Everything you need to produce
professional video content

GoTelePrompt tools are designed to work together — from scripting to recording to delivery.

Questions creators actually ask

Yes. There are no hidden fees, no “free trial” limits, and no premium tier that locks the features you actually need. Record, download, done. Free.
Nothing. No extension, no plugin, no desktop app. The recorder runs entirely in your browser tab using standard Web APIs that all modern browsers support.
Your recording downloads as a WebM or MP4 file depending on your browser — both are fully compatible with YouTube, DaVinci Resolve, Premiere Pro, and every other editing tool.
Yes. When you click record, your browser will show a picker that lets you choose your entire screen, a specific application window, or just a single browser tab — your choice.
No. Everything stays local in your browser. Your video is never uploaded to our servers — it goes directly from your browser to your device when you stop recording. We never see it.
Yes — and Linux too. Because it’s browser-based, it works on any operating system. Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge are all supported.
Absolutely. Open the GoTelePrompt teleprompter in one tab and the screen recorder in another. Many creators record their screen while reading from the prompter for perfectly scripted walkthroughs.
