What is included
Everything you need to keep a complex novel coherent.

Relationship mapping, continuity warnings, import, export, backups, and restore points support serious drafting and revision work.
Questions
Pricing FAQ
Can I start with a free trial?
Yes. Creating an account starts you on the Draft Desk evaluation plan, so you can try the workspace before choosing a paid subscription.
Can I subscribe without using the trial?
Yes. Choose a paid plan from this page. If you are not signed in, PlotDirector will ask you to log in before continuing to checkout.
Can I change plan later?
Yes. Signed-in users can manage subscription changes from the account subscription area.
What happens to my work if I cancel?
Your existing story data remains in PlotDirector. Your account may return to the application-managed Draft Desk level after the paid subscription ends.
Is PlotDirector suitable for a series?
Yes. The higher plan limits are designed for authors managing multiple books, long arcs, and larger casts.
Do I need a credit card for the trial?
The registration flow creates the evaluation workspace. Payment details are only handled when you choose a paid subscription through Stripe Checkout.
