“Free” as in you can bring your own LLM / provide API keys for popular LLM Providers. Basically as free as I can make it with no budget.

      Never heard of that actually. Main difference would be my web-based approach with a cloud, which works on any device. You also don’t have to run the LLM on the same device (which seems to be a must with SillyTavern?).

      The Character Cards database looks very interesting though! I will definitely look into writing an importer/connecting service.

        You don’t need to run the LLM on the device. It supports 13 different protocols for both text completion and chat completion.

        There’s also RisuAI which has some nicer features like better integration with function calling. Sillytavern is working on Function calling more but it’s not quite there yet.

        The nice thing about Sillytavern is that it also has plugins for Alltalk for TTS and ComfyUi/A1111 for image generation directly from the roleplay interface.

        It also has support for RAG through upload of documents and web scraping and a shitload of other features it would take awhile to list here.
