Inside Paracosm Studio
From a passing thought.
To a place of your own.
One connected workspace for your maps, civilisations, lore and stories.
02 Shape the map
Find the places that matter.
Move between map layers and shape the geography behind your setting. Every coast, river and region is a starting point.
03 Model civilisations
Let civilisations take root.
Build cultures, factions and states alongside the geography that shaped them. Connect the people to the places.
04 Design the cosmos
Imagine beyond the horizon.
Place your world among stars, planets and orbital systems. Give your stories a whole cosmos to look up at.
05 Write canon and stories
Make it a world worth remembering.
Bring your lore together in a Wiki, then develop stories, plot arcs and timelines connected to your world.
Who it is for
For anyone building a world they want to keep returning to.
Paracosm Studio gives early ideas a place to become maps, histories, civilisations, stories and shared canon.
For worldbuilders
Move from a vague idea to a setting with geography, cultures, regions and living context.
For writers
Give stories a reliable source of truth, then discover new conflicts from the places you create.
For game makers
Prototype explorable worlds with readable terrain, factions and map layers before production art exists.
For fun
Make places because it feels good to imagine them, then keep adding history, people and strange details.

What can I build with Paracosm Studio?
Create a setting with generated planets, editable maps, places and civilisations. Use the Wiki for established lore and Scribe for stories, campaigns, writing documents and planning boards.
Can I start for free?
Yes. The Free plan lets you try a small setting within its allowances, including Clean Map and Natural Atlas basics. Paid plans add capacity and premium customisation such as custom map fonts, colours and imports. See Plans for current limits.
Does it generate worlds with AI?
The current terrain generator uses procedural algorithms running in your browser, rather than sending a world-generation prompt to an external AI model. You develop the setting’s lore and stories in the connected workspace.
Can I use Paracosm Studio on mobile?
Create and edit in a desktop-sized browser. Mobile provides a view-only reader for saved Worlds, Wiki and Scribe content. Sign-in, cloud saving and synchronisation require an internet connection.
Is Paracosm Studio finished?
Paracosm Studio is Alpha v1.0. Some areas are still developing, and controls marked Coming soon are not available features. Check the Help Centre and requirements, and keep independent exports of important work.
