Dramaturg: Monologue Prep

An offline AI acting coach. Find the operative word and active verb in any text.

Dramaturg is a private, on-device acting coach that lives in your pocket.

Paste in any monologue, and Dramaturg reads it the way a seasoned
dramaturg would: it identifies who's speaking and what they want, breaks each
line at its tactical hinges, marks the operative word you need to land, and assigns an active, transitive verb to every beat — the thing your character is DOING to the listener.

It's the kind of table work that takes hours with a pencil, done in a couple of minutes, entirely on your phone.

THREE TEMPERAMENTS
Run the same speech three ways:
• Composed — measured, internal, restrained choices
• Balanced — the dramaturg's natural read
• Dangerous — sharp, risky, weaponized choices
The same monologue becomes three different performances. Use them as audition options, or to break yourself out of an obvious choice.

EVERYTHING STAYS ON YOUR PHONE
Dramaturg runs a real AI model entirely on your device. After a one-time setup download, it works with no internet at all. Nothing you paste is ever sent to a server. No account. No subscription. No ads. No tracking. Your work is yours.

MADE FOR ACTORS
• Tap any word to mark or unmark it as a keyword
• Tap any beat to assign or rewrite the active verb
• Save your breakdowns and return to them later
• Export or print a clean marked-up copy for your sides
• Tap a highlighted word to jump straight to its line

Dramaturg is a tool for table work, audition prep, cold reads, coaching, and classwork. It is occasionally wrong. It is occasionally surprising. It is not meant to replace your intuition — it's meant to give you a fast, fearless first read you can argue with.

One price. Yours forever. No strings.
