Subtext: The Actor's Toolkit

The greatest app for actors, period. Get the role, learn the role, own the role—scene partner, self-tape, table reads, sides, and more, all in one place.

Built by a working actor, for working actors.

RUN LINES WITH AN AI SCENE PARTNER. Every other part is read aloud in an expressive AI voice. Say your line, the mic listens, and your words reveal themselves one by one as the scene moves with you — hands-free, take after take. It's how a scene gets into your body.

HEAR THE FULL SCRIPT READ ALOUD. Hit Read-Through for the entire scene aloud — every character in their own voice, a narrator reading the action. A table read in your pocket.

SEND YOUR SCENE TO A REAL READER. When it counts, run it against a person. Send anyone a link — they record the other lines right in their browser, no app to install — and their real voice reads with you, in rehearsal and on every self-tape.

RECORD & SEND SELF-TAPES. Your self-tape studio too. Record in landscape with a teleprompter that scrolls to your voice. Do as many takes as you want, trim each clip, add a clean cut or fade. Then send it as a Subtext link — your agent or casting watches and downloads right in the browser, no giant files to wrangle — or export straight to Messages, Mail, or Files. First take to send, all in one place.

RECORD VOICEOVER AUDITIONS. Lay down VO auditions scene by scene, pick your best take, and trim it on the waveform. Turn on Studio Sound and each take is polished to studio quality — tuned to that recording, not a one-size stamp — then it all exports as one clean MP3.

MEMORIZE YOUR LINES. Hide your lines and speak them from memory. Blanking? Peek a hint, or switch to First-Letter Mode for the long passages. Every pass is faster than the last, until the part is yours.

IMPORT YOUR SIDES OR SCRIPT. Upload your sides exactly as they landed — START and END marks, FYI brackets, even the scribbles. Subtext lifts out each scene. On a full script it finds the scenes you're in, so you're not scrolling past eighty to reach your three.

MARK UP YOUR SCRIPT. Pick your character and every line lights up. Highlight, underline, circle the turn, scribble the beat — your marked copy travels with you.

SUMMARIZE ANY SCRIPT & ASK ANYTHING. Open a script — or just your sides — for an instant plot summary: the story, the characters, the stakes. Then ask it anything about the text: what a moment's really about, who your character is to everyone else, what happened before your scene starts. It knows when it's only holding sides, so it won't make things up.

ORGANIZE YOUR SCRIPTS & GIGS. Group scripts into Projects, search by title or character, and file each audition under its gig. Plus casting calls and industry headlines for your region on the Today tab.

BACK UP & SYNC ACROSS DEVICES. Create a free account and your scripts, tapes, and voiceovers back up privately — so you pick up right where you left off on any device. Sign in with Apple or your email, no password to remember.

FROM THE ACTOR WHO BUILT IT: "I've been a professional actor for more than twenty years. Subtext exists to take you deep into the text — whether you're learning an audition the night before or stepping onto the set or the stage." — Ali Momen

Learn the lines. Rehearse the scene. Own the role.
