Welcome to Book Director Studio
Book Director Studio turns a written manuscript into a finished, mastered audiobook. You paste or upload your text, the AI director splits it into narration and dialogue and casts a voice for every character, you direct the performance line by line, then render and export a mastered file with an ACX-style readiness report. This guide walks through every screen in order.
The five acts
Every chapter moves through the same five-step workflow, shown as a stepper across the top of the studio:
| Step | What happens |
|---|---|
| Paste | Add your raw manuscript text (paste or file upload). |
| Cast | The AI splits the text and assigns a voice to each character. |
| Render | Each line is generated, trimmed of dead air, and assembled into a chapter. |
| Review | Listen back, mark lines reviewed, and fix anything that needs a re-take. |
| Export | Produce an M4B or MP3 with chapter markers and an ACX readiness report. |
