Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about rehearsing with Souffleur.
- What is Souffleur?
- Souffleur is a digital prompter for stage actors. You import a script, pick your role, and rehearse with AI scene partners that read the other characters' lines aloud and prompt you when you stall — so you truly learn your lines instead of just recognising them.
- Is Souffleur free?
- Yes. You can create an account and start rehearsing for free — no credit card, no credits. AI features (analysis, voices, scene-partner chat) run within a fair-use monthly limit.
- What can I import?
- PDF scripts. Souffleur extracts the text, detects the cast, scenes and stage directions, and formats it into a rehearsable script automatically. Scripts with embedded text convert fastest; scanned PDFs are read with AI vision and are worth proofreading.
- Which languages are supported?
- The app is available in English and French, and it rehearses scripts in either language, with AI voices to match.
- Are my scripts private?
- Yes. Your scripts are visible only to you and to any cast members you explicitly invite. They're never shared, published, or redistributed, and you can export or permanently delete all your data at any time from your account.
- Can I rehearse with my real cast?
- Yes. You can invite other cast members to a play so everyone shares the same script and roles, while each person tracks their own lines and progress.
- What devices does it work on?
- Souffleur runs in any modern web browser, on desktop and mobile. There's nothing to install.
