EasyPrompter has been a go-to free web teleprompter for years. You paste your text, it scrolls, and it works in the browser. If that's all you need, it does the job.

DocPrompter covers the same basics — browser-based, free to start — and adds the parts that make recording smoother: scrolling that follows your voice, reading straight from Google Docs, and sending a script to the device by your camera.

Key takeaways

  • Both run in the browser and are free to start.
  • DocPrompter adds **voice-follow** — the text waits when you pause instead of scrolling at a fixed speed.
  • Read from a **Google Docs link** with live sync on Pro, not just pasted text.
  • **Send-to-device** opens your script on a phone or tablet that doesn't need to log in.

The big difference: voice-follow

A fixed-speed scroll means you're always adjusting to the machine — speeding up to catch the text or waiting for it to reach you. Voice-follow flips that around. Speech recognition keeps the line you're saying at the eye-line and pauses when you pause, so you read at your own pace. It works in Chrome, Edge, and iOS Safari 16.4+.

Keep your script in Google Docs

Instead of pasting text every time you edit, paste a Google Docs link once. On Pro, edits you make in the Doc sync into the prompter and keep your place. Prefer plain text? You can still paste it in.

Pro tip: Recording on your phone? DocPrompter installs to your home screen for a tab-free fullscreen prompter, and a screen wake-lock keeps the display awake mid-take.

Features on other tools change over time, so it's worth checking each site for what's current. The honest summary: if you want a bare-bones paste-and-scroll prompter, EasyPrompter is fine — if you want voice-follow and a Google Docs workflow, that's where DocPrompter is built differently.

Frequently asked questions

Is DocPrompter free like EasyPrompter?+

Yes, there's a free plan with unlimited prompting, voice-follow, and every control. The only limit is saving one script at a time; Pro ($12/mo) adds 25 scripts and live Google Docs sync.

What does DocPrompter do that EasyPrompter doesn't?+

Voice-follow scrolling that paces to your speech, reading from a Google Docs link with live sync on Pro, and send-to-device so a phone or tablet can open your script without logging in.

Do I have to install anything?+

No. Like EasyPrompter, DocPrompter runs in your browser. On a phone you can optionally Add to Home Screen for a fullscreen app, but there's no download.

Can I still just paste plain text?+

Yes. You can paste raw text, or paste a Google Docs link to read straight from the Doc.
