Teleprompter for podcasters
Keep your monologues tight.
Podcasting rewards a loose, conversational voice — right up until the sponsor read, where every word is contractually specific and every stumble costs a retake. A prompter lets you keep the loose register for the conversation and switch to exact wording only where it matters.
It matters more again for video podcasts, where the audience can see you glance down at a script. Putting the words next to the lens keeps your eye line steady across a ninety-minute record without forcing you to memorise anything.
Why podcasters use it
- Deliver ad reads and intros with consistent pacing every episode.
- Stay on-script for structured interviews and solo episodes.
- Ideal for video podcasts recorded on a second monitor.
- Keep legally exact sponsor wording without memorising it.
Recommended settings
Podcast delivery is slower and more relaxed than a YouTube intro. Give yourself room to breathe.
- Scroll speed
- 120–140 wpm. Slower than you'd expect: a relaxed read sounds better than a rushed one.
- Font size
- 56–72 px, so you can read it from a normal seated distance without leaning in.
- Display
- Warm yellow on black is easier on the eyes across a long record than pure white.
A comfortable read
Set a slightly slower scroll speed and a larger font than you would for short-form video, then place the screen just above or beside your microphone so your head stays square to the camera. Save your intro, outro and each sponsor read as separate named scripts and load them as you reach them — it's faster than scrolling through one long document and it stops you reading last month's advertiser by accident.
