Table Canon

Table Canon is a productivity tool for tabletop role-playing game (TTRPG) hosts that, by uploading game audio and using AI, automatically generates structured content such as Recaps, Outlines, Entity Dossiers, searchable indexes and Prep Ideas.

After launching on Product Hunt, Table Canon received 69 votes, ranked 11th, and its category tags include Productivity, RPGs, Games and Google Cloud Run.

Table Canon can be tried without registration, and new users get 6 hours of audio upload credit for free.

The founder of Table Canon said that if you mention in a private message that you saw the launch on Product Hunt, you can get an additional 10 hours of audio upload credit.

Table Canon is deployed on Google Cloud Run, with elastic scaling capability to handle audio processing needs of different scales.

ASR (automatic speech recognition) is the technical foundation of Table Canon, and its accuracy directly determines the ceiling of all subsequently generated content.

It is currently unclear whether Table Canon supports Chinese-language tabletop RPG recordings, which is a key feature gap for the Chinese TTRPG community.

Many GMs are already used to managing campaign notes with Notion, Obsidian or World Anvil, and whether Table Canon can export to these platforms or provide API integration will affect its acceptance among veteran GMs.

Table Canon is suitable for long-running campaign GMs, novice GMs, groups with limited actual playtime, and podcast-style tabletop RPG play.

The Entity Dossier borrows the concept of entities from knowledge management, treating NPCs, locations, organizations, items, events, etc. as independent nodes, aggregating all related information around each node, which is closer to GMs' actual query habits than linear notes arranged in chronological order.
