HOW IT WORKS

THREE STEPS TO OFF BOOK

  1. Importing a PDF screenplay into Scriptmate

    01

    Import your script

    PDF in, parsed scene out. Photos of paper sides work too.

  2. Assigning a voice to each character in the script

    02

    Tap your character

    Your lines are marked automatically. Every other role gets its own voice.

  3. Running a scene hands free with the reader responding on cue

    03

    Rehearse, then record

    Run the scene hands free, then shoot the self-tape without leaving the app.

CUE DETECTION

A READER THAT ACTUALLY HEARS YOU

Scriptmate follows your speech word by word through the whole line, not just the last word. Off book or cold read, the other characters answer the moment you finish your cue.

SELF-TAPE

SILENCE IN THE MIC. READER IN YOUR EARS

Reader lines play only through your headphones, so the camera never picks them up. Landscape is enforced, so casting directors never get a vertical tape, and your own lines stay hidden while you record.

FOCUS MODE

STAY IN CHARACTER, NOT IN YOUR FEED

Scriptmate blocks the apps you pick the moment rehearsal starts, and lifts the block the moment you stop. Optional, and it takes one tap to set up.

HOW IT COMPARES

THREE THINGS MOST REHEARSAL APPS SKIP

Feature Scriptmate Most rehearsal apps
When the reader speaks The moment you finish your line. It follows every word, so it keeps up if you paraphrase or restart. After a fixed pause, or when it hears the last word of your line.
Recording the self-tape In the same app, locked to landscape, right after you rehearse. Rehearse here, then solve the reader problem again on camera day.
The reader on your tape In your headphones only. You hear the cue, the microphone never does. On the recording, or shown silently on screen.

WHAT ACTORS SAY

4.4 out of 5 on the App Store

  • “I drop my screenplay in, and a second later I'm running lines. That's pretty much it. No setup, no fiddling, no fifty menus to dig through.”

    rusty.m. App Store review

  • “Importing screenplay PDFs is really straightforward, and the app doesn't try to do too much. It stays focused on what matters. I've been using it to rehearse with my movie sides and it's made the process so much easier.”

    Ellilav. App Store review

  • “The developer is extremely dedicated in making this app the best line learning app on the market. He has been very responsive to my inquiries and has been working very hard pushing out updates with new features and quality of life improvements.”

QUESTIONS

Do I need an account?

No. Open the app and start. There is no sign-up and nothing to remember.

Not yet. Scriptmate is an iPhone app. If you want to hear when that changes, send us a note and we will tell you the day it ships.

Tell me when it ships

What can I import?

PDF screenplays, and photos of paper sides. Scriptmate parses the scene and marks who says what.

Does it work for cold reads?

Yes. Cue detection follows the line word by word, so it keeps up whether you are off book or reading.

Can it help me memorize my lines?

Yes. The fastest way to learn your lines is to run them out loud against a reader. Scriptmate plays every other part and waits for your cue, so you can run lines anywhere until the scene sticks.

Will the reader end up on my tape?

No. With headphones in, reader lines stay in your ears and out of the camera mic.

What does the trial include?

Everything. Full access for seven days, then $69.99 a year or $9.99 a month.

How do I cancel?

In your App Store account settings, any time before the trial ends.

Which languages does it come in?

Scriptmate is available in English, French, German, Korean and Spanish.

How is Scriptmate different from other rehearsal apps?

Most rehearsal apps play the next line after a fixed pause, or listen only for the last word of yours. Scriptmate follows the whole line word by word, and it records the self-tape in the same app with the reader in your headphones and off the microphone.
