Arctale is an AI interactive story platform for curated works and persistent progress.
What Arctale is
Arctale is an AI interactive story platform for curated works and persistent progress. Readers choose a story, role, and opening, continue along a storyline, and branch from earlier turns. Listed genres include romance, fantasy, mystery, science fiction, retro settings, and character-driven drama. The service targets interactive fiction readers, visual novel fans, CYOA readers, worldbuilders, and story creators. Creators can submit structured setting packs containing world rules, roles, opening choices, and story assets for review; submission does not automatically publish an official work. Arctale uses AI systems to generate fiction, and its privacy policy names DeepSeek as a provider. Supabase handles authentication and backend services, while Apple handles App Store purchases and subscriptions. Anonymous trial progress, choices, generated text, and runtime state remain on the device until sign-in. The platform is available on iOS and the web. Monthly and yearly Pro plans are offered, but prices, benefits, and trial details appear in the purchase flow.
