Record async all-hands videos on Mac that respect everyone's time
Async all-hands video is the modern alternative to a 60-minute company-wide meeting nobody can attend. A well-edited 8-12 minute video covers the same ground, gets watched at 1.5x by people who want speed, and rewatched by people who want detail. Telepront is a free native macOS teleprompter that helps CEOs and execs record those videos in a single sitting with consistent pacing and natural eye contact.
See It in Action
All-hands meetings have a real cost. A 60-minute company-wide meeting at a 200-person company burns 200 hours every time. If a third of the meeting is a CEO update that could be a video, the math says: record the update once, edit to 10 minutes, send the video, and reclaim 130 hours that month. The blocker has always been recording quality and effort.\nTelepront removes the effort blocker. Write the script — the same talking points you'd hit live, structured into 4-6 sections — and paste it into the floating panel. Record each section in one or two takes while the prompter scrolls at your pace. Total recording time is usually 60-90 minutes for an 8-10 minute final video, including editing.\nFor sections where you want to share slides — quarterly numbers, roadmap, customer wins — dock the panel on a second display while the screen-shared display shows only the slides. Apple's on-device speech tracking still advances the script as you talk, so you don't lose the prompter when you switch contexts.\nThe consistency benefit shows up at the quarterly level. Save every all-hands script. Six months in, you can read across the saved scripts and see exactly how your messaging evolved — what stuck, what got dropped, what new themes emerged. That's the same retrospective discipline good CEOs apply to investor updates, applied internally.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is async all-hands actually better than live?
For distributed teams, almost always. People watch on their schedule, can rewatch sections, and you can edit out filler. Telepront makes the recording side fast enough to sustain.
How long should an all-hands video be?
8-12 minutes is the sweet spot for a monthly cadence. Quarterly all-hands can run 20-30 minutes if structured into clear sections.
Will the prompter appear in the final video?
Not if you lower opacity and dock the panel correctly. Use a second display for screen-shared portions to keep the panel completely off the capture.
Should I use one script for the whole video?
Yes. Write the full script with section headers, paste into Telepront, and record in 2-3 takes split by major sections. Splice in editing.
Are confidential roadmap details safe?
Yes. Apple's speech recognition is on-device on modern Macs. Roadmap, financials, and personnel content stay local to your Mac.
