Read scripts naturally during Google Meet calls
Reading from a script in Google Meet usually means awkward eye drift to a second window or a phone. Telepront fixes that with a floating teleprompter for macOS that sits directly over your Meet tab in Chrome or Safari. Built natively in Swift for Apple Silicon, it tracks your voice on-device and never charges a subscription.
See It in Action
Google Meet runs in the browser, which makes traditional teleprompter overlays unreliable because they often get hidden when Chrome takes focus. Telepront avoids that entirely by running as a native macOS window with always-on-top behavior, so your script stays visible whether you are in a 1:1, a webinar-style call, or a large company all-hands. Position it just below your built-in camera to keep your gaze locked near the lens.\nBecause Telepront uses Apple's on-device speech recognition, it scrolls only when you actually speak. If a colleague interrupts or you pause to think, the script waits with you instead of running ahead. There is no cloud transcription, no API key, and no usage cap, which matters when your Meet call is covered by an enterprise NDA.\nUnlike browser-based teleprompters, Telepront does not need a tab, an extension, or a login. You launch the app, paste your notes, and start your Meet. Adjustable opacity means you can see the speaker tiles behind the script, so you stay aware of who is reacting and when to slow down.\nThe app does not record video. Pair it with Meet's built-in recording, a screen recorder, or a separate camera workflow. Telepront's job is purely to make reading look natural, and it does that with adjustable speed, mirror mode for hardware rigs, and font sizes large enough to read from across the room.
Key Features
How to Get Started
Install Telepront from the Mac App Store
Search Telepront on the Mac App Store or open id 6759193513 directly. The download is free and requires macOS 14 or later on Apple Silicon.
Paste your Meet talking points
Open Telepront, paste your script or agenda, and pick a comfortable font size. Larger text reads better when the panel sits near the camera.
Start your Google Meet call
Launch Meet in Chrome or Safari and join the meeting. Telepront stays floating above the browser without disrupting the call.
Position the panel under your webcam
Drag Telepront to snap just below your camera. This keeps your eye line nearly identical to looking at the lens.
Speak naturally and let voice tracking scroll
Telepront listens on-device and scrolls in time with your delivery. Use a keyboard shortcut to pause if a participant asks a question.
Tips from Creators
Set opacity around 80 percent so you can still see Meet participant reactions through the script.
Use 36-48pt font when sitting two to three feet from your MacBook, larger if you use an external display.
Place the Telepront panel within an inch of your camera so your eye line reads as direct eye contact.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Telepront work with Google Meet in Chrome?
Yes. Telepront is a separate macOS window that floats over any browser, so Chrome, Safari, Arc, or Brave running Google Meet all work identically.
Will Google Meet participants see my teleprompter?
No. Telepront only renders on your screen. Unless you actively share your full desktop, attendees only see your camera feed.
Do I need to grant microphone permission?
Yes, for voice tracking. macOS will prompt once for mic and speech recognition access. Recognition runs on-device, so audio never leaves your Mac.
What macOS version and chip do I need?
Telepront requires macOS 14 or later and runs natively on Apple Silicon (M1, M2, M3, M4). Intel Macs are not supported.
Does Meet's pinning or layout change affect Telepront?
No. Telepront sits on top of the Meet window regardless of whether you pin yourself, switch to spotlight, or change layouts.
