Free Teleprompter for Zoom Meetings

Zoom calls, Microsoft Teams meetings, and Google Meet presentations are where first impressions are made every day. CuePrompter lets you read your talking points while looking directly at your webcam — so you come across as prepared and confident, not like you're reading from notes.

Why Use a Teleprompter on Zoom

On video calls, people can see your eyes. When you look down at notes or off to a second monitor, it's obvious. A teleprompter positioned near your webcam lets you read your script while appearing to look directly at the camera — and at your audience.

Perfect for:

• Sales calls and demos — Hit every feature, benefit, and objection handler without missing a beat.
• Virtual presentations — Deliver company-wide updates, quarterly reviews, or client presentations with confidence.
• Webinars — Keep your content on track during 30-60 minute sessions where going off-script can cost you your audience.
• Job interviews — Have your key accomplishments and answers to common questions scrolling discreetly nearby.
• Online teaching and lectures — Cover complex material in the right order without constantly checking your notes.
• Team standups and status updates — Quickly run through your updates without forgetting anything.

How to Set Up CuePrompter for Zoom

1. Write your script or talking points — Prepare what you want to say. The AI Script Generator can help you draft professional scripts for any type of meeting.
2. Open CuePrompter — Go to cueprompter.com and paste your text.
3. Position the browser window — This is the key step. Resize the CuePrompter window and place it directly below your webcam (usually at the top of your screen). The closer the text is to your camera, the more natural your eye contact will look.
4. Make the Zoom window smaller — Resize your Zoom or Teams window so it sits below or beside the prompter. You don't need to see participants full-screen while you're presenting.
5. Start the prompter, then present — Begin scrolling, then switch to your Zoom window to share your screen if needed. The prompter will keep scrolling in its own window.

Tips for Using a Teleprompter on Video Calls

• Use a narrow prompter window — A thin, tall window placed right under your camera works best. Your eyes barely move, and it looks completely natural.
• Slow down the scroll speed — Video calls have a conversational pace. Set the speed to match how you'd naturally talk to someone, not how you'd deliver a speech.
• Don't script everything — For meetings with discussion, use bullet points for your sections and improvise the rest. Full scripts work better for one-way presentations.
• Use a second monitor — If possible, put CuePrompter on a monitor with a webcam, and Zoom on your other screen. This way you can reference the teleprompter and see participants' reactions.
• Practice the first 30 seconds — Your opening sets the tone. Rehearse the start of your presentation so it sounds polished and confident.
• Keep a glass of water nearby — Sounds simple, but reading and talking for extended periods dries your mouth. Stay hydrated.

Teleprompter.com Works Great with Zoom Too

If you present on Zoom regularly, Teleprompter.com has features specifically useful for video calls:

• Voice-activated scrolling — The script follows your speech pace automatically. When someone interrupts with a question, the scroll pauses until you resume speaking.
• Works on macOS — Run Teleprompter.com on your Mac alongside Zoom. Position it right under your webcam for seamless reading.
• Cloud script sync — Prepare scripts anywhere via Google Drive, Dropbox, or iCloud and have them ready for your next call.
• Multi-platform streaming — If you stream to LinkedIn Live, YouTube, or other platforms simultaneously, the app supports multi-platform live streaming.
• Remote control — A colleague can control your scroll speed from another device so you can focus entirely on presenting.
