TeacherPalette — The presenter I needed
Draw live, explain clearly, and keep your ideas flowing.
I wanted a presentation toolkit I could quickly open and use anywhere on my Mac. Something with the tools I need, but also a way to save and reuse what I draw. Most alternatives I found either focused on annotation or required a cloud-based workspace. So I built TeacherPalette. Draw on any screen, guide attention, move to a multi-page whiteboard, bring in PDFs, and save your work for later. No accounts or cloud required. Just open it and start explaining.
If you already use a presentation or annotation tool but sometimes feel like something is missing, I’d love for you to try TeacherPalette and compare it with what you use today.
And if you’ve felt the need for something like this but have never actually tried one before, please give it a try too.
I’d genuinely love to hear what you think after using it. 🙂
I’m Kim, the solo developer behind TeacherPalette.
In my day job, I’m a technical instructor, so I spend a lot of time explaining things on screen, from code walkthroughs and demos to presentations and classes.
I built TeacherPalette because I kept running into the same frustrations.
I often explain the same concepts more than once, but I had to redraw everything from scratch each time. Switching between annotation tools, whiteboards, and materials also broke my flow.
I also wanted presentation tools that looked a little more polished and were designed around how I actually present. For example, I wanted a rectangular magnifier that could enlarge a small section of a document while keeping the surrounding context visible. Small things like that make a big difference when you’re explaining something live.
What I really wanted was my own lightweight presentation toolkit. Something I could quickly open anywhere on my Mac, use while I explain, and come back to later. No account to manage and no cloud workspace to depend on.
I couldn’t find exactly what I wanted, so I built it myself.
With TeacherPalette, you can draw directly on any screen, guide attention with polished visual effects, move to a multi-page whiteboard when you need more space, bring in PDFs, and save your whiteboard so you don’t have to start from scratch next time.
What started as a tool for myself is already being used by fellow instructors and sales consultants in real classes, customer demos, and presentations.
But TeacherPalette isn’t just for teaching.
Teach. Demo. Present. Create. If you explain things on a screen, I’d love for you to try it.
I’d love to hear how you explain things on screen today, and what gets in your way.
Thanks for checking it out! 🙏
