Scroll your script at a steady speaking pace, full screen, with mirror mode, clicker support and camera recording
How to use
Type or paste your script. The word count and speaking time update as you write.
Set the speed in words per minute and the text size. Around 130 to 150 words per minute suits most speakers.
Press Start teleprompter. After a 3 second countdown the text scrolls past the reading line in full screen.
Pause with the space bar, a tap or a presentation clicker. Turn on the camera to see your framing and record a video as you read.
Why use this tool
Speed in words per minute: The scroll speed is set by speaking pace, not pixels, so it stays the same when you make the text bigger or change screens.
Full screen with a reading line: Large, clear text on black with a line that shows where to read, and fades at the top and bottom so your eyes stay in place.
Mirror mode for teleprompter glass: Flip the text left to right or upside down for beam splitter rigs and reflective glass.
Keyboard and clicker control: Space, arrows and plus or minus control everything. A presentation clicker's Page Down and Page Up pause and step back.
Record yourself while reading: Show your camera behind the text to check framing, then record a video with your voice. The text is not in the recording and nothing is uploaded.
Write here, read there: Copy a link that opens the same script on a phone or tablet, with no account and no upload.
Frequently asked questions
How fast should a teleprompter scroll?
Most people speak comfortably at 130 to 160 words per minute. Presenters and news readers often sit around 150. Start at 140, then use the up and down arrows to match your natural pace while you read.
How long will my script take to read?
The time under the script is the word count divided by your chosen speed. For example, 450 words at 150 words per minute is 3 minutes.
Can I use it with a teleprompter mirror?
Yes. Turn on Mirror so the reflection in the glass reads the right way round. Some rigs also need Flip vertical.
Can I record a video with it?
Yes. Turn on Camera and recording, open the teleprompter and press Record. The video saves to your device when you stop, without the scrolling text.
Does it work on phones and tablets?
Yes. Tap the screen to pause and play, and drag to move back or forward. Your phone screen stays on while the teleprompter is open, in browsers that support it.
