CueCast Prompter vs EasyPrompter

CueCast Prompter is cross-platform teleprompting software with smooth scrolling, rich-text scripts and an advanced timer system. Its editor supports bold, italic, underline, colours, highlights, baseline and alignment formatting, plus emoji. It imports Word, PowerPoint and OpenOffice documents and exports scripts to PDF. The free plan includes basic prompting, script editing, script-based triggers and full-screen prompting on a local display. Pro adds a basic 100-minute timer and an advanced timer with countdown, count-up, time-based countdowns, coloured tags and labels. Pro also supports NewTek NDI and output to Blackmagic Design devices using SDI/SMPTE2110. SlideSync can synchronise stories with slides in PowerPoint, ProPresenter and XPression. Other Pro features include IP-based remote control and unlimited remote extenders. The Pro trial lasts 30 days; afterward, use is limited to basic prompting and script editing unless a Pro licence is purchased. That licence is perpetual, with no subscription fees, but a new licence is needed to upgrade. Current downloads require Windows 10 or newer on Intel/AMD PCs, Windows 11 on ARM PCs, or macOS 12 Monterey or newer; Linux downloads are also offered.

EasyPrompter is browser-based teleprompter software for creators and production teams. Users write scripts, open them in a browser prompter, and send them to local or remote displays. The viewer supports variable-speed scrolling, mirror mode, timers, fullscreen, rich-text formatting, cue markers, and right-to-left scripts. PaceMirror keeps connected screens at a shared script position while allowing each display to use its own layout and settings. Prepared scripts can be used offline, with changes synchronizing after the connection returns; offline editing depends on the plan. Production controls include OBS and vMix browser-source overlays, Stream Deck, Bitfocus Companion, keyboards, pedals, and clickers. Scripts can be shared with named users or role groups, or through external links with expiration and revocation controls. Studio workspaces have Admin, Producer, Editor, and Talent roles, and Talent members are free. The Free plan is free and allows two saved scripts, up to 500 promptable words per script, and one basic viewer display. Creator costs $10.75 a month, billed annually at $129 a year, and includes offline editing and a phone remote. Other listed options include a one-time Event Pass and paid Operator and Studio plans.
