Teleprompter features

Voice scrolling

The text moves forward as you speak and stops when you pause, so you never have to guess the speed.

Speed in words per minute

Set any speed from 40 to 300 words per minute. Your reading pace stays the same when you resize the text.

Finish in a set time

Enter your video length and the speed is calculated for you, with a live indicator showing if you're early or late.

Mirror mode for prompter glass

Horizontal and vertical mirroring for beam-splitter glass and hardware teleprompter rigs.

Fully adjustable display

Text size and color, width, line spacing, reading-line position, and a focus mode that dims the other lines.

Right-to-left and mixed text

Each paragraph gets its own direction, so English, Persian, Arabic and Turkish text display correctly side by side.

Frequently asked questions

What is ReadScroll?

ReadScroll is a free online teleprompter that runs in your browser. You enter your script and it scrolls the text at your chosen speed, or along with your voice, so you can read on camera smoothly without memorizing.

Is ReadScroll really free?

Yes. Every feature is free, and there is no sign-up, login or app to install.

Where is my script stored?

Your script and settings are stored only in your own browser. They are not sent to ReadScroll's servers.

How does voice scrolling work?

When you turn on voice scrolling, ReadScroll uses your browser's speech recognition to find where you are in the script and moves the text along with you. It works best in Google Chrome, needs an internet connection, and your voice is processed by the browser's speech recognition service.

Does it work on phones and tablets?

Yes. ReadScroll works on phones, tablets and computers in portrait and landscape, and you can add it to your home screen like an app.

Does it work offline?

After your first visit, the teleprompter works without an internet connection. Only voice scrolling needs to be online.

What is mirror mode for?

When a phone or monitor sits under teleprompter glass (a beam splitter), the reflection is reversed. Mirror mode flips the text so it reads correctly on the glass.

What is a good teleprompter speed?

Most people speak comfortably at 110 to 150 words per minute. Start at 130 and adjust with the + and − buttons while you read.

Which languages are supported?

You can use ReadScroll in English, Persian, Arabic and Turkish. Scripts in any of these languages, including mixed left-to-right and right-to-left text, display correctly, and voice scrolling can listen in each of them.
