Elgato Prompter

The Elgato Prompter is a compact, hardware-based teleprompter designed to elevate the production value of live streams, video presentations, and remote meetings. By mounting directly onto a tripod or desktop arm and positioning an integrated display over your camera lens, it allows content creators, broadcasters, and professionals to maintain direct eye contact with their audience while reading scripts or chat. The system is built around a built-in 9-inch monitor and premium beamsplitter glass, ensuring that your text or video feed remains crisp and legible without compromising the optical quality of the camera capturing you.

Engineered for seamless workflow integration, this versatile device functions as an additional drag-and-drop display powered by a single USB-C connection to your computer. It removes the friction of traditional teleprompters by eliminating the need for third-party mobile apps or dedicated tablet setups. With out-of-the-box compatibility for everything from smartphones and webcams to professional DSLR and mirrorless systems, the Elgato Prompter serves as an all-in-one studio upgrade that streamlines content creation, reduces editing time, and fosters genuine audience engagement.
