Teleprompter + recorder · Windows now, iPhone & Android next

Follow the dot. Speak right on the dot.

Pacedot is a teleprompter that shows you how to say it, not only what to say. A bouncing dot leads you through your script: it holds on pauses, slams the words to stress, slows you down and lifts your energy. And nobody else sees it: the prompter stays out of Zoom, Teams, OBS and your recordings.

On the stage

A prompter with a director inside.

Your script floats over everything you do, and only you can see it. The line you are on is bright. The dot lands on each word as you reach it and turns into the cue that comes next. In Voice mode it moves while you speak and waits while you stop, so a pause never runs you off the page.

The dot's vocabulary

Seven things the dot can tell you.

Every cue on your script has one colour, one sign and one move. You never read an instruction mid-sentence. You follow the dot.

01Pause
Twelve thousand tickets. In one quarter.

The dot becomes a purple pause sign. Stop until its ring runs out.

02Stress
We did it with thesame team.

It climbs, slams down in amber and strikes the word. Hit it.

03Breathe
Here is the plan. Three steps.

It swells in green, then lets go. Breathe in, then start.

04Slow down
Now, let this part land.

Heavy, low arcs with echoes behind it, like slow motion.

05Speed up
Open it, click save, done.

Light, short skips with streaks. Keep it moving.

06Lift the energy
So how did we do it?

It pulses and throws sparks while the words hop. Stay up.

07Your turn
Ready when you are.

In Voice mode it waits with a microphone until you start talking.

and the words act it out too.

Stressed words punch to 1.3×. Energy words hop. Faster words lean forward, slower ones float. A pause makes the next words wait.

Prefer calm? Still keeps the colours, signs and timer ring and drops the motion. Underline and Spotlight guides are there too.

How it works

Before, during and after the take.

Most teleprompters show your words. Pacedot marks how to say them, leads you through them, then tells you how it went.

01 · Mark

Your script, marked like a director would.

Paste a script and pick a style: social video, presentation or tutorial. Pacedot draws the delivery on the words and writes a note in the margin for each choice. Those marks are what the dot acts out on the stage.

  • Pauses, stress, pace, breaths and energy
  • Accept, change or remove any mark
  • Free on-device rules, or the AI director in Premium

02 · Read and record

Read naturally. Record four ways.

Record your screen, your camera, both, or your voice only, with your microphone and computer sound. A countdown starts the take, the main window gets out of the way, and if anything crashes the take is recovered.

  • Hidden from screen sharing and recording
  • Notes mode for talking points instead of a script
  • Rehearse mode: feedback with nothing saved
The Pacedot prompter during a recording: the current line is bright, stressed numbers are underlined in amber, a pause and a breath sign follow the sentence, a slower run is blue and an energy run is pink.

The real app, mid-take.

03 · Review

Stop. Get notes and a cleaner cut.

Speech recognition runs on your PC and lines your take up against your script. You see what worked, what to fix, and a version with the ums and restarts already cut.

  • Pace, pauses kept, fillers and skipped lines
  • Jump to your weakest section and retake just that part
  • Captions and exports for every platform

A filler, a false start and a long pause, found and cut on your PC. Every cut stays visible and your original is always kept.

Every format

One coach for everything you publish.

Live calls, tutorials, shorts and podcasts need different things. The dot is the same in all of them.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Is the prompter really invisible on Zoom, Teams and OBS?
Yes, on Windows 10 (version 2004 or later) and Windows 11. Pacedot asks Windows to leave the prompter, your notes and the controls out of every screen capture, so screen shares and recordings show what is behind them instead. That covers Zoom, Microsoft Teams, OBS Studio, Google Meet in the browser and Pacedot’s own recorder. Your camera still sees you, so place the prompter near your webcam to keep eye contact.
Does it scroll with my voice?
Voice mode moves the script while you are speaking and holds it when you stop, so you never chase the text and a pause never runs you off the page. It follows your pace rather than matching each word; word-by-word tracking is in development. Timed and Manual modes are there when you want them.
Is Pacedot free?
Yes. The invisible prompter, voice pacing, on-device cue marks, recording, delivery feedback, automatic cuts and captions are free, with 1080p exports that carry a small “Made with Pacedot” mark. Premium ($8.99 a month or $69.99 a year) adds the AI director, removes the mark, and unlocks 4K and full sound clean-up. Everything is free during the beta.
What does the AI director do?
It reads your script the way a director would and marks where to pause, which words to stress, where to breathe, and where to slow down or lift the energy, with a short note on why. You accept, change or remove each mark. Premium includes 60 script-minutes a month, about twenty 3-minute scripts. Free users get on-device rule-based marks.
Do my recordings get uploaded anywhere?
No. Recordings, scripts and transcripts are saved on your PC, and speech recognition runs on your PC. The only thing that ever leaves is the script text, when you ask the AI director to mark it up.
Which languages does it support?
English, French and Arabic at launch, including right-to-left scripts, cue rules in each language and on-device transcription for captions and feedback. More languages are on the way.
Is there a phone version?
Yes, on the way. Pacedot launches on Windows first, then comes to iPhone and Android. One Premium subscription will work on your PC and your phone, with your scripts synced between them.
Can I use it with a glass teleprompter rig, or without a script?
Yes to both. Mirror mode flips the text for beam-splitter glass. Notes mode gives you a private deck of talking points when you would rather speak freely than read.
When can I get it?
The private beta opens on the Microsoft Store for people on the waitlist first. The first 500 sign-ups get Premium for $49 for the first year, and keep that price when they renew.
