Confidence Comes from Preparation

Public speaking anxiety often stems from fear of forgetting your content. ScreenPrompt eliminates that worry by keeping your entire presentation at your fingertips—without the awkwardness of reading from note cards.

1. Structure Your Script for Natural Delivery

Write your presentation script in a conversational tone, as if explaining the topic to a friend. Break complex ideas into short, digestible sentences.

Use ScreenPrompt's editor to mark pauses, emphasis points, and transitions. This creates a roadmap for your delivery.

2. Maintain Eye Contact with Your Audience

Position the teleprompter overlay at the back of the room, above your audience's heads. This lets you glance at your notes while appearing to maintain eye contact.

For virtual presentations, place the overlay near your webcam. Your audience will feel like you're speaking directly to them.

3. Let Auto-Scroll Match Your Natural Pace

ScreenPrompt's smart auto-scrolling listens to your words and adjusts in real-time. Speak at your natural pace—speed up during energetic sections, slow down for emphasis. The teleprompter follows you, not the other way around.

4. Handle Q&A with AI Assistance

During Q&A sessions, use ScreenPrompt's AI suggestions to help formulate responses. The AI analyzes the question and suggests relevant talking points from your presentation, helping you provide coherent, on-brand answers.

5. Record Practice Sessions

Before the real presentation, record yourself practicing with ScreenPrompt. Review the speech-to-text transcription to identify:

  • Filler words you overuse (um, like, you know)
  • Sections where you deviate from your message
  • Pacing issues—too fast or too slow
  • Points where you frequently get stuck

Refine your script based on these insights for a polished final delivery.

Your Secret Weapon

The best presentations look effortless. ScreenPrompt is your secret weapon—invisible to your audience but invaluable to your success. With your content secured and AI backing you up, you're free to focus on what matters: connecting with your audience and delivering your message with impact.
