What are the subscription tiers and their features?

SwiftPrep offers three subscription tiers: Free, Companion, and Power. All tiers include full campaign management features. Paid tiers add AI-powered capabilities and higher generation quotas.

Which Tier Is Right for You?

Stay on Free if you are evaluating SwiftPrep or primarily use it for organization rather than AI generation. You get the full entity system, relationships, session planning, and import/export with limited AI.

Choose Companion if you want AI to help with session prep. You get campaign-aware generation, the Session Companion chat, and 150 generations per month. Most DMs find this covers regular prep.

Choose Power if you prep intensively, run multiple campaigns, or want the most sophisticated AI features. You get relationship suggestions, advanced analysis, priority processing, and 400 generations per month.

Tier Details

Free Tier

Best for: Trying SwiftPrep, organization-focused users, light AI needs

The Free tier gives you SwiftPrep's full organizational power:

  • Create unlimited campaigns
  • All 8 entity types with all fields
  • Build relationships and visualize them in the graph
  • Plan sessions and link content
  • Import from Fantasy Grounds
  • Export to JSON, Markdown, CSV

AI limitations:

  • 15 generations per month
  • Basic Super Swift generators (no campaign context)
  • No Session Companion chat
  • No background suggestions

15 generations is enough to try AI features, but you will run out quickly if you rely on them.

Companion Tier

Best for: Regular prep sessions, campaign-aware generation, brainstorming

Price: $7.99/month

Everything in Free, plus:

Campaign-aware generation When you generate content, the AI considers your existing entities, relationships, and story threads. Output fits your world instead of being generic fantasy.

Session Companion chat An AI assistant for brainstorming, in-session help, and developing ideas through conversation. Attach entities for context-aware responses.

Full Super Swift access All 8 generators with campaign context enabled.

Background suggestions (basic) SwiftPrep analyzes your campaign and suggests:

  • Potential relationships between entities
  • Forgotten entities that have not appeared recently
  • Unresolved plot threads

150 generations per month Enough for regular prep. A typical session prep might use 10-20 generations.

Power Tier

Best for: Intensive prep, multiple campaigns, most sophisticated AI

Price: $14.99/month

Everything in Companion, plus:

AI relationship suggestions More sophisticated relationship analysis that identifies subtle connections based on backstory, shared history, and story implications.

Advanced background suggestions Deeper analysis including connection hints that identify story opportunities you might have missed.

Extended context windows The AI considers more of your campaign at once, producing more coherent and connected results.

Priority AI processing Faster response times during peak usage periods.

Advanced campaign analysis Deeper insights into your campaign structure, pacing, and story health.

400 generations per month For power users who prep intensively or run multiple campaigns.
