Why

As your story grows, your world falls apart. It doesn't have to.

As an epic grows, hundreds of names, relationships, and rules pile up. Once this information is scattered across Word files and memory, staying consistent gets hard.

The scattered way

  • Your character's eye color is written differently in three files
  • "Was this town in the north or the south?"
  • You dig through old notes just to find out who's related to whom
  • You lose time searching for information before you even start writing

With yazar.io

  • Character details stay up to date and consistent in one place
  • You reach location details instantly
  • Characters, organizations, and family ties are all connected
  • You focus on your story instead of searching for notes
Features

Everything that keeps a world standing

It all works like a connected wiki. Click a character; get to the location they've been to, the group they belong to.

Character wikis

Rich characters with a portrait, profile, and relationship web. Who, from where, with whom, at a glance.

Locations

Cities, forests, passes. Save your geography, link it to characters and events.

Groups & Dynasties

Cults, guilds, dynasties. Keep power dynamics and memberships in one place.

Lore & Rules

Your magic system, history, legends. Your own world's encyclopedia, always on hand.

Family Tree

Draw generations of a dynasty with drag-and-drop, reconnect any branch anytime. Who's related to whom, clear at a glance.

Story Notebook

10 note types, status tracking (from idea to used). Just mention an entity's name and it links itself - even deleted notes come back.

Linked Pages

Just type a name, it links itself - or type @ to pick one instantly. Every page comes with a backlink panel showing who mentions it.

Field Templates

Shape the profile for each entity type your way. Add the fields you need, hide the ones you don't.

Author Card

Your public @username profile. Your books, your links, your socials, one page, free forever.

Ecosystem

A world where everything is connected

A character lives in a location, belongs to a group, touches a piece of lore. yazar.io keeps these threads; not a single detail gets lost. Everything feeds from one single place, your world.

Pricing Questions

What's included in the free plan?

On the Yazar plan you can create 2 books, add up to 15 records per entity type in each book, and use 50 MB of image storage. Notes, Glossary, Timeline, Author Card, Family Tree, and export are also included.

What exactly does "Unlimited" mean?

Unlimited features are provided without a daily usage cap for normal individual authoring and world-building use. Bots, automation, bulk data generation, or usage that consumes the service to an unusual degree may be restricted.

When am I asked for payment information to upgrade to Yazar Pro?

Only when you choose to upgrade to Yazar Pro and enter Paddle's secure checkout. No payment information is requested on the Yazar (free) plan.

Will I be charged without my consent?

No. You're only charged once you confirm payment at Paddle's checkout. Yazar Pro is a monthly subscription and you can cancel anytime.

If I move from the paid plan back to the free plan, is my content deleted?

No. Your content is not deleted when your plan ends. The first 15 entities you created for each entity type stay editable; entities above that limit are preserved as read-only - you can still view, export, and delete them, you just can't change their content. Upgrading to Yazar Pro instantly makes all of your entities editable again.
