Read Scripts In Ecamm Live Without Breaking Eyelines
Ecamm Live is the Mac-native production studio for podcasters, course creators, and livestreamers — interviews, scenes, overlays, and replays all in one app. It's missing a built-in teleprompter, and any external prompter risks landing in your scene capture. Telepront is a free native Mac teleprompter that floats above Ecamm Live without being picked up by your scene capture, keeping your script private.
See It in Action
Ecamm Live is one of the most loved production tools in the Mac creator community. It blends scene-based production, livestream output, podcast recording, and interview hosting into a single, native app. What it doesn't include is a teleprompter — and creators have asked for one for years.
Telepront fills that gap from the outside. It runs as a separate native macOS app, floating above all Ecamm Live windows. Because Ecamm Live builds scenes from specific sources — cameras, screens, app windows, media files — the prompter is automatically excluded. The audience sees Ecamm's clean output; you see the script.
Use it for everything Ecamm shines at: long-form interviews where you need pre-written follow-ups, course recordings where you need pixel-perfect script delivery, and livestreams where a sponsor read needs to land word for word. The floating panel can sit just below your webcam so your eyeline reads as natural to the camera.
Voice tracking is powered by Apple's on-device speech engine. When you slow down for emphasis, the script slows. When you bounce off an interview answer and skip a beat, it pauses. Nothing leaves your Mac, which matters for course creators who care about content security and for podcasters whose sessions are under embargo.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Ecamm Live capture the entire screen or specific windows?
Ecamm uses scenes built from cameras, windows, and media. Telepront isn't part of any scene, so it stays off-air.
Can interview guests use Telepront too?
If they're on a Mac in the same Ecamm Live call, yes — each runs its own local script.
Will it interfere with Ecamm's Interview mode?
No. Telepront sits visually on top but doesn't intercept Ecamm's audio or video pipeline.
Does it work during Ecamm replays and instant-replay edits?
Yes. Use it for prepared recap segments and CTA reads in any Ecamm scene.
Does AI tracking work alongside Ecamm's audio mixer?
Yes. Apple's on-device speech recognition pulls cleanly from the system mic Ecamm shares.
