Sharing 3 generative AI apps for writing and storytelling

I love writing stories and spend hours every day using generative AI apps. For me, creation is entertainment itself. If you're looking for inspirations for AI assisted creations, hope this is helpful.

1. Povchat AI

What it is: AI story writing platform with unlimited characters and scenarios, good for fan fiction or interactive stories.

Pros:

- Really good storytelling-focused AI models, and the memory can last across thousands of turns.

- Large library of characters and long definition support, so you can create your own lorebook for original characters.

Cons:

- Some bots are poorly written and you need to choose carefully.

- Images generated are all anime styles while I hope it could be realistic.

2. WhatIfArt

What it is: AI anime maker for visual stories, with their unique format.

Pros: It's easy to make your own stories of your favorite characters with the presets.

Cons: Sometimes the AI generations are going another direction.

3. Sekai

What it is: Like TikTok but for mini-apps. You can create your own through vibe coding and share with friends.

Pros:

- Some games are fun to play, and the TikTok style makes me keeps scrolling.

- Easy to navigate around and find something that suits your interests.

Cons:

- You only like it when you are a gaming person or interested in coding.

- Can get tired when you have to make an effort to interact with everything.

Would love to try if you're building something! Let me know what you're up to.

My Personal tips for Creating Engaging AI Characters

Prompting roleplay characters for great interactive stories can be hard. I created 30+ characters with multiple AI models, and found some useful ways:

1. User AI to create cool avatars

Visual appeal matters. A great avatar will get you more views. I recommend Midjourney or Kling for making avatars.

2. Write a detailed system prompt

System prompt tells the AI exactly how to behave, speak and respond. The more detailed it is, the more consistent the character will be. I usually include backstories, personalities, knowledges and skills, relationship dynamics, etc.

Polybuzz allows you to include up to 10000 character count for the prompt so we can make good use of that.

3. Include backstories for IPs

For example, for an MHA or FPE character, you want them to know the main characters and the world setup from the shows.

4. Write a compelling first message

A great first message should hook people and make them want to chat more. I like to write meeting scenarios, dramatic conflict moments, or some mysterious encounters.

5. Make characters ask questions

This tip is still for first messages. You can include an open-ended question for players. Eg. "What brings you here?"

6. Provide suggested replies

Povchat allows you to provide 3 suggested replies at the opening of a conversation for a specific character. Try to make the 3 different plot paths, yes or no, maybe so!

7. Give your characters real quicks

Just a few ideas: they bite their nails when nervous, always forget where they put their phones, or collect weird vintage postcards or interesting rocks.

8. Use asterisks for character actions

It will make conversations more dynamic and fun, as if the characters are right in front of you.

9. Test and refine

Best characters evolve and improve over time. You can have conversations with your own character to see how they respond, look for inconsistencies in personality or behavior, and adjust system prompts accordingly.

10. Share with your friends on social media

Sharing your character will boost their popularity in the algorithm, so more people will play them! It will be super fun.

What characters do you like to create, and are there viral ones? Tell me about it!

Character AI alternatives for lorebooks or world building

Please drop the AI websites or apps that has built-in lorebooks or support very long definitions for characters.

Edit:

I've received a few recommendations so far. Many comments recommended SillyTavern, some mentioned Povchat, FictionLab and WyvernChat, and a few more. I'll test them and see how it goes. Thank you all!

Povchat AI Invite Code: U5E85 (first time sharing here)

Hi, I'm playing PovChat AI for roleplay and interactive stories. It's a classic platform that imo has the best model quality of all the apps I've tried. As for memory consistency, I've chatted hundreds of messages if not thousands, and Povchat has no problem memorizing plots and my preferences. I paid for the Storyteller subscription for a few months for image generation before I'm broke lol.

If you sign up using my code U5E85, both us will get free points. Thank you!

Do you play with different characters all the time?

I do it all the time. Sometimes I lose patience after just a few turns and hop to the next one right away. It feels like changing boyfriends every hour. I know povchat is great with long term memory or whatever but seems that I'm not enjoying this benefit lol

Chai is missing so many features

Is it just me or do other people also want these features that other ai chatting apps have? I'd branch plots, generate images in conversations, customize chat backgrounds, and set response style or lengths. The subscription costs almost the same as other apps if not more expensive. I used to love the app a lot but it seems that other apps are having so many updates and new features.
