Script Drip is a script writer and teleprompter that gets you from script to finished video, fast. Write with Claude, read it off the teleprompter while you film, and hand your takes back to Claude to edit. WRITE YOUR SCRIPTS WITH CLAUDE Connect Script Drip to Claude with one link from your profile. No extra sign-in. Then just ask: • "Write three hooks for this idea and send it to Script Drip" • "Tighten the body of my latest script" • "Which scripts haven't I recorded yet?" Claude writes the script, splits it into a hook, body and call to action, and sends it to your Studio, ready to record. It can also read and edit any script you already have, and every change is saved as a revision you can go back to. A SCRIPTING FLOW BUILT FOR SHORT-FORM VIDEO • Start from a typed note, a voice memo, or a Reel you want to riff on, and get a full script in your style • Give any script a main hook plus up to six extra hooks, so one script becomes several videos • Swipe between hooks while you edit, or switch to Yap mode for loose talking points • Studio holds your drafts, Outputs holds what's ready to record, and finished scripts move out of the way • Changes from Claude show up in the app on their own RECORD WITH THE TELEPROMPTER • Your script runs over the front or back camera while you record • Read it your way: smooth scroll, karaoke-style highlighting, or one word at a time right under the lens • Record the full take, then pick each extra hook from the hooks menu and record it on its own • Adjust text size, width, backdrop, speed and reading line while you watch • Countdown, mirrored text for glass rigs, and a light mode • Review each take, save it to Photos, and mark the script recorded LET CLAUDE EDIT YOUR TAKES Saved takes can back up to the cloud so Claude can open them, edit them and mark them done. You'll see "Edited by Claude" on the script, with a note about what changed. MAKE IT YOURS • 12 color themes, including a Notes theme that feels like Apple Notes and 6 dark ones • Stats on how much you write and record • Export all your scripts any time Built for creators, UGC talent and marketers who post often and want to get from idea to camera faster.
