The '''Demon Summoning Program''', also known as the '''Devil Summoning Program''' is an important mechanic in the [[Megami Tensei (Franchise)|''Megami Tensei'' series]]. It allows the protagonists to negotiate with, summon, and order around demons in their party. In many games, the protagonist wears a [[COMP]], a small computer worn on the wrist like a watch, which has the demon summoning program downloaded. In {{link|novel|DDS1}}, [[Akemi Nakajima]] is the original inventor. In {{link|game|SMT1}} and the {{link|series|smt-}}, the creator of the program is [[Stephen]].
