## What it is
NotchPrompt is a native macOS teleprompter app that displays a scrolling script in a floating overlay next to the MacBook notch, letting you read while maintaining eye contact on camera. It includes transport controls, adjustable speed and size, keyboard shortcuts, and a privacy mode that hides the overlay during screen sharing.

## Use cases
- read a script while recording a video without looking down at notes
- keep eye contact during video calls with a hidden teleprompter
- hide the prompter during screen sharing
- scroll presentation notes at adjustable speed
- import and export plain text scripts for talks

## When to choose
- you have a MacBook with a notch and need a discreet on-camera teleprompter
- you want a free, open-source alternative to subscription teleprompter apps
- you need the prompter hidden during screen shares or recordings

## When to avoid
- you need a signed/notarized app for managed or locked-down Macs
- your Mac has no notch or runs macOS older than 13
- you need teleprompting on Windows, Linux, or mobile devices
