Free Online Teleprompter
PrompterPal's online teleprompter scrolls your script smoothly across the screen, right in your browser, so you can keep your eyes up while you present, record a video or speak on a call. It works on a laptop, desktop, tablet or phone, with nothing to install.
Free. No sign-up. Your script stays in this browser.
How to use the online teleprompter
-
Add your script
In Edit Mode, type or paste it into the editor, or import a .txt, .docx or .pdf file. The text is plain, so pasting from anywhere keeps the words and drops the formatting.
-
Press Play
Play Mode shows your script full screen in large text. A short Countdown gives you a moment to get ready, then the text starts scrolling.
-
Read at your own pace
Change the Speed while you read, pause with Space, or nudge the text back and forth. Your place is saved, so you can come back to it later.
Features
-
Mirror and Reverse
Mirror the text for a beam-splitter teleprompter rig, or Reverse it so it runs bottom to top.
-
Speed or Duration Mode
Set how fast the text scrolls, or set a Target Duration and let the teleprompter work out the Speed so you finish on time.
-
Browser Fullscreen
Hide the browser's own toolbars so nothing but your script is on screen.
-
Keyboard, remote and clicker keys
Play, pause, change the Speed and move through the text from the keyboard. Assign almost any key to any action, so a Bluetooth remote or presentation clicker works too.
-
Display Settings
Choose the font, font size, alignment and colors, bionic reading, the Cue Indicator that marks your reading line, and the margins.
-
File import
Bring in a script from a text file, a Word document or a PDF.
Read your script on Zoom, Teams or Google Meet
Open the teleprompter in a browser window and place it just under your webcam, so your eyes stay close to the camera while you read. Make the window narrow and the font size large, and set a slow Speed, so you seem to look at the people on the call rather than down at your notes. Keep your hands free with the keyboard or a clicker, and use Browser Fullscreen on a second screen.
Frequently asked questions
Is the online teleprompter free?
Yes. It's free to use, with no sign-up and no account.
Where is my script stored?
Only in this browser, on this device. Your script, your reading position and your Display Settings are saved locally and never uploaded. Start a New Session when you want to begin again with an empty one.
Can I use a Bluetooth remote or a presentation clicker?
Yes. Most clickers send Page Down and Page Up, which nudge the text forward and back by default. Open Key Assignments in Display Settings to give any button the action you want, such as Play/Pause.
Does it work on a phone or tablet?
Yes, in any modern browser. Browser Fullscreen isn't available on iPhone, whose browsers don't support it. To record yourself while you read, use the PrompterPal app.
Get the PrompterPal app
The PrompterPal teleprompter app for iPhone and Android adds video recording, so you can read your script and film yourself at the same time.
