Write your script on a laptop, read it off a phone or tablet, and edit it while you are still reading. Runs in any browser. No signup, no install, no watermark, no time limit dressed up as a trial.
Almost every free teleprompter asks you to paste your script into the same machine you are reading from. That is fine until the screen you want to read from is a phone clipped above a camera, or a tablet on a stand, or a spare laptop across the room. Then you are typing a speech on a phone keyboard.
textPortal splits the two. The script lives on whatever device is comfortable to type on. The teleprompter runs on whatever screen is comfortable to read from. They stay in sync as you type, so a last-minute change on the laptop appears on the phone immediately, mid-read.
The reading device needs no account, no app and no pairing. It opens a URL.
Speed, size and mirroring are remembered on the reading device, so the next session starts where you left it.
A key is not limited to one reader. The same key opens on as many devices as you like, so a co-host can read the same script from their own phone. Everyone sees edits at the same time, and nobody signs up.
Scripts up to 25,000 characters, which is roughly 4,400 words or about a 25 minute talk at speaking pace. Sessions run from 1 to 60 minutes and can be extended while running. It is free, there is no paid tier, and no feature is held back.
Yes, entirely. There is no paid tier, no trial, no watermark and no export fee. textPortal is free to use and no feature is held back.
No, on either device. You can write a script, click the ⇅ share button to share it and read it from a second screen without signing up for anything. An optional free account exists only if you want to save scripts between sessions.
Yes, in both directions. You can write on a laptop and read from a phone, or write on a phone and read from a laptop or tablet. Whichever device is reading controls its own scroll speed, text size and mirroring, because that is where your eyes are.
Yes. Edits on the writing device appear on the reading device immediately, while the teleprompter is still scrolling. This is the main thing textPortal does that a paste-it-and-read teleprompter cannot.
Yes. There is a mirror mode that flips the text horizontally for reflection off prompter glass. Turn it on from the reading device.
No. Both sides run in an ordinary browser. Nothing to install, no extension, no helper agent, which means it also works on a locked-down machine where you cannot install software.
Up to 25,000 characters, roughly 4,400 words or about a 25 minute talk read aloud. Sessions last from 1 to 60 minutes and can be extended without restarting.
Only for as long as the session is alive. When the key expires the content is permanently deleted. There is no archive and no history, and we do not read, log or retain what you write.
Open textPortal, paste your script, click the ⇅ share button to share it, and open the key on whatever screen you want to read from.
