation without extra work.
- GMs who lose track of plot threads and need a searchable, AI-assisted campaign memory.
What can you do with LorePanic?
- Search rules mid-session: Type a question like "How does grappling work in D&D 5e?" and get the rule with page number in under a second. Try the demo.
- Get instant session recaps: End a session and LorePanic generates a structured recap including key events, NPCs spoken to, loot found, and open threads — no manual note-taking.
- Run with Discord: Invite the bot to your server, run
/lp, and it joins voice channels, records with per-speaker tracks, and posts the transcript and recap to a text channel automatically.
- Upload and query your entire library: Drop in published modules, third-party zines, and your homebrew PDFs. The AI indexes everything and answers questions with source citations.
How does LorePanic work?
- Upload your books — drop in PDFs (scanned or digital). OCR and indexing happen in the background, usually within minutes.
- Open a campaign — group documents, characters, and notes. The AI reads everything to become your campaign's memory.
- Run the session — use the browser interface or Discord. Search, ask questions, and optionally record. When the session ends, a recap is waiting.
