Comparisons · Checked 13 August 2026
Compared with the alternatives.
Most of these tools are good, and several of them are better than us at something. Each page says which, and names the writer who should buy theirs instead. If a claim here is wrong, tell us and we will change it.
New Quest vs Novelcrafter
Novelcrafter's codex is read by a model inside Novelcrafter; New Quest's is read by whatever model you already use, wherever you already write.
New Quest vs Sudowrite
Sudowrite writes the prose, with about 20,000 words of prior narrative in view; New Quest writes nothing and keeps the whole record, for whichever model you already draft with.
New Quest vs World Anvil
World Anvil turns your world into a wiki your readers can browse; New Quest turns it into a record your model can query mid-chapter.
New Quest vs Obsidian
Obsidian hands you files nobody can take away and asks you to build the schema and the plumbing yourself; New Quest hands you the schema and a hosted MCP endpoint any model can reach, and asks you to keep your book on someone else's server.
New Quest vs Scrivener
Scrivener is where the book gets written; New Quest is where the book's facts get kept, in a form your model can read while you write.
New Quest vs Campfire Writing
Campfire is the better place to write your world down; New Quest is the place your model can read it from without you retyping it.
