01 / Characters
Import once, use everywhere
Supports SillyTavern v1 / v2 PNG and JSON. Create manually too. Fields, greetings, and embedded lorebooks are preserved.
Start your tavern journey
A cross-platform roleplay client compatible with SillyTavernHighly customizable
Character cards, lorebooks, Personas, and presets — not a generic chat shell.
02 / Lorebooks
Inject context when you need it
Enable globally or ship embedded with a character card. Import SillyTavern lorebook JSON — no rewriting required.
03 / Persona
Persona is who you are in the scene
Configure avatar, description, and sample dialogue, then switch anytime. Managed separately from character cards so one character can pair with many Personas.
04 / Presets
Presets shape how the model writes
Official presets included; import or build SillyTavern-compatible ones. System prompts, sampling, and prompt order can be managed independently.
05 / Models
Official models cover the mainstream
Built-in GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, and other mainstream models — no separate API keys required.
Chats stay on your device by default
We do not train our own models on local chat history. Official model requests are sent to the corresponding providers. You can export your data or request account deletion at any time.
How it differs from self-hosted SillyTavern
PocketTavern is compatible with common SillyTavern pack formats and offers multi-platform clients, accounts, and official model access. It is not an official SillyTavern client and does not replace the desktop plugin ecosystem.
