Avoid the distraction of looking away at your notes with with an on-screen teleprompter.

Online viewers are easily distracted as you look away to refer to your notes. Deliver more persuasive appeals by never looking away from them. Simply upload your script into a teleprompter that projects your script in a browser window over your ZOOM (or WebEx, Google Meet or Microsoft Teams) presentation. Adjust the speed to presentation style and you can even pause the scrolling script to answer questions from the audience.

1. Save your script

Save your Teleprompter scripts to the Teleprompter app and on your devices so you can reuse them again later.

2. Pick what to emphasize and when to pause

Highlight and change the color for different words in your speech so that you and anyone else using the script will know where to pause for dramatic effect, and which words or phrases to emphasize.

3. Share your scripts

Share your script with others. Ideal when you want many people to be able to present your talking points such as for community organizing. Simply share your script as a link or QR code with others and when they open it they get a free teleprompter pre-loaded with your script.

4. Co-present

Use the same script from multiple devices. Ideal when you are co-presenting with others and need to transition smoothly from one presenter to another.

5. Help others

Discreetly send answers to tough audience questions and time check reminders to other co-presenters directly in their teleprompter. They see the message without having to look away from the screen.
