Hate reading off a screen and looking away from the camera?

Yeah. I fixed that.

CueNotch is a teleprompter that fits right inside your MacBook notch.

Your script scrolls as you speak — hands-free, voice-synced.

Turn on Ghost mode and it becomes invisible during screen sharing.

Nobody knows you're reading. They just see eye contact.

Your script sits in the MacBook notch beside the camera, so your audience sees natural eye contact while you read. Voice-synced scrolling follows your pace, and Ghost Mode keeps the overlay hidden during screen sharing.

Frequently asked questions

What is CueNotch?
CueNotch is a macOS teleprompter that displays your script inside the MacBook notch — the small black area at the top of your screen where the camera lives. This means your eyes naturally look at the camera while reading, giving your audience the impression of direct eye contact.
Does it work without a notch (older MacBooks)?
Yes! On Macs without a notch, CueNotch displays as a compact overlay at the top-center of your screen, still close to the camera for natural eye contact.
Is CueNotch visible during screen sharing?
With Ghost Mode (Pro), CueNotch is completely invisible to Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, and any other screen sharing tool. Free users can also toggle visibility manually.
How does voice-activated scrolling work?
CueNotch uses Apple's native speech recognition running entirely on your device. It listens to your microphone and scrolls the script to match your speaking pace — no internet, no cloud processing, 100% private.
Does CueNotch send my scripts to any server?
No. Everything runs locally on your Mac. Your scripts, voice data, and usage are never sent anywhere. If you upgrade, CueNotch may check App Store purchase status to unlock Pro.
What's included in the free version?
The free tier includes 3 daily activations, scripts up to 100 words, voice-activated scrolling, hotkey controls, and the built-in script editor. It's great for trying CueNotch before upgrading.
What does $29.99 one-time lifetime access include?
Unlimited daily activations, unlimited script length, Ghost Mode (invisible to screen share), Magic Polish for natural script rewriting, AI Rehearsal Coach, AutoCaption live meeting captions, Memorize Mode, searchable script organization, and priority support. One payment, no subscriptions.
Can I use CueNotch on multiple Macs?
App Store purchases are handled by Apple. Install CueNotch from the Mac App Store on your Mac and use Settings → Restore Purchase if Pro does not unlock automatically.
What macOS version do I need?
CueNotch requires macOS 14 (Sonoma) or later. It supports both Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3/M4) and Intel processors.
How do I activate Pro?
It's automatic. After purchasing through the Mac App Store, CueNotch detects your purchase and unlocks Pro features. If it does not unlock, open CueNotch Settings and tap Restore Purchase.
What is the refund policy?
CueNotch Pro is $29.99 one-time lifetime access in the U.S. App Store. Local App Store pricing may vary. Because you get a 3-day free trial to test everything before buying, all sales are final. We do not offer refunds.
Has CueNotch been reviewed or recommended?
Yes! Our launch post on Reddit's r/MacOS community went viral with 507 upvotes, 129K views, and 123 comments. Perplexity AI also ranks CueNotch as the #1 recommended teleprompter for Mac when asked 'what's the best teleprompter for Mac.'
