| Notable limitation | Open Prompter reads scripts but does not generate them. | The site says the page needs to load before use and describes voice-follow scrolling as a feature of native apps rather than Teleprompterly. |
| Privacy | The app has no account, server component, or network functionality of its own, and the maker says it does not see, store, or transmit your files. | Scripts are stored in browser storage and recordings stay in browser memory until downloaded; the site says nothing is sent to a server. |
| Recording | The front camera can record while you read, and the take can be saved beside its script. | The Studio records camera and microphone while the script scrolls over the camera feed, with 16:9, 9:16 and 1:1 framing options. |
| What it does | Open Prompter reads Markdown files from a folder you choose and displays them as teleprompter scripts. | Teleprompterly is a browser teleprompter that lets creators read scripts while recording camera video or audio. |

Teleprompterly
Teleprompterly is a browser-based teleprompter for reading a script while recording video or audio. Its Studio records from a camera and microphone, with the script scrolling over the camera feed and framing options of 16:9, 9:16 and 1:1. Readers can choose among ten scroll speeds and adjust them while reading. Display controls include font sizing, an eye-line marker, a progress bar, tap-to-pause and keyboard shortcuts; mirror mode flips text for beam-splitter rigs. It supports English and Hindi in Devanagari, including mixed-language scripts. The free plan is free forever, allows unlimited script length, requires no account and adds no watermark; recordings can be downloaded. Scripts stay in browser storage and recordings in browser memory until download, and the site says data is not sent to a server. It works in Chrome, Edge, Safari and Firefox on desktop and mobile browsers, including phones and tablets. You can use it alongside Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet and Webex. Voice-follow scrolling is described as a native-app feature, not a Teleprompterly feature.
