Notchie is a teleprompter application designed specifically for Mac computers that utilizes the notch area below the camera. Its main purpose is to help users read scripts and notes during video calls and presentations while maintaining natural eye contact with their audience. The application positions text directly next to the camera lens, enabling users to appear as though they are speaking naturally without reading from notes.

Key features include voice-activated scrolling that follows your speaking pace, with text moving as you speak and pausing when you pause. The application offers two modes: voice-sync scrolling and classic auto-scroll mode with adjustable speed. It includes hover-to-pause functionality where moving your mouse over the text instantly freezes scrolling. Users can control scrolling speed using keyboard shortcuts (Shift + ←/→ to speed up/slow down) and adjust the teleprompter window size, font size, and background opacity.

The application works by occupying the dead space of your Mac's notch area, utilizing screen real estate that typically goes unused. It uses a native macOS overlay level that is ignored by screen capture APIs, making it completely invisible during screen sharing on platforms like Zoom, Teams, Meet, and OBS. The text scrolls automatically based on your voice or preset speed, and you can pause instantly by hovering over the text.

Benefits include maintaining perfect eye contact during presentations, delivering scripts flawlessly without appearing to read, and reducing the need for multiple takes when recording content. Use cases include sales calls where you can have value props and closing lines ready, webinars where you need to hit every talking point, job interviews with prepared stories and negotiation points, tutorial creation with reduced retakes, and client presentations where credibility is crucial.

The product targets professionals who regularly participate in video calls and presentations, including sales managers, founders, YouTube creators, course creators, and remote workers. It integrates with popular video conferencing platforms and screen sharing applications without requiring accounts or internet connectivity since it operates 100% locally on your Mac. The application supports macOS 14+ on both Apple Silicon and Intel processors.
