Now you can record auditions on your own, anytime. Suflor is an AI-powered audition and rehearsal assistant built for actors. We know how hard it is to rehearse and film with no one across from you. Suflor takes that role. It voices the other characters in your script, rehearses with you, and makes recording an audition alone simple. No partner hunting. Work whenever you want. Never wait for someone to be free. HOW IT WORKS Upload your script: Upload a PDF or Word file and Suflor analyzes it, pulling out the characters, lines, and scene structure. Choose your character: Pick which character you'll play in the audition text. Choose a voice: Listen to and compare different AI voices for the other characters, and pick the one that fits the scene. Set up your scene: Split a multi-scene script into separate scenes and arrange characters and voices however you like. Rehearse or record: Switch to rehearsal mode when you're ready, or turn on your camera and shoot your audition video. REHEARSAL MODE Karaoke flow: The other character's line is read out, then Suflor stops and waits for you. Auto-advance with the mic: With the mic on, Suflor listens. When you finish your line, the script moves forward on its own. You're in control: Advance lines manually, jump back to any point, or skip ahead. Edit your scene: Edit the text, swap characters and voices, regenerate any voice you don't like, and adjust the wait times. Try improvising: Want to step outside the lines? Improv mode lets you set how long your take runs, and Suflor waits for the time to run out. RECORDING MODE Solo audition recording: Turn on your camera and Suflor is behind it. Prompter: If you blank, your script is right there. Turn on the prompter to follow your lines over the frame. "That was great, one more!": Preview your take when you're done, and shoot again if you're not happy with it. Save to your gallery: Your audition video is saved straight to your phone's gallery. FOUR LANGUAGES Suflor analyzes scripts in English, Turkish, Spanish and French, and reads each one with a voice cast native to that language. The app interface is available in all four. WHO IS IT FOR? Actors and aspiring actors, anyone sending auditions and self-tapes, conservatory and acting workshop students, voice and dubbing artists, theater companies, and anyone who wants to work on lines and scenes alone. CREDITS Script analysis, AI voicing, and recording features run on a credit system. You start with bonus credits, and when they run out you can buy a new credit pack inside the app. Don't wait for someone to take the stage. Suflor is in your pocket now.
