About

Take01

Features
Read full description

Read your script while looking straight at the camera. Take01 puts your words right next to the lens, follows your voice as you speak, and turns every take into a captioned video ready for Reels, Shorts and feeds. Made for solo founders and creators recording product demos, launch posts and updates on their own. BUILT FOR IPHONE DUO Stand iPhone Duo half open like a book. You read the script right beside the camera, so your eyes stay on the lens, and the other side shows your shot big while you record. Half open like a laptop, the script sits by the camera with a small framing preview. Fully open, the whole screen is your teleprompter, and flat between takes it's your studio for reviewing takes, captions and exports. Works closed too, and on every other iPhone. IT FOLLOWS YOUR VOICE No scrolling speed to set. The script moves as you read, keeps up when you skip a word, and waits when you pause. Say "Go" to start a take and "Cut" to stop. The word "Cut" is trimmed from the end of the recording. ANY CAMERA, ANY TIME Switch cameras before a take or in the middle of one: front or back on iPhone; the outer screen, inner screen or back camera on iPhone Duo. Built-in stabilization keeps hand-held takes steady. CAPTIONS SPELLED RIGHT Captions come from your script, timed to your voice, so product names, brands and jargon are spelled exactly the way you wrote them. Choose a style (Boxed, Outline, Highlight, Minimal), size, position and line length, with the word being said highlighted. ONE TAKE, EVERY FORMAT Watch a take full screen, exactly as it will export. Then export 9:16 for Reels and Shorts, 1:1 for feeds and 16:9 for YouTube, with captions burned in, without them, or the captions file alone (SRT). YOUR NAME AND LOGO Add a name strip and your logo once. They go on every export, and your takes stay clean. SHARE SCRIPTS AND CAMPAIGN PACKS Send a script to another creator, or a campaign pack with your logo and caption style, and get the videos back on brand. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no sign-in, no watermark. Your scripts and videos stay on your iPhone. Speaks your language: voice commands in English, Portuguese, Spanish, French, German and Italian, and voice follow in many more.
