An invisible teleprompter for Zoom and Teams.

Why a teleprompter on calls is tricky

On a video call you usually share your screen, and anything on that screen is shared too. A normal teleprompter window either shows up for everyone, or has to sit on a second monitor where your eyes drift away from the camera. Reading from notes on paper has the same problem.

Pacedot solves both: the prompter is excluded from capture, so you can put it right under your webcam on the screen you are sharing.

Set it up for Zoom

1. Open your script in Pacedot and start the prompter. Drag it just below your webcam and make it narrow.
2. In Zoom, share your whole screen or a window as usual.
3. Check the preview: your slides or app show, and the prompter does not.
4. Pick Voice pacing, so the script moves when you speak and waits for questions.

Set it up for Microsoft Teams

1. Start the prompter in Pacedot and place it under your camera.
2. In Teams, choose Share, then your screen or window.
3. Present. The prompter, its controls and your notes stay on your side only.

The same applies to Google Meet in Chrome or Edge, Webex and other apps that capture the screen through Windows.

Live calls without a script

Not every call is scripted. Notes mode gives you a private deck of talking points, one card at a time, hidden from capture like the prompter. Use it for sales demos, interviews and all-hands updates where you want to sound natural but not forget the key numbers.

Practice before the call

Record a quick practice take in Pacedot first. You will see your pace in words per minute, which pauses you skipped, how many filler words you used, and which section was weakest, so you can rehearse just that part.
