Read full description

A teleprompter that listens. You read at your own pace — pause to think, take a detour, start a sentence over — and Whisprompt keeps the script under your voice, line by line. Nothing to hold, no scroll speed to guess right. VOICE TRACKING You speak. It keeps up. Pause, improvise, start a line over — the line stays where you are. No remote, no fixed speed. If you would rather have a steady crawl, Auto is one tap away with the speed under your thumb. READ IT, AND NOBODY CAN TELL While you film, the script shrinks to a narrow band right beside the lens, so the sideways glance never happens. Front or rear camera, and your voice keeps driving the text while it records. LANGUAGES AND ACCENTS One script, three languages, nothing to switch. Whisprompt reads each language from the text itself, and you set the accent for each one. The app itself speaks 29 languages, and yours is one of them. THE PHONE STAYS PUT Start, pause, pace, Voice or Auto — from your Apple Watch. And one glance tells you the prompter is still hearing you. ADD A SCREEN, NOT A RIG A phone, a tablet or a laptop joins over your local network and simply shows the script. You drive from one device and the rest follow — no cables, no capture card. EVERY SCRIPT IN ONE LIST Write in the app, import a file, or link a Notion page and let it keep itself in sync. Each card shows where the text came from and what language it is in. STAY ON THE CLOCK Set a target time and a calm ribbon hints when you are running long or short. A nudge, never a countdown in your face. CUES THAT ARE NEVER READ ALOUD Drop a cue in the text — "pause", "look at the camera", a stage direction — and it appears as a marker on screen without ever being spoken. HOW THE LISTENING WORKS Out of the box Whisprompt uses the speech recognition built into your phone: free, quick, and it may reach the network to do it. Add an offline language pack and the listening moves onto the device instead — same tracking, no signal required.
