Off book faster.
The app runs lines with them, any hour, so they walk in knowing the scene.
Every tape back, finished and NDA signed
Nothing changes for you. Keep your email and add one CC. Your client signs the NDA, gets the sides and sends the tape. It lands on your board compressed, named for casting and tracked from the moment you sent it.
It starts with a breakdown
The breakdown, the sides and an NDA land in your inbox. Today you copy it into an email for each client, then log it in a spreadsheet. With Subtext you add one CC.

What your client sees
No more unsigned NDAs, 2 GB tapes or HandBrake. One page per audition. They sign, get the sides and drop in the tape, from any camera. No app, no account.
Clients with the app skip the page. It’s all in Subtext, and it lands on your board the same way.
More bookings. More commission.
The Subtext app gets your actors off book and onto a better tape. Every audition you send lands in it, already read, and the finished tape comes straight back to your board. 25% off through you, and nothing on your bill. See everything the app does
Better tapes.
They film, trim and clean up the audio on their phone. It reaches you the right size, with the right name.
A real person reads opposite them.
Casting can hear a voice memo played off a phone. In Subtext a real reader joins live over video, or a friend records the lines from a link. The reader signs the NDA too.

Clients can do it too. When they write to you and CC their Subtext address, their time away books itself.
It checks what you’d check
The small things that slip on a busy day, on every audition.
Subtext
Catches the clash before you send
It reads the shoot and callback dates in the breakdown and checks them against your clients’ book-outs.
Casting, on every audition
Their card shows on every audition that names them, with what your office knows.
And when a client passes on an audition, you hear right away, with their reason. Answer them from your email.
Private and secure
Your roster is your business. It stays that way.
Your own database.
Your clients, notes and history live in a database that’s yours alone, backed up every night.
No passwords to leak.
Everyone signs in with their email and a short code. Remove someone and their access ends at once.
NDAs, signed digitally.
Like DocuSign, made for sides. Your client signs the production’s own NDA before a page opens, and every signature carries a record. How signing works
Actors keep their own work.
Your clients’ scripts and rehearsals stay theirs. You see the auditions you sent them, and nothing else.

Get started
Try it on a few clients first. Your first month is free. It takes about five minutes.
- Add a card. Nothing is charged for 30 days.
- Add a few clients, or your whole list. One agent’s clients is a great place to start. Each gets an address you can CC right away, and a welcome email from you.
- CC their address on the next audition. It shows up on your board, and the tape comes back to it. Add everyone else whenever you’re ready.
Rather we set it up? Send us your client list, in any shape, and we’ll load your roster and your agents for you. [email protected]
Questions
Do my clients need the app?
No. Every client gets an audition page for each audition you send, with the NDA, the sides and a place to upload the tape, in any browser. Your dashboard works the same either way. Clients who want more help preparing can get the Subtext app at 25% off through you, on their own card.
Does it replace our spreadsheet or Talent Tracker?
It can. Every audition you send is logged with its tape, casting and outcome, without anyone typing it in. Each client keeps their details (department, union, playing age, sizes, languages, skills, reel and resume), their holds and bookings, book-outs and your notes, and you can add any field your office keeps. Start beside what you use today and move over when you’re ready.
Can we bring in what we already have?
Yes. Upload your client list as a spreadsheet: names, emails and phones, plus columns like union, playing age, languages or any field you’ve added, and nobody is emailed until you say so. Or send us your export, in any shape, and we’ll load it for you.
Can we get our data back out?
Any time. Settings has Download your data: clients and their details, every audition and how it went, holds and bookings, notes and book-outs, as spreadsheets that open in Excel, Numbers or Google Sheets.
We have several agents. Who sees what?
Add everyone in your office for free, and each person gets their own page. Agents see their own clients: the auditions they sent and the tapes that came back. Commercial and voiceover agents can be set to see everyone. An assistant sees exactly what their agent sees. Admins see it all and handle billing. When a tape comes in, the agent who sent the audition gets the email, and so does their assistant.
Can we try it with a few actors first?
Yes. A good way to start is one agent’s clients: that agent sees a month of tapes come back on their board, then you add everyone else. Your price is set by how many clients are on your roster, so a small start stays on the smallest tier.
