In this edition of Founder Spotlight, we’re featuring Maury Rogow, the creative force behind Script Timer, a platform trusted by over a million users to write, time, and enhance scripts for voiceovers, videos, speeches, and more. From Hollywood producers to solo creators, Maury’s tools have quietly become essential to delivering polished, professional content faster than ever.
We sat down with Maury to hear how he built Script Timer, the vision behind it, and how AI is helping him push the boundaries of content creation.
What does your business do, and what inspired you to start it?
Script Timer helps writers, producers, and marketers perfect their scripts by telling them exactly how long a script will take to read aloud. But that’s just the start—we’ve evolved into a full toolkit for scriptwriting, voice cloning, audio previews, image generation, and more. Think of it as your digital co-producer.
The idea came from my work in Hollywood. I’ve produced hundreds of videos and commercials, and timing was always a challenge—table reads, voiceovers, edits—it all added up. I built Script Timer so creators could instantly test and improve scripts without needing an entire team. Now, over 2.5 million scripts have been refined using our tools, saving people 8+ hours a week and thousands of dollars per project.
What has been the biggest challenge in your entrepreneurial journey, and how did you overcome it?
One of the biggest challenges was showing people they actually need this. It’s easy to underestimate how much time and money go into script testing and revision—until you’re in the middle of a blown deadline or budget overrun.
So I focused on value. I offered the tools for free, built up word of mouth, and let the results speak for themselves. Once users saw how much time they were saving, they became loyal fans. Eventually, even large teams and agencies started reaching out.
Scaling the platform while keeping it user-friendly was another big hurdle. Creators want power, but they don’t want clutter. So we kept refining the interface, listening to feedback, and adding smart AI features to do the heavy lifting.
Where do you see AI making the biggest impact in your industry over the next five years?
AI is about to become the co-writer, director, and editor all at once. I see it helping creators fine-tune messaging, match tone to voice, generate visuals, and even optimize scripts based on audience data.
The biggest shift will be speed. AI will reduce weeks of creative work to days—or hours. It will make small teams feel like big studios. And instead of replacing creativity, it’ll remove the grunt work so creators can focus on ideas.
In our world, you’ll see AI driving not just script timing, but content flow, emotional pacing, and audience engagement. It’s already started—and we’re building tools to lead that wave.
How has Vengo AI helped your business capture leads and grow sales?
Vengo AI has added a real layer of intelligence to our customer experience. We get thousands of visitors, and not all of them are ready to sign up right away. Vengo helps educate them, answer key questions, and direct them to the right tools—all without anyone on our team lifting a finger.
Even better, it captures qualified leads while we sleep. We’ve seen a 86% bump in trial signups and a smoother path from visitor to paying user. It’s like adding a knowledgeable product specialist to your homepage who never takes a break.
What advice would you give to other founders looking to integrate AI into their businesses?
Keep it simple, but make it real. Start with one clear use case where AI can save time or close gaps—whether that’s answering customer questions, collecting leads, or qualifying visitors.
Then personalize it. Train the AI to sound like you, reflect your brand, and actually help people. Vengo made that part easy for us.
And finally, measure everything. AI is powerful, but it’s not magic. The more you refine and test, the more it becomes an extension of your business. If you do it right, it’s like adding a team member who scales with you—flawlessly.
