Find out how casting sees your work. Every week Castability gives you new scenes to film. Record one on your phone, submit it, and an established casting director scores your work alongside every other actor who filmed the same scene. You see where you placed, how you scored, and what to work on next. New members get 2 weeks free. HOW IT WORKS • Pick a scene. New original scenes go live every week. Each is about 90 seconds, written in the style of TV and film you know, across drama, comedy, thriller, procedural, horror and more. • Film it. Record in the app with the teleprompter and in-app reader, or upload a take from your camera roll. Save up to three takes and submit your best. • Get scored. After the scene closes, an established casting director scores your work. • Read your report: your placement in the scene, your overall Castability score, your scores for Technique, Believability and Creativity, and the "What Worked" and "Things to think about" tags from casting. Casting may also add an optional short note. WHAT YOU GET • Scores from established casting directors. • Your data over time: your strongest genres and character types, and your trend in every metric. • The Gallery: watch winning tapes and see what casting chose. • The Castability List: see where your scores rank. • A daily practice quiz that sharpens how you read a script. • Points and achievements as you keep filming. WHO SCORES YOUR WORK Every casting director who scores on Castability has either worked at Director or Associate level for a studio, network or production company, or has cast principal roles in film, TV or theatre for at least 100 weeks in the last five years. Your report doesn't name who scored you, so the focus stays on your work. YOUR TAPES ARE YOURS TO USE Every scene is an original script, so you can post your tapes and use them in your reel. BUILT BY ACTORS, FOR ACTORS Castability is an actor-run company. We built it to give every actor, everywhere, a clear path to discover their potential.

The rehearsal studio actors carry in their pocket. Break monologues into beats. Run scenes with every other role voiced for you. Rehearse with a real scene partner's recorded voice. And run the whole thing hands free: on your drive, on a walk, phone in your pocket. OffBookly is built for working actors who don't have time to wait for a scene partner, a coach, or the perfect studio. Run lines on the train. Drill cold reads before a self-tape. Master a monologue beat by beat, intention by intention. Turn the commute into one more rehearsal. THE SHAKESPEARE LIBRARY Fourteen plays, ready to rehearse: Hamlet, Macbeth, Romeo and Juliet, Twelfth Night, King Lear and more. Pick a play and your role, and every other part is already voiced. Nothing to upload. FIVE LANGUAGES Rehearse in English, Spanish, French, Italian or Portuguese. The app, the voices and the voice commands all switch together, and OffBookly follows your iPhone's language. REHEARSE WITH A REAL SCENE PARTNER Record your lines, share a 6-character code with your scene partner, and run the scene with their real recorded voice in place of the Reader. They record their part back on their own time. No schedules, no studio. Rehearse whenever you're ready, even offline once the scene is downloaded. Sending a scene is free, and so is joining one. When a partner who is new to OffBookly records their side, you both get 7 days of Pro. REHEARSE ON THE DRIVE WITH CARPLAY Traffic, errands, the commute: found time becomes reps. Your cue plays out loud, you speak your line, and the scene moves on. It's entirely by voice: say "skip line" or "hint line," and when the scene ends it replays on its own. Eyes on the road, hands on the wheel. WHY ACTORS CHOOSE OFFBOOKLY Scene Partner: Record, share a code, and rehearse with your partner's real voice. Or let the Reader voice every other role for you. Beat Work: Break monologues into beats with intention tags. Understand before you memorize. Verse & Shakespeare: Fourteen plays ready to rehearse. Verse keeps its line breaks, elisions are read as words, and the other roles can speak with an American, British or Australian voice. Scene Rehearsal: One-tap PDF upload. Every other role read aloud with realistic voices. Script Split: Drop in a feature-length screenplay. We pull every scene you're in. Word-by-Word Scoring: See what you nailed and what you dropped after every take. Flashcard Drill: Active recall, card by card. When you can do them in any order, you really know them. Hands-Free Mode: Say "skip line" or "hint line," or use the controls on your lock screen. Practice while you walk the dog or head to set. Audition Reminders: Set your audition date and get a nudge so you walk in ready. Offline-Ready: Practice on planes, on hikes, in dressing rooms.
