A teleprompter that follows your voice.
Most teleprompters scroll at a fixed speed. You match their pace, or you fall behind. OnCue works the other way: it listens to you speak and moves the script to keep up with you.
Paste your script
Copy any text into OnCue. Video scripts, presentation notes, blog posts, interview prep. No formatting required.
Hit Start and read out loud
OnCue listens through your microphone and matches your words to the script in real time. The text highlights as you speak, scrolling to keep your current line in view.
Record your video in one take
Speed up when you're confident. Slow down to emphasize a point. Pause to collect your thoughts. The script follows your natural rhythm, not the other way around.
How voice tracking works
OnCue uses your browser's built-in speech recognition to convert your voice to text in real time. It then matches what you said against your script using a sequence alignment algorithm that finds the best match even when you skip words, add words, use contractions, or mispronounce something.
This means you can say "gonna" when your script says "going to." You can pause mid-sentence and pick back up. You can improvise a few words and the teleprompter finds its place again. It handles natural speech, not just perfect reading.
All of this happens on your device. Your script and your voice stay in your browser. Nothing is sent to a server.
What makes it different
Fixed-speed teleprompters force you to match a scrolling pace. If you stumble, the text keeps moving. If you pause to make eye contact with the camera, you lose your place. You end up recording take after take.
Foot-pedal teleprompters give you control but split your attention. You're reading, performing, and operating a pedal at the same time.
OnCue removes all of that. You read. It follows. Your hands and feet are free. Your attention stays on the camera.

Works on every device
The web app runs in Chrome, Edge, and Safari on any computer or tablet. No software to install. No account required to try the demo.
The iOS app works on iPhone and iPad. It includes a built-in camera, so you can read your script and record video in the same app. One device, one take.
Both versions use the same voice tracking engine. Buy one or both, depending on how you record.
Common questions
Does it work with accents?
Yes. OnCue uses your browser's speech recognition, which supports a wide range of accents and dialects. The matching algorithm is fuzzy by design: it handles mispronunciations, filler words, and natural speech variation.
What if I go off-script?
OnCue waits. If you improvise for a few sentences, it pauses the scroll. When you return to the script, it picks up where you left off. If you skip a section, it jumps ahead to match.
Does it need an internet connection?
For the web app, yes (speech recognition runs through the browser). The iOS app can work offline using on-device speech recognition.
What about privacy?
OnCue does not collect, store, or transmit your scripts or voice data. The web app processes everything in your browser. The iOS app processes everything on your device. There are no analytics on your content.
Can I use it with a beam-splitter prompter?
Yes. Press M to enable mirror mode, which flips the text horizontally for use with a beam-splitter (like an Elgato Prompter). Font size, reading position, and text width are all adjustable.
Is there a free trial?
The landing page demo lets you try voice tracking before buying. You can read a sample script with your own voice and see how it follows you. No account required.
One price. No subscription.
Web app: $29. iOS app: $39.99. Both are one-time purchases.
