Great Idea
I really believe that this, along with the speed at which the developer is working, is going to be excellent.
My biggest issue has been with the voice. I've tried multiple times to change and add characteristics of a fun, competitor-like voice with analogies, but every version I generate ends up sounding like a stat-driven slog. Granted, I did include 10 articles for research, but still, it sounds too robotic regardless of the voice changes I make. I think there might be something conflicting with the voice—perhaps if you add too much research, it cancels out the voice because of the sheer amount of data it has to process.
There are also several minor bugs that, although manageable, are annoying. When generating hooks or sections, it often shows me a blank page, and I have to refresh the page for the content to appear. The script draft with outline generation freezes about half the time, but it reappears upon refreshing, so you don't actually lose your data. The .doc export feature doesn't work for me, rendering the document unopenable, so I have to use the "copy text" button instead. The "download research" button only provides a few low-value summary bullet points; I have six hours worth of research and get just a one-page summary. I'm not sure if this is the intended output.
There's no way to copy your research or links out or duplicate them for another script or another run. Lastly, the credits are a bit pricey in my opinion. I've had to rerun my script five times with voice edits to try and achieve a good 20-minute script. On the lower plans, you'd already be out of credits.
So far, it hasn't been able to beat my custom GPT, which I spent a month perfecting for my scripts, but I think it's close and has an amazing GUI. For 99% of people, this will likely produce a better script than they could create on their own, which in itself makes it a worthwhile purchase.

May 14, 2025Hey MrAndrew, thank you SO MUCH for taking the time to leave a very honest review with constructive feedback.
Regarding the voice style I am happy to work with you on this. Sometimes it takes a little finesse to achieve the style you're looking for. Please feel free to contact me through the Help icon in the app.
I will be looking at the other bugs you mentioned today!
You're absolutely right there is not a way to duplicate research sources for a new script. That's a pretty cool idea. Will keep that in mind.
Regarding the "rerun script five times", there is a "Refresh Outline" feature in the Draft step which enables you to completely recreate the outline and draft for a script without requiring any additional credits. You can find it in the Actions dropdown at the top. You can use this twice per script.
Am very glad to hear you have a custom GPT working well for you! For AI pros you can accomplish a ton that way. Ultimately I hope to take Subscribr much farther than scriptwriting alone - with the recent addition of the Intel features as well as the upcoming AI voiceover and AI thumbnail features, I hope to continue adding tons of value to the YouTube content creation workflow.
Again, thanks for giving Subscribr a try. I appreciate your feedback.
