Whether you're prepping for a big audition tonight or building a daily craft habit, Dr Self Tape gives you everything you need to deliver tape-ready work, fast. WHAT'S INSIDE • AI Scene Partner. Drop in any sides, pick a character, and run the scene with an AI that reads with you, takes notes, and adjusts tone on the fly. • Live Readers Marketplace. Match with vetted human readers for live scene work. Swipe to find your fit by accent, age range, time zone, and price, then rate them after so you know who shows up on time, who brings energy, and who's worth booking again. • Self-Tape Recording. One-tap record, cloud sync, instant playback. Multi-take review, side-by-side compare, and trim without leaving the app. • CD Simulation. A first-pass review that flags pacing, eye line, framing, and energy drops the way a casting director might. Critical, never generic. • Audition Tracker. One screen for every audition, submission, and callback, with stats on your response rate, booking rate, and the kinds of roles you're getting traction in. • Scene Journal. Quietly capture what you tried, what landed, and what to bring next time. Build your craft on signal, not memory. • Focus Mode. Optional distraction-free recording. Blur the world, hide the chrome, and it's just you and the scene. WHO IT'S FOR Actors at every level, from drama-school grads building reels to working actors juggling five-plus tapes a week. If you've ever cried in a corner trying to get one good take before bed, this app is for you. NO READERS ON HAND? NO PROBLEM. The AI Scene Partner means you never have to skip a tape because your friend cancelled. When you do want a real human, the Marketplace is one tap away. SUBSCRIPTIONS Dr Self Tape is free to download. Some features (AI Scene Partner, unlimited cloud storage, premium reader credits) are part of an optional subscription. You can manage or cancel any time in Settings, Subscriptions on your device.

About

ActorStats Sync

Features
Read full description

ActorStats turns your Actors Access audition history into the numbers that actually matter. ActorStats Sync is a Safari extension that quietly saves the auditions you view on Actors Access into your private ActorStats dashboard. It runs inside your own logged-in Actors Access session — your password is never stored or seen — and keeps a second, organized copy of every submission so you can track and analyze your career. WHAT YOU GET - Automatic capture — open an audition on Actors Access and it's saved. No copy-paste, nothing to configure. - Your auditions, organized — search, filter, and review every submission in one place. - Analytics that matter — callback rates, the casting offices that keep calling, audition volume over time, union vs. non-union, and more. - Private by design — the extension only runs on Actors Access and your ActorStats dashboard. HOW IT WORKS 1. Install and enable ActorStats in Safari. 2. Sign in to your ActorStats dashboard. 3. Browse your auditions on Actors Access as usual — ActorStats keeps your dashboard in sync. ActorStats is an independent tool by Piazza Product & Technology LLC. It is not affiliated with Actors Access or Breakdown Services, Ltd.
