About

PrompterOne

Features
Read full description

PrompterOne is a voice-following teleprompter and recorder for creators, presenters, educators, and speakers. Keep your eyes near the lens while your script stays in view. READ YOUR WAY Choose Voice Follow, Manual, Fixed Speed, or Timed mode. Follow your natural pace, pause, and move between sections when you need to. Adjust text size, line spacing, cue width, and mirrored reading in Settings. RECORD IN ONE PLACE Switch between Prompt Only, Audio, and Video on the reading screen. Preview the camera behind your script, record a take, then play or share it from the recording library. Captions can be exported as separate files instead of being burned into the video. KEEP SCRIPTS ORGANIZED Create, edit, search, and arrange scripts in folders. Import text or JSON, add cue points, and keep your reading progress. An optional local computer display lets you show the script on a second screen over the same Wi-Fi network. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account is required. Scripts, progress, settings, and recordings stay on your device unless you choose to share or export them. Voice Follow requests microphone and speech-recognition access; Video requests camera access. Manual and paced modes remain available without speech recognition. PrompterOne helps you stay on cue and sound like yourself.
