ShareSpeak solves a specific and very common problem: presenters, creators and teachers need to read a script while looking at the camera, and ordinary teleprompters either show up on screen recordings or force you to break eye contact. ShareSpeak renders its teleprompter as an overlay that never appears in screen shares or recordings, and on Macs it lives in the notch bar — the point physically closest to the webcam — so your gaze stays near the lens while you read.
The scrolling is voice-driven rather than timed, which means you set the pace by speaking. You can pause, rewind, double-click any word to jump straight to it, or step forward five words with a shortcut, presentation clicker or foot pedal. Scripts are organised in a library so you can keep one per call, account or video, with Word import, sections you jump between and bracketed cues you never read aloud. Timing tools add a countdown, a clock showing time left, and an ahead-or-behind indicator against your target, plus a history of takes.
The latest 0.4.2 release adds mirror mode for beam-splitter glass rigs, foot-pedal control and Word import. Speech recognition is your choice of Gemini, Whisper (including Whisper Large v3 Turbo on Apple Silicon) or Apple Speech Recognition, and local models can run entirely offline. The app follows voice in 30+ languages. Pricing is a one-time purchase rather than a subscription, currently around $14.99 with lifetime updates and a 21-day refund policy, and the site reports more than 400 customers.
