PromptSmart is a patented teleprompter application that automatically follows as you speak in real time, without the internet, making your presentations or video productions less stressful and more efficient. PromptSmart's innovative VoiceTrack scrolling method is now expanded into even more languages other than English including: French, Spanish, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Turkish, Chinese (Mandarin), Japanese, Hindi, Ukrainian, Vietnamese, Polish, and Dutch. VoiceTrack automatically moves the text as you speak and stops when you pause or improvise. PromptSmart will wait for you to begin speaking the script again before it continues moving. With PromptSmart, speakers stay calm and act naturally, which saves time and is less stressful. There is no time limit to your presentations. VoiceTrack will continue to listen and scroll with your voice until you close the presentation screen. PromptSmart+ is fast, accurate, and secure, performing all of the speech recognition tasks on the device, without the need for an internet connection. PromptSmart+ will make your presentations or video productions less stressful and more efficient. PromptSmart+ is an invaluable teleprompter tool for a wide range of public speakers; clergy, educators, politicians, podcasters, audiobook creators, business leaders, performers or for those in broadcast media.
