Teleprompter: Keep Eye Contact While You Read the Script
Presentations, recordings, and high-stakes answers go better when you are not staring at notes. Kalfi’s teleprompter sits in the same overlay as live answers: paste a script, highlight the line you are on, and either scroll yourself or let Follow track your voice.
The short version
- Open Teleprompter from the header (scroll-text icon), works alone or inside a meeting thread.
- Manual scroll is free: arrows, Space, wheel, or click a line. No AI tokens.
- Follow reuses Listen (mic) STT to advance the highlight as you speak, no extra LLM call.
- Load talking points from the active session, or paste your own script. Font size is adjustable.
Why a teleprompter belongs next to the answer panel
Live answers help when the other person asks something new. A script helps when you already know what you must say: an opening, a demo walkthrough, a pricing line you practiced. Switching to Notes or a second monitor breaks eye contact. Putting the script in the same always-on-top overlay keeps the camera on you.
How to use it
- Click the teleprompter icon in the Kalfi header.
- Paste your script, or tap From session to pull meeting goals / notes.
- Choose Manual for free scroll, or Follow after starting Listen on Mic or Both.
- Use ↑↓ / Space, click a line, or let Follow advance as you talk. Home restarts from the top.
Token cost
Manual mode costs nothing beyond having the app open. Follow only uses the speech-to-text path you already run for Listen, there is no separate “teleprompter AI” bill. Pair it with live transcript translation when the other side speaks another language, and with stealth branding if the window should look like Notes.
Tip: For a recorded walkthrough, pin the window, hide from Dock, and use Manual scroll so you control the pace without waiting for STT.
