Turn Your Computer Into a Teleprompter
Your Mac is already a teleprompter — you just need the right app. Teleprompter for Mac turns your computer screen into a professional teleprompter with AI voice tracking, a floating overlay, and smooth scrolling. No extra hardware, no browser extensions.
See It in Action
The idea of using a computer as a teleprompter isn't new, but most solutions are clunky. Browser-based tools can't float over other apps. Some desktop apps require you to run the teleprompter on a separate monitor. And most use fixed-speed scrolling that doesn't match your natural speaking pace.
A properly built computer teleprompter should do three things: float over your recording software, scroll based on your voice, and run natively without lag. Teleprompter for Mac does all three. The floating panel is a native macOS overlay that stays on top of any app. Voice tracking uses Apple's on-device speech recognition. And because it's built in Swift, it's fast and lightweight — no Electron, no web views, no browser overhead.

Tips from Creators
Your computer is the only hardware you need — no teleprompter rigs, mirrors, or extra monitors.
On a laptop, the teleprompter panel sits right below the built-in webcam for ideal eye contact.
If you use an external display, position the teleprompter on the same screen as your camera.
