The Best Teleprompter for Zoom Presentations | Teleflow

How to Use a Teleprompter for Zoom

Presenting on Zoom presents a unique challenge: if you look at your script or your slides, you break eye contact with your audience. If you look at the camera lens, you risk forgetting what to say.

The solution is a professional desktop teleprompter that overlays your script perfectly near your webcam lens.

Why Teleflow is the Best Teleprompter for Zoom

Teleflow runs natively in your browser—no clunky desktop software to install. Here is how professionals use Teleflow for high-stakes Zoom presentations:

  1. The Position: Open Teleflow in Google Chrome. Resize the window to be narrow and place it at the very top-center of your screen, directly below where your webcam is physically mounted.
  2. Transparent Mode (Coming Soon): Keep an eye out for our upcoming transparent window mode, allowing you to see your Zoom grid through your scrolling text!
  3. Voice-Sync (Pro Feature): The biggest mistake Zoom presenters make is looking robotic because they are matching the speed of a scrolling prompter. Teleflow changes this. Upgrade to Pro and turn on Voice-Sync, and the text will only scroll when you speak. When you pause to take a question from the Zoom chat, the prompter pauses with you.

Setup Guide for Zoom Success

  • Write your script like you speak. Don't read a stiff essay. Write bullet points or conversational sentences.
  • Set your scroll zone. In Teleflow, adjust the "Focus Area" so the highlighted text is perfectly aligned with the top of your monitor (closest to the camera).
  • Share your screen wisely. Remember, if you are sharing your entire screen on Zoom, the audience will see your teleprompter! Make sure to only share a specific application window (like your PowerPoint or Keynote presentation), leaving Teleflow hidden exclusively on your screen.
