TalkOver: Mac Teleprompter

Voice-following teleprompter for creators and presenters—one-time purchase, no subscription, no data sharing

Problem

Small YouTubers, podcasters, and presenters (like social workers) need a teleprompter, but existing tools are subscription-based, have privacy concerns, or lack features; on Mac, a full-featured, one-time-purchase teleprompter is especially missing.

Solution

Native Mac teleprompter with voice-follow auto-scroll, mirror display, hotkey control, multi-script management, and appearance customization; fully local data, no subscription, one-time purchase.

Users

Small YouTubers, podcasters, teachers, social workers, anyone presenting or recording

MVP

Voice-follow auto-scroll; mirror and full-screen modes; hotkey control; script management; appearance customization; local storage with no upload

Revenue

One-time purchase (e.g., $29-$49) or free trial + paid unlock; paid upgrades for major versions

Why now

Remote work and content creation are normalized, raising demand for one-time, privacy-friendly Mac tools; speech recognition APIs are cheaper, and native frameworks enable fast indie builds
