A teleprompter that lives in your MacBook's notch. Natural eye contact, zero guesswork.
Get Tele on GitHubThe best tool is the one nobody notices. Tele stays out of sight — from your audience, from screen share, from everything except your eyes.
Your script sits directly below the lens. Your audience sees natural eye contact — not someone reading off-screen.
Content-protected window. On Zoom, Meet, or any call — only you can see it. Present with confidence.
MIT licensed. No accounts, no cloud, no telemetry. Your scripts stay local. Fork it, extend it, make it yours.
Tele does one thing and does it well.
Play, pause, speed up, slow down, seek — all without leaving your current app. Hands on keyboard, flow unbroken.
Write with headers, bold, italic, stage directions, and separators. Structured scripts in, clean teleprompter out.
10 speed levels with real-time adjustment. Find your pace and change it on the fly with a keyboard shortcut.
Samples your actual menu bar color and matches it. The app becomes part of your screen — visually seamless.
Scripts in localStorage, config in a JSON file. No server, no sync, no analytics. Your data never leaves your Mac.
Long paragraphs are automatically split at sentence boundaries for comfortable reading at any scroll speed.
Tele will listen as you speak and scroll your script in real time, matching your natural pace. No fixed speed, no manual adjustments. Just talk.
