What is an Online Teleprompter?

An online teleprompter (also known as an autocue) is a professional tool designed for content creators, speakers, video bloggers, and live streamers. It helps you read pre-written scripts smoothly while recording videos, delivering speeches, or streaming live, without the need to memorize large amounts of content. This browser-based teleprompter works on any device—computers, tablets, and smartphones—with no software download required.

For YouTube creators, corporate trainers, online educators, and public speakers, a teleprompter is an essential tool for improving content quality and delivery fluency. Our Free Online Teleprompter provides a clean, intuitive interface with powerful features, allowing you to focus on your content rather than worrying about forgetting your lines or stumbling over words.

Key Features

  • Smart Scroll Control: Adjustable scrolling speed from 1-10 levels, allowing you to customize the pace according to your reading habits and speech rhythm. Uses requestAnimationFrame technology for ultra-smooth scrolling with no stuttering or frame drops. Speed settings map to realistic WPM (Words Per Minute) ranges from 100-300 WPM.
  • Flexible Font Sizing: Supports font size adjustment from 20px to 100px, adapting to different viewing distances and vision needs. Whether you're using a laptop up close or a large screen from a distance, you can find the most comfortable reading size.
  • Professional Mirror Mode: If you're using a physical teleprompter glass (one-way mirror), you can enable the mirror flip function with one click. Text will be displayed horizontally flipped, and after reflection through the glass, you'll see normally oriented text—perfect for professional recording setups.
  • Local Storage Protection: All your input text and settings are automatically saved to your browser's local storage (LocalStorage). Even if you close the page or refresh your browser, your content won't be lost, ensuring privacy and security.
  • Keyboard Shortcuts: Supports spacebar for play/pause, ESC to exit prompter mode, arrow keys to adjust speed and font size, and more shortcuts for convenient operation without needing a mouse during recording.
  • Full-Screen Immersive Mode: When entering prompter mode, the interface switches to a full-screen black background, eliminating all distractions and allowing you to focus completely on your script content, improving recording quality and speech delivery.
  • Real-Time Statistics: Displays word count and estimated duration based on your current speed setting. Helps you plan your content length and recording time more effectively.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is my script data safe?

Absolutely safe! All text you input is stored only in your own browser's local storage (LocalStorage) and is never uploaded to any server or cloud. We cannot access your data, nor do we collect any personal information. This is a completely client-side tool, guaranteeing your privacy and content security.

Can this tool work offline?

Yes! After your first visit, the browser automatically caches all necessary files (HTML, CSS, JavaScript). Even if you disconnect from the internet, you can still open this page and use all features normally. Your saved text and settings will also remain in your local browser.

Does it work on mobile phones or tablets?

Fully supported! This tool uses responsive design and works perfectly on screens of any size. Whether you're using an iPhone, iPad, Android phone, or tablet, you'll get a smooth user experience. It's especially suitable for use on iPads with external cameras for video recording.

What keyboard shortcuts are available?

We provide rich keyboard shortcuts for improved efficiency:
Space/Enter - Play/Pause ESC - Exit Prompter R - Reset Scroll F - Toggle Mirror

How do I use this with a physical teleprompter device?

If you have professional teleprompter glass (one-way mirror) equipment, simply click the "Mirror" button to enable horizontal flip. Text will display mirrored on screen, and after reflection through the glass, you'll see normally oriented text in front of the camera. This is a common configuration in professional video production.

How accurate is the estimated duration?

The estimated duration is calculated based on your current speed setting and total word count. Speed level 1 corresponds to approximately 100 WPM (slower pace), while speed level 10 corresponds to approximately 300 WPM (faster pace). The default speed 5 is set to ~150 WPM, which is a comfortable conversational pace. Adjust the speed slider to see how it affects your estimated reading time.
