Why YouTube creators use ScrollCue
Most teleprompter tools make you choose between natural delivery and production efficiency. ScrollCue gives you both — voice scroll adapts to your pace automatically so you never sound like you're reading, and built-in recording means you capture camera and script in a single browser tab with no OBS, no screen recorder, no extra setup.

The typical YouTube workflow with ScrollCue
Write your script
Paste it directly into ScrollCue. Use the section tool to mark chapter breaks — you can jump to any section mid-take without losing your place.
Rehearse with ORP mode
Before filming, run through the script with ORP speed-read to internalize phrasing and timing. Most creators do one or two ORP passes before their first take. (Pro)
Film with voice scroll on
Enable voice scroll, hit record, and start speaking. The script follows your pace — faster when you speed up, stopped when you pause for effect. No button presses mid-take.
Review and retake
Takes are saved automatically with timestamps and file sizes. Download the best one directly to your device. No upload, no processing, no cloud.
How it compares to recording with OBS
OBS is powerful but adds significant overhead to a solo creator workflow: scene setup, audio routing, separate recording management. For single-camera talking-head YouTube videos, ScrollCue Pro eliminates every step between "script ready" and "take downloaded". You open one tab, record, and leave.
The Day Pass at $4.99 is designed for exactly this: you have a video to record this week, you want recording and voice scroll, and you don't need a subscription. One day, full Pro, done.
