Counterpart: Prepare. Perform.
Audition, Tape, Rehearse, Act
Free · In‑App Purchases
Counterpart is the #1 app to memorize lines, self tape, and track your practice. Experience a new way to rehearse and audition, designed by an actor, for actors.
Counterpart is the acting app designed to change how actors rehearse, memorize lines, and prepare for auditions, performances, and self tapes.
Running a scene in Counterpart feels like running lines with a real reader. Instead of stopping to scroll, reread, or prompt yourself, Counterpart actively listens to you and advances the scene at the exact moment you finish speaking. This allows you to rehearse continuously, stay present in the moment, and memorize your script faster and more naturally.
Whether you are preparing for an audition, practicing a cold read, or refining a performance, Counterpart helps you run lines efficiently and rehearse with intention - anytime, anywhere.
RUN LINES, POWERED BY SMART VOICE TECHNOLOGY
Counterpart uses specialized voice recognition technology built specifically for actors. The app listens for the Cue Word of your line (by default, the final word of your dialogue). Once that cue word is spoken, Counterpart advances the scene and plays the next line.
This creates a realistic rehearsal flow that mirrors running lines with a partner, allowing you to focus on performance instead of mechanics.
For your line reader, you can choose:
* Your own recorded voice
* A friend’s voice
* High-quality AI text-to-speech for conversational rehearsing
This flexibility makes Counterpart a powerful rehearsal pro tool whether you are memorizing lines, practicing pacing, or working through a cold read on short notice.

YOUR SCRIPTS WORK WITH COUNTERPART
Import any PDF script directly into the app. Counterpart supports standard scripts, scanned pages, and sides from auditions, even if they come straight from Actors Access or casting emails, watermarked or not.
Using advanced optical character recognition (OCR), Counterpart analyzes up to 10 pages at a time, identifying:
* Your dialogue
* Other characters’ lines
* Stage directions and action
This means you can rehearse real material immediately, without manual formatting or copy-pasting.
REHEARSE YOUR WAY
Counterpart gives you complete control over how you rehearse and memorize your script.
You can:
* Edit dialogue and stage directions
* Create beats to control pacing and intention
* Change cue words to improve recognition or overlap dialogue
* Modify or replace reader audio seamlessly
If Counterpart ever struggles to hear a line, simply adjust the cue word to any word near the end of your dialogue and keep going.
Prefer silent rehearsal on your commute? Counterpart also generates automatic flashcards for every scene, making it easy to memorize lines visually or review your script without speaking.
HAVE FRIENDS READ FOR YOU, NO APP REQUIRED
After importing a scene, you can share reader lines with a friend. They can record their dialogue directly in a browser - no download, no account.
Their recordings instantly become your line reader audio, allowing you to run lines or tape even when no one is physically available.
TRACK YOUR PRACTICE
Tap into powerful insights about your rehearsal habits.
For each scene, you can:
* Add notes and tags
* Assign a role and scene type
* Track how often and how long you rehearse
Your practice data syncs to an online dashboard at counterpart.actor/dashboard (BETA), where you can view patterns across auditions, self tapes, and long-term projects.
Counterpart is built for actors who want to rehearse smarter, memorize lines faster, and show up confident.
Run lines. Rehearse deeply. Perform better.
