How CastPilot works
- Upload your sides. Tap Upload and pick the PDF casting sent you, or tap "Or paste text."
- Check your character. CastPilot finds who you're playing. Fix the name if needed, then tap Build my Brief.
- Wait about 10 minutes. You can close the app. We'll send a notification when it's ready, if you allowed notifications.
- Open your dossier. One short self-tape dossier, 6 to 12 pages.
- Make it yours. Use Your reads and the Scene Prep cards to shape your choices.
Your reads and Scene Prep cards
What are "Your reads"?
The big choices for your character. Tap one to see other ways to play it, and pick the one that feels right. Your dossier updates to match.
What are Scene Prep cards?
Each card gives one clear answer for a part of the scene. Tap Other reads to see different takes, or Regenerate for a fresh one. Regenerate is part of CastPilot Pro.

Saving your briefs
Do I need an account?
No. Sign-in is no longer available in CastPilot. Just open the app and make your first brief.
Where are my briefs saved?
On this phone. They stay until you delete them or delete the app.
New phone?
Briefs can't move to a new phone. To keep a dossier, open it and tap Share to save the PDF to Files or send it to yourself.
I signed in before. What happens now?
Nothing changes for you. You stay signed in on that phone and your briefs stay where they are.
Deleting
Delete one brief
Open the side menu and tap the ✕ next to the brief (or press and hold it).
Delete all your data
Open the side menu and tap Delete my data. This permanently deletes your briefs and everything tied to them. It can't be undone.
Troubleshooting
My brief is taking a long time
Most briefs take about 10 minutes. Long sides can take a little longer. If it's been over 30 minutes, email us.
"Couldn't start" or another error
Check your connection, close CastPilot completely, and open it again. If it keeps happening, email us a screenshot.
