It follows the words you say.
For supported languages, Apple Speech advances the active word as you speak. Pause without racing a timer, and switch Voice Follow off whenever you want manual control.
Keep your script close to the camera for presentations and video calls. On-device Voice Follow follows recognized words in supported languages, while global shortcuts keep your hands off the Mac. A separate iPhone remote is planned.
On-device voice control
A fixed-speed teleprompter makes you chase the script. TeleNotch can follow recognized words on-device, or use local volume detection when word following is unavailable.

Word-by-word highlighting and a fixed eye-line guide remove the tiny moments of panic that make a take feel unnatural.
The separate iPhone companion will let you approve one nearby device, then send play, pause, reset, speed, and scroll-back commands over an encrypted local connection.

Check the requirements, privacy boundaries, release status, and capture limitations before relying on TeleNotch for an important session.
TeleNotch is a native teleprompter for macOS 14 or later. It keeps scripts close to the camera for video calls, presentations, recordings, and live speaking, with manual scrolling, on-device Voice Follow, global shortcuts, and multiple-display support.
No. For supported languages, TeleNotch requests on-device recognition through Apple Speech. If on-device word following is unavailable or Speech Recognition permission is not granted, TeleNotch can use local volume detection instead. Microphone access is still required for either voice mode. The current app has no TeleNotch account or cloud transcription service.
Do not assume that any overlay is invisible in every capture setup. TeleNotch includes a screen-capture privacy control, but the result can depend on the app, macOS version, and whether you share one window or the whole display. Test your exact workflow before a live call or recording.
The planned companion connects to TeleNotch over an encrypted local Multipeer Connectivity session. The Mac shows an approval prompt before accepting one nearby iPhone, and the remote sends playback controls rather than script content. The iPhone app will be distributed separately and is not publicly available yet.
TeleNotch requires macOS 14 or later and builds for both Apple silicon and Intel Macs. Its screen selector and adjustable layout support built-in and external displays; test the placement that best matches your camera.
