Tableward is a live companion tool for tabletop RPGs. Show your players the map, the monsters, and the moment — while you stay in control behind the screen.
No credit card. Free during beta. Cancel by closing the tab.
"Tabletop RPGs are about people sitting around a table — or a Discord call — telling a story together. We don't want to replace any of that. We want to take the boring parts off the DM's plate so the good stuff has more room to breathe."
Whether your party gathers in a living room or across timezones, the setup is the same: you stay behind the screen, they see the world.
You run the session from your laptop. The TV mirrors the player view — the map, the tokens, the fog peeling back as the party walks into the room. You keep the DM panel; they get the show.
Your laptop is the DM panel. A tablet in the middle of the table — or a second monitor turned toward the players — shows the live player view. The two stay perfectly in sync.
Share the player link with everyone. They open it in a browser — no account, no install. As you reveal map sections, place tokens, or zoom into a creature's portrait, they see it live.
Only what's live in the app today. The workbench section below covers what's still being shaped.
The beta is free during this phase. AI features are limited per week so we can keep the lights on while we build. We'll be honest about what's stable and what's still being shaped.
Describe a monster, get a portrait. Goodbye, googling for art mid-session.
Drop a chest, a torch, a stone circle — conjured straight from a prompt.
A cinematic opener for your players. A written recap after the game.
A red flicker for fire. A thunderclap on cue. A music shift when combat starts.
Save a whole atmosphere — music, light, sound — and switch with one click.
You shouldn't need a degree in software to run your first game. Tableward gives you a single place to keep your maps, your monsters, and your player view. The interface stays out of your way so you can stay in the story.
You've already got your prep workflow. We slot into it — bring your own maps, your own art, your own tokens. We just make the night smoother: live sync to the player screen, an initiative tracker that doesn't fight you, fog of war that actually feels good to use.
You don't need an account. Your DM sends a link, you click it, you see the map. Phone, tablet, TV — anywhere. Especially helpful if you're new to the hobby: the visuals make the world easier to picture, and combat much easier to follow.
Tableward is free while we're in beta. There are fair-use limits — generous enough for a weekly campaign, tight enough that no single user can run up our hosting bill. When we leave beta, we'll introduce a paid tier for heavy users and AI features. Anyone who joined during beta gets a free month on us as a thank-you.
