Question 1

What is ActorBook?

Accepted Answer

ActorBook is an audition preparation platform for professional actors. It provides virtual scene partners with dozens of realistic voices, a line memorizer, a self-tape recording studio, audition tracking, and career management tools — all in one platform. A 7-day free trial is available.

Question 2

How does ActorBook's virtual scene partner work?

Accepted Answer

ActorBook's virtual scene partner reads the other character's lines aloud while the actor responds. Voices are selectable from a library of dozens of options, and pacing, energy, and delivery style can be adjusted per scene. Sessions run on phone, tablet, or laptop — no in-person reader required.

Question 3

Can I rehearse lines hands-free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. ActorBook's Hands-Free Mode lets you rehearse without touching your phone. The screen stays awake, the virtual scene partner reads automatically, and voice commands like 'again' or 'done' control the session. Perfect for a parked car between auditions, a walk, or anywhere your hands are busy.

Question 4

How much does ActorBook cost?

Accepted Answer

ActorBook offers a Studio plan at $9.99 per month and a Pro plan at $19.99 per month. Studio covers unlimited virtual scene partner rehearsals and the full script studio. Pro adds live reader sessions, coaching features, and casting director tools. Both plans include a 7-day free trial.

Question 5

Is ActorBook free to try?

Accepted Answer

ActorBook includes a 7-day free trial on all paid plans. A permanent free tier is also available, covering script analysis, line memorization, and audition tracking. No credit card is required to start the trial, and subscriptions can be canceled any time before the trial ends.

Question 6

What makes ActorBook different from a teleprompter app?

Accepted Answer

A teleprompter only displays text. ActorBook reads the other character's lines aloud with a realistic voice, responds to the actor's pacing, and runs hands-free. It also includes self-tape recording, line memorization with progressive difficulty, audition tracking, and a casting-ready export for submissions.
