Descript includes a built-in online teleprompter. Paste or type your script, hit record, and read naturally while keeping your eyes on the camera. The teleprompter never appears in your final recording—even during screen capture.
Get started
These companies use Descript. Not bad!
01
Open your Descript project, click Record, and activate the Teleprompter. Paste, type, or import your script from your composition. Adjust scroll speed, font size, or flip/mirror text if you’re using a physical teleprompter.
02
Select Record to open your recording options. Choose your camera, microphone, or screen, then enable the Teleprompter. As you speak, your script scrolls automatically (or manually if you prefer), helping you stay on pace. The teleprompter window never appears in your final recording.
03
Trim mistakes or pauses instantly, and remove filler words with a single click. To look like you were reading straight into the camera, apply the Eye Contact AI effect to your recording after you finish.
Remove “ums” and “uhs” automatically for clearer audio, then apply Eye Contact to adjust your gaze so it looks like you were locked on the camera—even if you read from your script the whole time.
Whether you’re making a podcast, YouTube video, social post, presentation, tutorial, or course—if it has a script, Descript can handle it. Your teleprompter script and transcript are generated as you record, so you can jump straight to any moment and edit with ease.
No more juggling separate apps for teleprompter, recording, and editing. Descript gives you one workspace where you can script, record, refine, and export—all in one streamlined workflow.
Descript is an AI-powered video and audio editor that combines teleprompter, recording, and editing in one simple workspace.
Make edits as easily as editing text. Cut, trim, and rearrange your content instantly—perfect for podcasts, tutorials, or video projects.
AI subtly realigns your gaze so it looks like you were reading straight into the camera, even when you weren’t.
Turn on Studio Sound to remove background noise and polish your voice—no fancy recording setup required.
Use Overdub to generate a voice that sounds just like you. Instantly turn text into natural-sounding speech.

Yes. And with Descript, you don’t just get a teleprompter—you also get integrated recording and editing in the same app.
Descript’s built-in teleprompter lets you keep your script close to the camera lens for a natural look. After recording, you can also apply the Eye Contact effect to make it appear as if you were looking directly into the camera the whole time.
Yes. Just paste your script into Descript, adjust scroll speed and font size, and record while you read. The teleprompter is built-in, so you don’t need extra software or hardware to get started.
