Spec score 9.0 #2 of 32 in Teleprompter Software

What it is

OtO is teleprompter software that uses markers in scrolling scripts to trigger presentation and show cues. Markers can send MIDI notes or OSC messages, advance slides, and run macro stacks. Listed integrations include PowerPoint, QLab via OSC, lighting consoles, media servers, playback systems via MIDI or HTTP, video routers, and streaming software. OtO says scripts, cues, and integrations run locally and that it operates fully offline. Its desktop app conducts OtOSlides for presentation decks and OtOView for tablets and smartphones. A caller-support window displays upcoming cues, countdown timers, cue types, and time to execution. Operators can jump to script sections, pause or resume cues, override triggers, and reorder markers during a show. Hardware controls include MIDI controllers and profiles for Loupedeck CT and Contour Shuttle Pro and Xpress. The free demo has all features, unlimited personal use, and a watermark and occasional nag screen. Paid options include a 5-day rental for 0.85 USD once, a 1-month rental for 2.49 USD once, and a 1-year license for $9.90 a year.
