QPrompt vs Teleprompterly

QPrompt is a free, open-source teleprompter app for event operators and video creators working alone or in small teams. It runs on Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android under the GNU General Public License v3, with no charge for commercial use. An adjustable reading area helps keep eyes toward the camera, while an opacity slider makes the background semi-transparent for video calls or other applications behind the script. The rich-text editor opens and copies formatted text from office suites, and LibreOffice can open additional formats in the background. Markers jump to script positions; a chronometer times scripts and estimates completion. Keyboard shortcuts work with presentation clickers and Contour Shuttle Controllers, and KDE Connect presentation mode can control scrolling from a phone. OpenDyslexic, horizontal guides, right-to-left support, and fonts for more than 180 languages address varied readers. Multiple screens are supported, except in the Snap build.

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.
