Cuewright | Teleprompter

Description

Paste a script and it scrolls at the speed you read, in a window or in an overlay under the webcam that stays out of screen shares. No account. Works offline.

For anyone who records videos, lessons or calls on a PC and has to look at the camera while talking.

Opens .txt, .md and .docx files and reads them as plain text; .rtf and .pdf are not supported. Scripts stay on your PC and nothing is sent anywhere.

Features

• A library of scripts, each one a plain text file with its title, its word count and how long it takes to read.
• Import .txt, .md and .docx files, drop one on the window or paste one in with nothing open.
• Plain text editor with autosave, a word counter and the reading time at the speed set next to it.
• Reading speed in words per minute, 60 to 300, changed with the arrow keys, the wheel or a presentation remote.
• A reading line at the top, one third down or in the middle, with the text above and below handed back to the background.
• A countdown of three or five seconds before the text starts moving, or none at all.
• Lines that start with // are notes for the reader, in another colour, and [PAUSE] stops the scroll until play.
• An overlay without borders at the top of the screen, under the webcam, always on top, dragged and resized by its edges, with an adjustable background and an optional click-through mode.
• The overlay can be kept out of screen shares and recordings, so the call does not see the script.
• Global keys, Ctrl+Alt+Space and the arrows by default, work while another app has the focus.
• Mirror the text horizontally or vertically for a teleprompter glass, and pick the font, the size, the line spacing, the margins and the colours.
• The speed and the place in the script are remembered per script, with a Resume from 2:14 offered on the next open.
• Light and dark themes, following Windows by default. The reading keeps its own colours.
• 100% offline. No account, no telemetry and nothing sent anywhere; the scripts and the settings stay in the app's own folder on this PC.
