Why professionals choose Avocado over Teleprompter.com

Less than half the price

Teleprompter.com Pro is $19.99/mo per seat month to month, or roughly $96 a year on their annual plan. Avocado Pro is $7.99/mo or $79.99 a year — and the free tier costs nothing at all, with no watermark on anything you record.

Your scripts stay on your Mac

Teleprompter.com is cloud-based, so scripts live on its servers and it needs an account. Avocado processes everything on-device, requires no account and works with the Wi-Fi off — which matters if your material is legal, medical, financial or unreleased.

Above the lens, and invisible

Running in a browser or app window means Teleprompter.com appears on screen shares and sits beside your eyeline. Avocado docks into the notch directly above the camera and is excluded from screen capture at the macOS level.

Record from the script, or keep your recorder

Avocado Pro's Recording Studio films each take while the prompter runs, stops when you reach the last line, cuts the pauses in a click and exports 16:9, 9:16 or 1:1. Because the prompter stays out of screen capture, it also works alongside QuickTime, ScreenFlow, OBS or Final Cut if you'd rather keep those.

An honest take

When to pick Teleprompter.com instead

If you record on your iPhone and iPad as well as your Mac and want everything synced through the cloud, Teleprompter.com is genuinely strong — buy theirs. Pick Avocado if you're Mac-first: it reads from the notch, records and trims takes on your Mac with Recording Studio, keeps your scripts on your machine, and stays out of every screen share.
