What it does

A prompter that stays out of the way.

Everything you need to stay on script, and nothing that asks for your card.

Notch

Your script, beside the lens

Text sits directly under the camera, so reading it looks like eye contact.

Voice

Scrolls when you speak

Pause for breath and the text waits. Your audio never leaves your Mac.

Private

Hidden from screen sharing

Share your whole screen. The prompter is left out of what viewers get.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Is it really free?

Yes. Every feature in the Mac app is free, with no account and no time limit.

My Mac has no notch. Does it still work?

Yes. On an iMac or external monitor the prompter sits at the top centre of the screen, or you can switch to the floating window and place it anywhere.

Can people see it when I share my screen?

Notchnote asks macOS to leave the prompter out of screen sharing, recordings and screenshots. This is on by default and you can switch it off in settings. Do a quick test call in the meeting app you use before relying on it.

How does voice scrolling work?

Notchnote measures how loud your microphone is. While you talk the script moves, and when you stop it waits. Audio is never recorded or sent anywhere. Loud rooms can trigger it, so there is a sensitivity slider.

What if I lose my place?

Hover the prompter to pause, scroll with two fingers, or jump to the previous or next cue with ⌥⌘← and ⌥⌘→.

Where are my scripts stored?

In a folder on your Mac. Nothing is uploaded.

Is there a Windows version?

No. Notchnote is built for the Mac, with iPhone and iPad next.
