Most teleprompters make you follow them. Tellie follows you. It listens to the words you actually say, so you can pause, skip, improvise, or go off script without losing your place. Now Tellie 1.5 knows what you haven’t said yet, too. It tracks your important points, warns when you’re running long, and debriefs your take. All in a 3 MB Mac app that runs locally, with no account and no telemetry. Free for 10 days and $10 off for ProductHunt with code PRODHUNT10
They make you follow them. Pause and it keeps scrolling. Go off-script and you’re suddenly lost on a screen. Worst of all, you end up sounding like you’re reading instead of speaking from the heart.
I thought, why can’t the prompter follow you?
So I built Tellie.
People don't want to read a script, they want to tell a story. They skip sentences. Rearrange things. Go off script. Say the same idea in completely different words.
Tellie listens (on-device) to the actual words you’re saying and follows you. Pause, skip, ad-lib, say it your way. Tellie keeps up. With 1.5's new Stagehand feature, it now understands what you’re trying to accomplish, even when you use your own words.
Tellie can tell you:
You’re missing an important point
You’re running long
You covered the things you needed to cover
You finished the take but skipped something
You went off script… and that’s probably okay
Every teleprompter answers one question: where am I in the script? Tellie answers it by following the words you actually speak, and knows what you still need to say. That's why I call it an unprompter.
It's only 3 MB. Completely local. Your voice never leaves your Mac. Invisible to Zoom and screen recorders.
Tellie 1.5 is $19 today with code PRODHUNT10 (normally $29). One-time purchase, never a subscription. Each download comes with 10 days free.
If you make videos, pitch, teach, interview, or just need to sound like yourself instead of a script, try it.
And if you need a feature I haven’t thought of yet, tell me. That’s how most of the good stuff got built.

I hate teleprompters.
Not the idea. The experience.
They make you follow them. Pause and it keeps scrolling. Go off-script and you’re suddenly lost on a screen. Worst of all, you end up sounding like you’re reading instead of speaking from the heart.
