ActorCue vs Scriptmate

ActorCue is a line reader built for learning lines, self-tapes, auditions, and rehearsal. Have your reader record the scene whenever they’re available and send you the audio. Import the recording into ActorCue and automatically separate it into individual reader lines to build your scene. Then rehearse whenever you’re ready. Speak naturally and ActorCue listens as you perform, advances through the scene, and plays your reader’s lines at the right time. No scheduling a live call. No reader standing off camera. No robotic AI scene partner required. Need to start now? Record the reader lines yourself and begin rehearsing immediately. Replace them with your real reader’s audio anytime. — BUILD SCENES FAST — ALL AT ONCE Import or record all reader lines in one take and let ActorCue build the scene for you. ActorCue automatically separates the recording into individual lines, turning a single recording into a scene you can rehearse again and again. — LEARN & REHEARSE YOUR WAY — SCENECUE VIEW Keep your active line centered and highlighted as you rehearse. See your lines, reader lines, cue words, countdown, and listening status at a glance. Follow the scene as you practice, learn your lines, and work toward performing without relying on the script. PERFORMANCE MODE Run the scene hands-free with director-style controls. Say “call action” to begin. ActorCue listens as you perform, advances with your lines, and plays your reader’s audio at the right moments. Say “director line please” when you need your line or “director call cut” to stop. CUE MODE Assign a cue word to a reader line. When ActorCue hears your cue, it instantly plays the reader’s response. Great for learning lines, memorization, rehearsal, and self-tapes. TAP MODE No voice required. Tap to advance at your own pace — ideal for quiet environments, on-set review, or working through a scene beat by beat. — REAL READER AUDIO — Import recordings from another actor, friend, coach, or reader. They can record wherever and whenever it works for them — they don’t need ActorCue or a live call with you. Trim recordings, preview individual lines, and combine recorded audio with other line types. Supports MP3, WAV, M4A, and AAC. — MORE REHEARSAL TOOLS — TRANSCRIPTION Transcribe imported or recorded audio and get suggested cue words to speed up scene setup. SCRIPT VIEWER Import a PDF and keep your script available alongside your scene for quick reference. TEXT-TO-SPEECH Need a temporary reader? Use built-in voices to get started, then replace them with recorded reader audio anytime. — PERFECT FOR — • Learning & memorizing lines • Self-tapes & auditions • Film, TV & stage rehearsal • Scene study • Audition preparation • Rehearsing without a live reader — PRIVATE BY DEFAULT — No account required.

Rehearse your lines. Record your self-tape. No reader needed. Snap a photo of your sides or drop in the PDF. Scriptmate reads every other part out loud and waits for your cue. NOTHING TO RECORD Most line apps make you record every character yourself before you can start. Scriptmate parses the script, finds the characters, and marks your lines. Import, tap your role, rehearse. Under a minute from sides to first run. PHOTO, PDF, OR TEXT Scan paper sides with the camera, import a PDF, or bring in a text file. Long script? Pick only the pages you need for tonight's scene. A READER THAT ACTUALLY HEARS YOU Scriptmate follows your speech word by word through the whole line, not just the last word. Drop a word, pause, or go up on a line, and it still knows where you are. Your reader answers the moment you finish your cue, whether you are off book or cold reading. Speech recognition runs on your phone. VOICES THAT SOUND LIKE PEOPLE English and Spanish scripts get natural voices with real rhythm and emotion, generated on your iPhone. Every character gets its own voice, and you can swap it any time. Prefer a human? Record the other parts yourself, one line at a time, and the reader plays your takes. SELF-TAPES WITH CLEAN AUDIO Put your headphones in and record. The reader plays in your ears and the camera mic picks up only your voice. Landscape framing is enforced, so casting never sees a vertical tape. No lines on screen while recording, so you stay in the moment instead of reading. FOCUS MODE Optional. Block distracting apps while you rehearse, and lift the block the moment you stop. FIVE LANGUAGES English, Spanish, French, German, and Korean scripts, with cue detection in each language. HOW IT WORKS 1. Import your sides. Photo, PDF, or text in, parsed scene out. 2. Tap your character. Your lines are marked automatically. 3. Run the scene until you are off book, then record your tape. TRY IT FREE Run a full demo scene the moment you open the app. No account, no sign-up. Import your own sides and run them once, free. A 7-day free trial unlocks everything after that. SUBSCRIPTION DETAILS Scriptmate Pro: $9.99/month or $69.99/year after a 7-day free trial. Full access, no restrictions.
