Straight to Your Bank. Zero Hassle.
Readers buy Coins and spend them unlocking chapters, listening to audio, and subscribing to you. Those coins become real cash — sent directly to your bank via Stripe.
One flat 7% fee covers Stripe processing and platform costs. No surprises.
You write the story.
We handle the chaos.
Our AI generates world documents, tracks timelines, and organizes your characters — so you can focus on what only you can do: write.
Build rich, connected worlds
Bring your universe to life with our World Hub. Map out characters, magical artifacts, locations, and lore in an interconnected graph.
- Never lose track: Instantly see how characters relate to places and events.
- Auto-linked insights: As you write, entities are detected and highlighted.
- Infinite scale: Build intricate magic systems without messy notes.

Plot your story across timelines
Create narrative arcs with branching events, sub-plots, and scene breakdowns. Every event has its own rich document — write directly inside the timeline.
- Multiple arcs: Run parallel storylines — main plot, subplots, and character arcs side by side.
- Events with documents: Each event holds a rich-text scene — write prose right inside the timeline node.
- Color-coded & iconic: Tag events with 30+ icons and custom colors to see your story at a glance.
Write without breaking flow
Never break your writing flow to look up lore. Simply type @ to instantly reference characters, locations, or items from your World Hub right in the editor.
- Inline Context: View background information, stats, or images about your entities right inside the editor via tooltips.
- Stay Consistent: Avoid plot holes. With all lore seamlessly accessible, you won't have to pause writing to check your notes.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does IlorisNovel take from author earnings?
IlorisNovel takes a 7% platform fee — one of the lowest cuts in the industry. You keep 93% of every coin a reader spends on your chapters, paid out directly to your bank account via Stripe. The 7% rate is locked forever; we guarantee it will never go up.
How is IlorisNovel different from Royal Road, Wattpad, or Substack?
Royal Road has no native payouts, Wattpad runs intrusive ads against your work, and Substack is built for newsletters rather than long-form web fiction. IlorisNovel is purpose-built for web fiction: a lore-aware editor, world-building tools, plot-thread tracking, and a per-chapter coin paywall — all in one place, ad-free.
Can I bring my existing readers from another platform?
Yes. Authors keep full ownership of their audience on IlorisNovel — there is no algorithm gating your work from your own followers. You can link your IlorisNovel author page from Royal Road, Wattpad, Substack, or social, and readers can follow you directly.
Do I keep the rights to my stories?
Yes. You retain full copyright and all rights to anything you publish on IlorisNovel. We do not require exclusivity — you are free to publish the same story on Royal Road, Wattpad, Kindle, or anywhere else.
How do I get paid?
Earnings accumulate in your in-platform wallet as readers unlock chapters with coins. When you are ready to cash out, you convert coins to cash and Stripe deposits the funds directly into your bank account — typically within a few business days.
Can I publish stories I have already posted elsewhere?
Absolutely. Many authors mirror their Royal Road or Wattpad backlog onto IlorisNovel and use it as the place to monetize advance chapters. You decide which chapters are free and which sit behind the coin paywall.
A Note from the Founder
I started as a reader of web fiction — binge-reading chapters late at night, falling in love with worlds other people built. Eventually I wanted to try writing my own.
That's when I saw the other side.
I discovered how much money platforms actually take from the support readers give their favorite authors. I learned how hard it is to make a living as a writer — especially when you're paying out of pocket for every writing tool just to get started. It felt broken.
So I built Iloris.
This platform exists for one reason: to help authors keep as much of their earnings as possible and give them every tool they need to craft something amazing — all in one place. I work hard to keep fees as small as I can. I only take what's needed to keep the lights on.
This isn't a corporate play. It's a project built by a reader who wanted to write, and couldn't stand watching creators get shortchanged.
If you're here, whether you're reading or writing, you're part of what makes this work. Thank you.
