The Cypher Character Builder is amazing. This is the first time I've tried this, and it can build a character in a few minutes, compared to about 15-30 minutes of flipping through the book and copying and pasting blocks of text from it into my character sheet. You can choose custom, random, or pre-generated characters. You can download a PDF that is editable and has working checkboxes and places for current values. You can spend XP and level up.
It supports multiple books, but not The Strange, Numenera, or the Diamond Throne. Most recent Cypher books are supported, and more will be added as they are released (as it appears by the dates). There are still a few manual steps, such as choosing equipment, armor, and weapons. Given the number of genres the game supports, just DIY these.
This is in the Cypher Tools link in the sidebar, which goes to the Monte Cook Games site.
If you haven't signed up (it's free) and tried this tool, you should. I wish all games had this.
