Import any script
Photograph a printed page, bring in a PDF or Word document, drop in plain text, or type it in by hand. OffBook works out who says what.
OffBook is the rehearsal companion for actors. Import your script, blank out your own lines, say them out loud — and watch your confidence climb, run after run, until you're off book.

Built around the way actors actually learn lines — not the way software usually wants you to.
Photograph a printed page, bring in a PDF or Word document, drop in plain text, or type it in by hand. OffBook works out who says what.
Blank out your character's lines and cue yourself through the scene, revealing each one only when you've had a proper go at it.
Speak your lines and have them checked against the script with voice recognition, so you're learning them the way you'll perform them.
Every run is scored, so you can see at a glance which scenes are solid and which ones still need another pass before you're in the room.
Keep every show you're in side by side, each with its own cast list, scenes and the character you're actually playing.
Send a prepared script to the rest of the company as an .offbook file, so nobody has to type the same scene twice.
Point your camera at the page, or import the PDF the director emailed you. OffBook reads it, splits it into lines, and asks which character is yours.
Your lines are hidden; everyone else's are there to cue you. Say yours aloud and OffBook checks them, or tap to reveal when you're stuck.
Each run leaves a confidence score behind. Come back tomorrow, run it again, and see the line climb — that's the bit that tells you you're ready.
"I think I'm fine on Act Two" is not a plan. OffBook scores every rehearsal run and keeps the history, so the question stops being a feeling and starts being a number you can act on.
Weak scenes surface themselves. You spend your twenty minutes on the pages that actually need it, instead of running the opening you already nailed a week ago.

I built OffBook because I kept losing the pages of my script on the bus, and because no app I tried could tell me whether I actually knew Act Two or just felt like I did. Alex Brent — developer, and occasional am-dram cast member
