Eye contact, naturally.

How it works

Three steps to effortless eye contact.

No training required. If you can paste text, you can use Menubar Prompter.

01

Paste your notes

Open the menubar app, paste any text — talking points, scripts, key stats. Plain text or bullet points, it handles both.

02

Position below your camera

The prompter window hovers just below your built-in or external camera. Drag it once, it remembers where to go.

03

Start your call and scroll

Use arrow keys or a clicker to scroll at your pace. Text glides silently. Your audience sees your eyes, not your notes.

Lives in your menubar

No dock icon. No extra windows cluttering your screen. One click to open, one click to close — stays out of the way until you need it.

Paste anything

Plain text, bullet lists, Markdown (Pro). No special format required. Paste your Notion notes, your Google Doc, or a text file as-is.

Keyboard speed control

Arrow keys or a presentation clicker scroll the text at exactly your pace. Speed adjusts on the fly so you never rush or stall.

Floats below your camera

The prompter window positions right below your camera lens. Drag it once; the app remembers exactly where you left it next time.

Light and dark mode

Follows your macOS appearance automatically. High-contrast text on the right background — readable even in a bright room.

Fully offline

No account. No cloud sync. No internet required — ever. Your scripts stay on your machine and go with you to any network environment.

What people say

Users who look people in the eye now.

“I stopped looking at my script tab entirely. The eye contact feedback I get from clients went from polite to genuine.”

“Prepped 40 minutes of product demo talk in Notion, pasted it, done. The scroll speed dial is perfect — I barely think about it.”

YS

Yuki S.

Product Manager

“As someone who interviews candidates all day on video, this keeps me present. I look at the person, not at my notes window.”

FAQ

Common questions.

Will the text be visible to the other person on the call?

No. The prompter window is a regular macOS window on your screen. Screen sharing shows only what you explicitly share. If you share your full screen, share a specific window instead — most people do.

Does it work with my external camera?

Yes. Menubar Prompter works with any camera macOS recognises, including Logitech, Sony, Elgato, and iPhone via Continuity Camera. Position the floating window just below whichever camera you are using.

What about the camera notch on newer MacBooks?

The app works perfectly. Position the prompter window slightly below the notch and sit slightly further back from your screen — the notch camera angle then reads the text position as on-axis with your eyes.

Does the app require an internet connection?

Never. Menubar Prompter is fully local. Nothing is sent anywhere. It works on a plane, in a basement, or anywhere else without Wi-Fi.

Can I use a presentation clicker to scroll?

Yes, in the Pro version. Any HID-compatible clicker that sends arrow keys or page-up/down events works. Most Logitech and Kensington clickers qualify.

What is your refund policy?
