HOW WE DO IT
We submit scenes in our audition simulator to be ranked confidentially by top casting professionals with thousands of hours of experience in the audition room. In return, we get the private data back to discover where we fall on the casting "decision matrix." We collect this data over time to help us make data-driven decisions on which roles, genres, classes, and areas of growth we need to target for our career.
We then promote the top scoring actors to the industry as the first gallery of actors vetted again and again by top casting professionals.

HOW AM I SCORED?
_edited.png)
After every submission actors are emailed their challenge report. Casting uses five quality metrics to illuminate to actors where they fell in the casting matrix. Curation begins in batches of 5 with each actor receiving a 1 to 5 ranking (5 being the highest in that group). The winners of those batches then will compete in “callback” rounds until the final winner is chosen. Over time, these accrued opinions from casting start to illustrate reliable trends. We believe that this transparency empowers actors to progress faster and be uniquely equipped when real auditions come around.

HOW IS MY DATA TRACKED?
Every role is assigned an archetype and a genre.
Over time, actors are able to gather reliable data on the roles and genres they excel in.
Slide for the 12 Castability Archetypes
Castability categorizes all roles into twelve common character archetypes in order to help the actor explore and recognize the different roles used in TV and film.
Castability archetypes are always gender, race, age, and ability neutral.
