Story Generator Tools (also branded AI Story Generator and AI Story Writer) is an online suite of AI generators for fiction, covering complete stories, ideas, plots, prompts, titles, and image-to-story creation. Its centerpiece is a full AI story generator that turns a written premise into finished short stories.
The product counts more than 40 AI story generators, and all of them draw on one shared credit balance instead of separate plans per tool, so credits bought for complete stories can also pay for a title list, a plot outline or a story built from a photo.
The site frames itself around story-writing workflows rather than general-purpose chat, and its pages are split by writing intent. Support runs through a single address, support@story-generator.net, which handles product, billing and account questions. Before paying, note that credit costs are quoted inconsistently across pages and that the legal pages name no company behind the service.
The suite has three layers on one account: a full story generator, a novel planner and a set of lighter helpers.
The three-version output is the feature everything else leans on. Each run already contains alternative openings and tones, so the paid expansion step only needs to be applied to the version worth keeping.
The AI novel generator plans a book before any chapter is written out. One run returns three directions, labeled classic, balanced and bold, and each version contains a title, a cast, an act-by-act outline, a chapter plan and an 800–1200 word opening. A blueprint run costs 3 credits and each chapter expansion costs 1 credit, so a long book is built up chapter by chapter.
Image to Story works from a written description of any image or artwork, while Photo to Story analyzes a real uploaded photo. Image to Story can also analyze an uploaded file: its complete story costs 3 credits and the image analysis costs 1 additional credit. Uploads accept PNG, JPG and GIF files up to 10MB, and the photo is sent only for analysis rather than added to a public gallery.
Helper pages end with suggested next steps, so a result can move into the next focused tool instead of starting over: an idea can become a plot, and a plot a chapter outline. Writers starting from nothing can run the story idea generator first and bring the best premise into the full generator. For picture-based stories, naming concrete visual anchors such as colors, weather, expressions and objects in the frame gives the generator more to build on.
The specialized pages map to concrete jobs. These are the vendor's intended scenarios, not independently tested outcomes.
The Social Story Generator writes social skills stories for autism support, and each run costs 1 credit. Optional boxes take a scenario, such as a dentist visit, and the skills to emphasize, so the story can be read with a child before the routine begins.
The D&D Story Generator produces adventures and campaign hooks with quests, NPCs and dungeon scenarios for game masters. The Interactive Story Generator builds choose-your-own-adventure tales with choice points and multiple endings, which its page pitches as a way to test dialogue trees for text adventures or visual novels before writing code.
The Children's Story Generator exposes target age, reading level, learning goal and elements to avoid as inputs, and a separate bedtime page writes gentle, calming stories for sleep time. The Middle School Story Generator targets readers aged 10 to 14 and can add learning notes plus a revision checklist, so students rewrite the result in their own voice.
Photo to Story is pitched at families turning a reunion, birthday or holiday snapshot into a keepsake story, and the image to story generator suits artists who want a narrative to accompany a painting or digital scene. Contest writers can pick a length on the Short Story Generator and get a draft that already fits a word cap.
Story Generator Tools fits people who want finished fiction drafts or structured story scaffolding quickly and who accept paying per use after the free allowance.
First-time visitors can generate 1 story for free without signing in. New accounts get 20 free credits, which the main generator page equates to six full story generations, and the site mentions referral bonuses and promotional credits during special events.
Three buying modes exist: monthly subscriptions, annual subscriptions and one-time credit packs, with the annual plans displayed by default on the pricing page.
| Plan | Price | Credits | Complete stories (approx.) | Priority speed |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hobby | $4.99 per month | 60 per month | about 20 | No |
| Creator | $9.99 per month | 150 per month | about 50 | Yes |
| Pro | $19.99 per month | 360 per month | about 120 | Yes |
| Hobby Annual | $44.99 per year | 720 per year | about 240 | No |
| Creator Annual | $89.99 per year | 1,800 per year | about 600 | Yes |
| Pro Annual | $179.99 per year | 4,320 per year | about 1,440 | Yes |
| 10 Credits Pack | $2.99 one-time | 30 | about 10 | Not listed |
| 25 Credits Pack | $5.99 one-time | 80 | about 25 | Not listed |
| 50 Credits Pack | $9.99 one-time | 150 | about 50 | Not listed |
Each annual plan holds exactly twelve months of the matching monthly allowance for less than twelve monthly payments. Pro adds priority support, early feature access and batch export. The Hobby card lists chapter-detail expansion without the tick Creator shows, so whether Hobby includes it is unclear. Pack names count approximate stories, so the 10 Credits Pack contains 30 credits; packs never expire.
| Output | Credits per run |
|---|---|
| Complete AI story, three versions | 3 (1 for members on the generator page) |

Credits are interchangeable across the suite and subscription credits refresh each month; a daily +2 also resets every day, but the pricing page does not say who receives it. Under the terms of service, prices for credits and subscriptions can change with notice to users.
Several unrelated sites use near-identical names, so check the domain before paying. Two alternatives differ from Story Generator Tools in ways that change the choice.
Perchance offers an AI story generator that is completely free and unlimited with no sign-up or login, building long stories paragraph by paragraph while the user guides what happens next; its account notice says interactions with its generators are not saved. It suits writers who want to steer each paragraph without an account or payment. The vendor of Story Generator Tools publishes a comparison that recommends Perchance for fast experiments and short-form drafts but warns that long novels need more manual guidance there, which is a competitor's view rather than an independent test.
Squibler's AI story generator can be tried without signing up and connects generation to a full writing workspace, where a draft can be revised, continued or expanded into a book with chapters and scenes. It fits writers who want the story to live inside a manuscript editor.
| Option | Without an account | Where drafts live |
|---|---|---|
| Story Generator Tools | One free story | Account library with .docx, PDF and .txt export |
| Perchance AI Story Generator | Free and unlimited | Not saved to an account |
| Squibler | Generator can be tried | Squibler writing workspace |
Partly. A first-time visitor can generate one story without signing in, and new accounts receive 20 free credits; after that, generation uses paid credits.
The homepage and pricing page list 3 credits for a complete story with three versions, while the main generator page quotes 1 credit for members. Expanding a story to 2000–3500 words costs 2 credits.
Yes. The terms give users full ownership and allow them to publish, distribute or commercialize their stories, but users also carry responsibility for infringement claims.
Credit and subscription purchases are final and cannot be refunded unless the law requires a refund, and the pricing and legal pages describe no refund window.
