One search. Every fandom. Stories worth discovering.
We help readers find stories. Authors get the readers. Explore a platform-neutral discovery experience.
Prototype / demonstration: The starter catalog now contains real story titles and original-site links sourced from public listings. Links and metadata are not continuously checked; some destinations may be unavailable. There is no live crawling, link safety verification, account authentication, or server database. Your test data stays in this browser's local storage. Hard limits only match known tags: missing source warnings cannot be guaranteed. Do not enter sensitive information.
Real catalog — initial batch: 9 real works from AO3 and FanFiction.net, with links to their original pages. This is a curated starter index, not a comprehensive search engine. Some tags and content warnings are incomplete; do not rely on FicFinder alone for hard-limit safety. We will add more platforms and fandoms as sources are checked.

📖 Your reader dashboard
Private reading tastes are independent of any stories you write. This demonstration stores your ratings and structured feedback on this device only. Choose your reading themes below. Individual story feedback stays attached to that story, not to your overall tastes.

Your reading preferences
Set your boundaries: green = actively enjoy, yellow = depends / soft limit, red = exclude. Unset tags remain neutral. These are separate from feedback on individual stories.

✍️ Your author dashboard
Manage your own story submissions separately from your reader profile. This is a local demo, not proof of authorship.

My demo submissions
Production requirements: verified author claims, pen-name privacy, correction and removal requests without an account, re-indexing suppression, and aggregate-only analytics.
🔗 Submit a fanfiction link
In the real service, submitted links enter a safety and verification workflow before becoming searchable. Here you can create a local demo entry only.
Safety note: URL syntax checks do not establish that a site is safe. Production submissions must be checked server-side, including redirects, malicious destinations, and author opt-outs.

Writing compelling summaries
Lead with the premise and central tension. Keep spoilers optional and describe what makes your story distinctive.
Tagging with care
Choose meaningful tropes and warnings. Be specific when content might cross a reader’s hard limits.
Character voice
Consider vocabulary, rhythm, motivations, and what a character avoids saying—not just their catchphrases.
FicFinder serves readers and writers, not advertisers. Sponsored content must be clearly labeled and cannot buy favorable reviews or organic rankings.
