01 / A project worth growing

Better at the table.
Stronger with your support.

Steward is already playable for D&D 5.5e / 2024 tables. The next chapter is about making it clearer, more dependable and more personal, with room to grow alongside its community.

01 / The companion

Make every session smoother.

Keep the app online and keep improving character creation, accessibility and the small details you touch every time you play.

02 / The craft

Put human artists on the page.

After running costs, the first creative priority is commissioning original Steward artwork from paid human artists, piece by piece.

03 / The community

Build beyond one pair of hands.

Over time, support can bring more help with code and testing. The ambition is a lasting home for TTRPG players, starting with Dungeons & Dragons.

02 / The person behind the pages

One designer.
One dad.
A lot of pages ahead.

An independent project, made around a full-time job and family life.

I'm Agustin, a designer and DM building the companion I wanted at my own table.

Steward shares my week with a full-time job and being a dad. I build it in the hours I can make for it: designing screens, checking rules, testing changes and listening to the people who use it.

I want to earn Steward a place at your table, then grow it into something we can keep building together. A useful app comes first. A community and a broader home for TTRPGs are the longer journey.

Your support helps give that work a steadier foundation. Every improvement to the companion is there for everyone to use.

What keeps
the lamp lit.

A small project still has real running costs. Here are the published annual expenses behind Steward.

Contributions help cover these costs and the ongoing work on the app. Monthly tools sit outside these figures; this is not a complete project budget.

Hosting, domain and email
$243 / year
Design licences
$840 / year
Evenings, weekends and care
Not billed to anyone.

Figures shared by Agustin in August 2026. No value is assigned to development hours.

04 / A place in the ledger

Four ways to be
part of the story.

Monthly tiers offer recognition and a closer look at the work. Each includes the benefits before it. The same four are available on Patreon and Ko-fi.

01

Scribe

A name in the ledger

Your chosen name on the supporters' ledger, with your permission. Staying unnamed is equally welcome.

The first page.

02

Archivist

A look behind the desk

Notes on what is being built and why, plus release notes before they are published.

Includes Scribe.

03

Loremaster

Help commission the art

Fund original Steward art by a human artist and receive it at full size when commissioned and completed.

Includes Scribe and Archivist.

04

Chancellor

A voice in what comes next

Your name in the notes of a release you helped fund, plus a vote on what gets picked up next.

Includes all three earlier tiers.

Current prices and full benefits live on the platforms. Commissioned artwork is a future goal, not an existing download.

05 / Before you put a coin down

A few things,
clearly answered.

How supporters are recognized
Does supporting unlock anything in the app?

No. Steward is free to use, with no premium classes, paid subclasses or locked playable features. Monthly tiers thank supporters through recognition and behind-the-scenes material. You never need to pay to play.

Can I give once without a subscription?

Yes. Choose a one-time tip on Ko-fi. Monthly support is optional and available on both Ko-fi and Patreon. Check the amount and payment frequency on the platform before confirming.

Can I change or stop monthly support?

Yes. Manage your membership through the platform you joined. You can cancel recurring support there, and your access to the Steward app stays the same.

Will my name or donation amount be public?

Your name appears in the ledger only with your permission, using the name you choose. Donation amounts are never listed there. You are welcome to support without being named.

Does a donation promise a feature or release date?

No. Contributions support the project as a whole. The roadmap shares the direction of the work; it is not a delivery contract. You can follow completed improvements in the changelog.

There is room for you here

Every helping hand
leaves a mark.

A contribution, a thoughtful bug report, or telling your group about Steward: it all helps this project find its place at the table.
