See It in Action
The teleprompter market has a pricing problem. Hardware teleprompters start at $50 for flimsy plastic rigs and go up to $2,000+ for professional broadcast equipment. Software teleprompters range from free-but-limited browser tools to $100+ desktop applications. Many 'free' options add watermarks, time limits, or require a subscription after a trial period.
This app is genuinely free with no compromises. It includes AI voice tracking (a feature many paid apps lack), a native floating overlay, 60fps smooth scrolling, and complete offline support. There's no free tier with limitations and a paid upgrade — the free version is the only version, and it includes everything.
