OtO vs SuperPrompter

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.

SuperPrompter is a teleprompter for reading scripts while looking toward a camera. It scrolls at the speaker’s pace and is available on the web, iOS and Android. Users can type or paste scripts, including text from notes, Google Docs and email, then adjust the scroll speed and text size while reading. Mirror mode flips text horizontally for beam-splitter rigs and glass prompters. Voice tracking follows speech and is processed on-device on iPhone and Android. Camera recording overlays the prompt and saves or downloads a clean camera feed to the user’s device. Reading can start without an account; signing in lets users save scripts and sync them across devices. Without an account, scripts remain on the device and are not sent to SuperPrompter’s servers. The Free plan is free and includes all features, no export limit and no watermark. Supporters can contribute what they want for AI search across saved scripts and an assistant using their script library as context. Assistant messages and relevant excerpts go to OpenRouter.
