v1.3: The prompter your audience never sees — hidden from screen recordings, Zoom, FaceTime and OBS capture. Voice-tracked, 140pt mirror rigs, 100% offline.
Voice-tracked teleprompter for Mac that actually keeps up. Words highlight in real time as you speak — built on Apple's native speech engine, no clicker, no drift, no second screen. Eye contact with the camera, every take.
Built for creators, podcasters, voice-over artists, broadcasters, presenters, and anyone who reads on camera.
WHY TELLY
• Voice-tracked scrolling — Read at your own pace. Telly's speech engine tracks every word and keeps the script in sync. Skip ahead, pause, re-read — it follows you.
• 140pt mirror-rig type — From a 30pt notch overlay up to 140pt for hardware teleprompter rigs. Mirror-axis flip for beamsplitter prompters.
• OBS chroma-key and browser source — Drop the prompter into OBS over green or blue chroma, or pull it as a transparent browser source. Stream Deck and Shortcuts remote via the tele:// URL scheme.
• Live take controls — ↑ / ↓ adjust scroll speed mid-take. R restarts from the top without dismissing the overlay. ? shows the shortcut cheat-sheet.
• Universal script import — PDF, DOCX, RTF, Markdown, plain text, or PPTX. Telly splits on pages, paragraphs, or form feeds.
• Auto-pace to target time — 60-second ad read? Set a target and Telly auto-derives scroll speed so the script finishes on the dot.
• Invisible on screen share — The prompter stays out of screen recordings, Zoom, FaceTime and OBS display capture. Your audience sees you, never the script.
• Transcript export — Save the last take as plain text or as SRT captions ready for Premiere, CapCut, or Final Cut.
• Check before you roll — Pick your input device, watch the live level meter, then start on a 3-2-1 countdown with an audio cue so your eyes never leave the lens.

The prompter your audience never sees.
• Hidden from screen sharing — Telly stays out of screen recordings, Zoom, FaceTime and OBS display capture, so your script never ends up in the shot. On by default; one switch in Output turns it off.
• Rebuilt settings — Three panels: Look, Reading, Output. Every typeface and size previews itself before you commit.
• Pick your microphone — Choose any input device and watch a live level meter before the take starts.
• Recognition language picker — Telly now tells you which languages it can recognize entirely on this Mac, offline.
• Follow Mouse — The notch prompter moves to whichever display your pointer is on, or stays pinned to one you choose.
• Press ? during a take for the shortcut sheet, and jump between pages from the page picker.
• Fifteen script templates — now including eulogy, toast, conference keynote, startup pitch, webinar, tutorial and sponsor read.
• Page tools — Add, duplicate and reorder pages with ⇧⌘N, ⇧⌘D and ⌥⌘[ / ⌥⌘].
• Browser remote — Scan a QR code to open the prompter on a phone, and copy OBS browser-source URLs in chroma green, chroma blue or transparent.
• Reset every setting to its default in one click.
