Look and sound great on camera with an online teleprompter

Kapwing is an all-in-one video editing platform with a built-in teleprompter app for creators to record taking head videos smoothly with little to no mess-ups.

Change the scrolling speed and text size

While speaker-activated teleprompter apps can stop mid-sentence due to the distance of the speaker, this teleprompter automatically scrolls for you to read along. Now’s your time to look and sound natural in front of the camera.

Click and drag the online teleprompter

Unlike other online teleprompter apps, Kapwing’s gives you full control over the scrolling speed, text size, and the position of the teleprompter. This makes recording a talking head video while maintaining eye contact with the camera 10x easier.

Best online video service ever. And a miracle for deaf people.
[Subtitler] is able to autogenerate subtitles for video in almost any language. I'm deaf (or almost deaf, to be correct) and thanks to Kapwing I'm now able understand and react on videos from my friends :)

By the far the most user friendly software to use.
As a housewife at home looking to start a YouTube channel for fun with absolutely zero editing experience, it was so easy for me to teach myself via their YouTube channel. It takes the tediousness out of editing and encourages creativity. As long as Kapwing is around, I will be using their software.

Love this site.
As an English Foreign Language Teacher, this site helps me to quickly subtitle interesting videos that I can use in class. The students love the videos, and the subtitles really help them to learn new vocabulary as well as better understand and follow the video.

Excellent subtitling features
[It] works perfectly for me. Have been using Kapwing for a year or so, and their automatic subtitle tool gets better and better every week, it's rare that I have to correct a word. Keep up the good work!
