How to use this online teleprompter

  1. Paste your script. The page shows how many words it is and about how long it takes to read.
  2. Choose how it moves. Follow my voice, Set speed or Scroll myself.
  3. Press Start and read from the line under the marker. Lost your place? Click the word you are on.
  4. Keep your recording. Press Finish & save, then play it, download an MP3 or throw it away.

How the teleprompter follows your voice

Follow my voice makes this a voice-activated teleprompter. It listens through your microphone and recognises the words you read, on your device, so the script moves while you talk and waits when you stop to breathe, think or ad-lib. The line you are on sits just under the marker. Skip a word or misread one and it keeps up. Your voice is never uploaded.

On a short script it stays within a few words of your voice. A laptop with a graphics card keeps up best; on one without, the speech engine runs behind you, so a long read can scroll ahead of you.

Prefer a steady scroll? Set speed moves the script at 90 to 220 words a minute, and Hear it reads the first words at that pace. Scroll myself leaves it to you. Mirror flips the text for a teleprompter glass.

Fit the script to your screen

On a computer the script starts in a card on the page. Press Expand and it takes the whole window and follows its size. Drag the edges of the column to set how wide the lines are: a narrow column keeps your eyes closer to the camera. Full screen then fills the screen, and Collapse takes you back to the card.

Lost your place? Click the word you are on and the script moves there. Restart goes back to the first word and, if you are recording, starts a new take in place of the old one.

Record while you read

Leave Record my voice on and the teleprompter records you while you read, in any of the three modes. Press Finish & save to play the recording, download it as an MP3 or throw it away. The recording stays on your device and is never uploaded. Turn Record my voice off if you only want the script to scroll. For a transcript and a check against your script, use the free Voice Recorder.

It records audio, not video. To film yourself, read from this page while your camera records.

Frequently asked questions

What is a teleprompter?▼
A teleprompter, also called an autocue or a prompter, scrolls your script on a screen so you can read it while you speak. This one runs in your browser, so there is no teleprompter app to install, and it can follow your voice instead of scrolling at a fixed speed.
How does the teleprompter follow my voice?▼
It listens through your microphone and recognises the words you read, on your device. The script moves while you talk and waits when you pause, so you can read at your own pace. Your voice is never uploaded.
Is this teleprompter free?▼
Yes. It is free with no account and no watermark, and it runs in your browser.
Do I need to install or download anything?▼
There is no app to install. The first time you use Follow my voice, a speech model of about 150–275 MB downloads once and stays on your device. Set speed and Scroll myself don't need it.
Can I set a fixed scrolling speed?▼
Yes. Choose Set speed and pick from 90 to 220 words a minute; press Hear it to hear that pace. Or choose Scroll myself to move the script by hand.
Can I record my voice while I read?▼
Yes. Leave Record my voice on and it records while you read. When you finish you can play the recording, download it as an MP3 or throw it away. It stays on your device and is never uploaded.
Does this teleprompter record video?▼
No, it records audio only. To film yourself, read from this page while your camera or camera app records the video, or use a beam-splitter glass with Mirror on.
Is there a time limit?▼
No time limit is set, and voice-following has been tested on a 12-minute read. On a laptop without a graphics card the speech engine runs behind you, so on a long read the script can scroll ahead of you. Set speed avoids that.
What languages does it follow?▼
Voice-following has been tested in English, Spanish, French and Portuguese. Other languages have not been tested yet, so choose Set speed or Scroll myself if it doesn't keep up: those two work with a script in any language.
Can the script fill the whole window?▼
Yes. On a computer, press Expand while the script is showing and it takes the whole browser window and follows its size. Drag the edges of the column to set how wide the lines are, or press Full screen to fill the screen.
What if I lose my place?▼
Click the word you are on and the script moves there. Restart goes back to the first word and, if you are recording, starts a new take in place of the old one.
Does it have a mirror mode for a teleprompter glass?▼
Yes. Press Mirror while the script is showing to flip the text for a beam-splitter teleprompter.
Can I use it without a microphone?▼
Yes. Choose Set speed or Scroll myself and turn off Record my voice. The page then never asks for your microphone, which also leaves it free for a video call.
