Your first campaign in four guided steps

There is a /trust page now. What we do with your transcripts, who owns the chronicle text, how we keep our work honest. The link is in the footer, in every language we ship.

Assign a hero to many hooks at once. Soft-delete a stack of stale hooks in one motion. The Prep tab finally treats hooks the way a DM actually edits them between sessions.

Entity connections render as a calm sentence list — "Bramble is Rourke's mentor" — with controls that announce themselves on hover, keyboard-safe focus order, and an Undo for every change.

The campaign story view has a real session counter, chapter-like acts grounded in what actually happened at the table, drop-cap typography, and prose that flows instead of summarizing.

Open Upload from a campaign card and the campaign is pre-selected. From the GM Prep checklist, the campaign comes along too. Inside a campaign, the header gets its own Upload button when you are eligible to add a session.

On phones, the campaign-create sheet now reaches the bottom of the screen. The system picker shows the five popular systems with a chevron for the rest. Audio uploaded into a notes-only campaign gets an honest amber prompt instead of vanishing.

The landing page has a "From the workshop" strip pointing to the latest release post. There is a Blog link in the footer in every language. When a new post lands, you will see a one-time toast in the app the next time you open it.

The Critical Role demo campaign has a "Sign up to clone this campaign" CTA — open it, sign up, and the demo's hooks and scenes are waiting in your own workspace. Russian and German players can finally find the demo from the landing nav.

New accounts open to a guided wizard instead of a blank dashboard — campaign, branch, party, and first upload, all in under five minutes.

Every email from Epic's Echo — welcome, recap ready, credit top-up — now arrives in the same warm-gold palette and type used throughout the app.

Forty-nine popular adventure modules now carry a curated cast list — choose one at campaign setup and Epic's Echo already knows the key NPCs and locations.

After dropping your session recording, a progress bar and live status fill the wait — no more staring at a frozen screen for up to a minute.

The hero pitch, welcome-email subject line, and first-session checklist all got cleaner words — shorter, plainer, without the overreach.

Scroll past the pricing hero and a 'Start free — no credit card required' button follows you down the page. A new FAQ entry explains what to do if you don't have a recording yet.

Each paid plan now lists exactly what lands in your account per month — session recaps, audio, DM notes, wiki queries, and more — before you pick a tier.

Members who want a higher tier are now taken to a dedicated page inside the app — their current plan shown next to the next step — instead of the public pricing page.

The sign-in page now starts with your email. Returning members get the usual options; first-time visitors go straight to magic-link or Google sign-in, then pick a display name.

Confirm a name in the wiki and Epic's Echo rewrites it wherever it appears — recaps, outlines, and hooks — including Russian name variants.

Quotes no longer vanish when you sync after renaming a character or editing the session. Previously saved quotes are corrected in place — not replaced.

Characters and locations that appear in the source text and have been seen before now auto-confirm, so your wiki fills in without extra review clicks.

Epic's Echo now warns before overwriting a recap you hand-edited. Story Sync shows a confirmation prompt instead of silently discarding your changes.

On narrow phones, hook card titles and section headers no longer get pushed off-screen by long names.

Tab bars in dialogs and panels stopped clipping the last tab when content was long.

Changing your subscription tier was returning an error for every paying user since May 9 — the upgrade and downgrade flows are fully restored.

The scroll, arrow, and sparkle icons in your activation and welcome emails were invisible against the dark header — they now render clearly in Gmail and Apple Mail.

A quirk in Gmail and Apple Mail was hoisting the opening heading above the card in 11 different email templates — all fixed, every layout now renders in the right order.

Clicking any entity card in the demo now opens a side preview instead of navigating to a page that requires an account — eleven users hit that wall in the past two weeks.

A quarter of new signups were bouncing within 30 seconds because the app sent them to the sign-in page right after they'd just created their account — that redirect is gone.

If your last-opened campaign was removed, the app now clears the stale reference quietly — three users were triggering over 85 silent background errors each before this landed.

The first step of the new-campaign wizard used to require three characters in the name field before Continue enabled — the minimum is now a single character, matching what the dialog actually checks.

The in-app toast pointing to the latest release post is now muted for the first seven days on a new account — 23% of signups were clicking off to the blog instead of finishing their first session setup.

Browsing to an /es, /fr, or /pt URL no longer dead-ends — Epic's Echo now routes you to the English page while those language versions are being built.

Tapping a quest on the quest board in demo mode — board or mobile — now opens a preview sheet, the same way entity cards do. The sign-in gate no longer fires on the first click.

No detour through the sign-in page after verification. The demo cleared up background errors too, and pricing tier buttons now point to sign-up instead of sign-in.

A stale or invalid campaign link could trap the upload page in a silent error loop. The page now recovers automatically and clears the bad link.

Re-running Story Sync used to undo entities you'd already confirmed and could spawn duplicate wiki entries. Confirmed decisions now stick and the same character no longer appears twice.
