  • A Great Tool for YouTubers
Style: Prompter
I purchased the Elgato Prompter to replace my Padcaster Parrot teleprompter (which runs from your phone or tablet). The Elgato is much larger, the font is much more crisp, and it's easier to see. I'm glad I had the Padcaster Parrot first because (1) the Padcaster is easier to set up and use; and (2) I knew which settings I'd need to look for on the Elgato based on my experience with the Padcaster. The software you download to run the Prompter is free to download AND you don't have to create an account with Elgato to download and use that software. The Prompter's software appears to work with any computer and any level of operating system. I have an older Mac which is perfect for running the Prompter. (Since it's an older Mac, the highest level of OS for it is Ventura 13.7.8, which works fine with the Elgato Prompter software.) Fortunately, I had the same set of Lens Mounting Rings from the Padcaster as were sent with the Elgato Prompter. They look identical. But when I attached the Elgato's mounting ring for my 50mm lens to the camera and slipped on the Prompter, the entire ring would come off the lens. Weird! So I attached the Padcaster's mounting ring back onto the 50mm lens (again!), that ring stays in place, and the Elgato fits on it (as it should). There must be something wrong with the same size ring I received from Elgato. To the naked eye, both rings look identical. But one stays on the camera (the one from Padcaster) and the other falls off (the one from Elgato). That said, I removed one star because a few days ago when I set up to film, everything was fine. In fact, it was my second filming in an hour. Halfway through filming, the pace of the teleprompter was suddenly super slow. I hadn't changed the settings. So how did the pace change? I have no idea. After I set everything up after purchasing it, I thought all of my settings were "set". I don't expect those settings to change on their own. But at least one setting did. And I hadn't written down what my preferred settings were, so I had to guess and scramble through the settings, hoping I didn't start sweating profusely and mess up my entire filming episode. I don't like negative surprises. The Prompter is easy to use without the foot pedal (the Elgato Stream Deck Pedal). Nevertheless, I purchased the foot pedal and put off setting it up (too busy!). When I finally did start working with the foot pedal, I found out the hard way that (1) downloading the foot pedal's software requires you to create an account with Elgato; and (2) running the foot pedal's software on a Mac requires a later version of the Mac's OS than Ventura. Surprise! Even after back-&-forth emails with Elgato Support, I cannot use the foot pedal at all. ... show more

  • Elgato Prompter & Stream Deck Plus: The Perfect Video Production Duo
Style: Prompter
As someone who regularly produces technical demonstration videos, I’ve tested a lot of gear to streamline my workflow. The Elgato Prompter, combined with the Elgato Stream Deck Plus, is by far one of the best setups for at-home video production. This dynamic duo makes it incredibly easy to stay on topic, control your recordings, and maintain a professional on-camera presence—whether you’re filming tutorials, live streaming, or even participating in Zoom calls. Elgato Prompter: A Game-Changer for Video Production The Elgato Prompter delivers everything you’d want in a teleprompter, but with added functionality that makes it stand out. The ability to adjust dialogue speed, reverse and forward text, and seamlessly switch between prompter and display mode makes reading scripts effortless. It’s also compact yet highly effective as a secondary monitor, giving you additional flexibility during video production. One of the most underrated benefits of this prompter is its pseudo eye-contact feature for video calls. If you’re frequently in Zoom meetings, having a script or notes displayed directly in front of the camera makes your presentations feel more natural and engaging. This small detail dramatically improves audience connection, whether you’re streaming, presenting, or teaching remotely. Stream Deck Plus: The Ultimate Control Center Pairing the Elgato Stream Deck Plus with the prompter takes production to another level. The customizable buttons allow you to start and stop recordings, switch modes, and control dialogue playback without touching your keyboard or mouse. Having dedicated physical controls for these actions eliminates unnecessary distractions and makes workflow smoother. For those using OBS, the native integrations are flawless, allowing for easy scene switching and transitions while keeping everything running seamlessly. And for Mac users, the compatibility is rock solid—no glitches, no lag, just instant responsiveness. Final Verdict: A Five-Star Setup The Elgato Prompter and Stream Deck Plus combo is hands-down one of the best investments for anyone serious about video production. Whether you’re a content creator, educator, or someone producing mid-level AV content, this setup makes staying on topic effortless, enhances production quality, and improves audience engagement. The combination of script control, seamless device integration, and multi-functional display features makes this a must-have for at-home creators. ⭐ Rating: 5/5 – Highly Recommended! ⭐ ... show more

  • Top quality
Style: Prompter
You will be very pleased with this tele prompter. I wondered if El gato was just a brand but they do make the highest quality product. With this product you can use the screen as an extra small screen when not used as a teleprompter too. I also use their camlink hardware. Very pleased.

  • It does not work very well at all.
Style: Prompter
This is the worst failure at executing an otherwise great concept I have ever seen in my life and I have seen a few. The problem does not lie in the hardware. It's super well designed, versatile. It just works. The problem is the elgato Camerahub garbage piece of pathetic software from hell. (There are no better polite words to describe how broken it is) It started by not being able to see the prompter at all on my macbook pro. After hours of troubleshooting, the offered solution by elgato: 'oh we know, it's a bug, just downgrade to the previous version.' Then the voicesync feature randomly stopped working in the middle of takes. Offered solution by elgato: 'Just upgrade to the latest version'. For. Real. Make you selection at any time: 1/ press one to not be able to use the product for what you bought it for. 2/ press two to not be able to use the product for what you bought it for. Your choice. At this point there is nothing I can do to get this work properly. It will show up in the app if I plug everything in in the exact right order and mercury is not in retrograde. And it will, maybe, follow a voice reading the script for a couple paragraph before it will get stuck and require a restart. (I tried several mics and systems and several humans talking into it) It WILL work in contant scroll mode if it get seen by the computer that day. So there is that. Also don't plan using this as a second screen when shooting through it because the brightness required creates a halo on the picture. It's fine for prompting and could work for direct 'I'm really looking at you' video conferencing if you don't mind the halo and you're ok looking at a super contrasty weird picture of the person you are talking to. I think these are more limitations of the laws of physics than Elgato's fault. Summary: great hardware. dreadful software that feels like an unfinished buggy beta afterthought that will cause tears and grief until someone on the elgato software team decides to pay attention to it. Dusting off my old ipad + mirror system and giving this thing to someone I don't like. Cheers Fab ... show more

  • This changed the way I do video
Style: Prompter
I've been doing video and podcast work for a while, and I've used traditional teleprompters before. I bought the Elgato Prompter because I wanted something that would integrate cleanly with my computer and camera setup instead of adding another complicated piece of equipment. And once I got everything working, I have to say, this thing is really good. The built-in screen is the big difference. I'm not trying to balance a phone or tablet somewhere behind the glass, and I'm not trying to read a script off another monitor. The script is right where I need it to be, directly in front of the camera. I'm using it with an Elgato Facecam 4K, and the combination is excellent. The camera sits right where it needs to be, and the Prompter lets me actually look into the camera while reading. For interviews, that is going to be especially useful because I can keep my eyes toward the guest/camera instead of constantly looking off to the side at notes. The integration with Elgato's software is another big plus. Once you have everything connected and configured, it feels like part of the production setup rather than some accessory you've bolted onto it. I also added a Stream Deck Neo to the setup, which gives me control over the teleprompter without having to reach over to the computer. Being able to pause and start the script from the desk sounds like a small thing until you're actually recording. Then you realize how useful it is. Now, I do want to be honest about something. My experience with the hardware wasn't perfect. My first Prompter developed a problem where the screen would come on with the Elgato logo and then go black. The Mac wasn't seeing it as a display, and I went through the usual troubleshooting; different ports, cables, software, etc. I eventually had to deal with a replacement. The replacement experience wasn't exactly pretty either. It arrived with some packaging issues and missing/damaged pieces. Amazon and I had a conversation about that one. 😂 Fortunately, I was eventually able to get everything sorted out. But here's the important part: once I had a properly working unit, the Prompter itself has been excellent. And that's why I'm still giving it five stars. I'm not going to pretend my experience was flawless just because I'm reviewing a product I like. It wasn't. But the actual product has become an important part of my video setup, and I would buy it again. If you're creating videos, recording podcasts, doing interviews, or simply want to stop staring at notes off to the side while you're talking to a camera, this is one of those pieces of equipment that can make a surprisingly big difference. It's not cheap at full price, so I'd definitely watch for a sale. But if you can get it at a good price, I think it's worth it. For me, the real test is pretty simple: I have a working Prompter sitting on my desk now, and I use it. That's about as good an endorsement as I can give it. ... show more

  • Great teleprompter for some people, but not for my setup.
Style: Prompter
I compared this to other teleprompters, such as the Small Rig offering and a brand called Moman here on Amazon. My requirements were: 1. Something that was sturdy enough to hold my mirrorless camera (Lumix S5ii) 2. Something fast to setup in each recording session and 3. To easily interface with my Mac. Bonus: I could use it for client shoots away from my desk. Though I can tell the Prompter is a good fit for people who aren’t too technical and aren’t working with a pro mirrorless camera, it was not a good fit for me. I would not trust the plastic shelf to hold my camera and the lens attachment seemed both a bit too cumbersome to setup each time, as well as a little nerve-racking to have hanging off my lens. Finally, the built-in screen was a good idea but the way it connects to the Mac makes it difficult for my setup. It needs to interface via USB, but not through a USB hub, which means I have to physically connect it each time to my laptop (something I avoid with all peripherals) and it requires special drivers/software. This is to provide extra functionality via baked in teleprompter software, but for my purposes, I would have preferred a vanilla monitor that interfaced via HDMI on which I could run separate software. If we’re going to have to install separate software any way, the only benefit to Prompter’s setup is you don’t have to move that software to the its screen each session (vs. if it were connected via HDMI as an extra monitor). That’s not much of a benefit to me. I’d prefer the flexibility of setup. I settled on the Moman because it is incredibly sturdy, can support my 12.9” iPad, which already works as an extra monitor natively with Mac, and can even be used on client shoots. With the Falcam quick release attachment, I can place my camera on it lickity split. All for less than half the cost. I did need a bit of extra black fabric to cover some light leakage but that was a small price to pay to hit all 3 requirements plus the bonus requirement. Still giving 4 stars because I can tell it is a good fit for some people and, as a Stream Deck user, I can imagine it would still meet Elgato’s customer experience for them. ... show more

  • Excellent Teleprompter — Just Verify Voice Tracking Compatibility

I was a little disappointed to learn that the voice-tracking movement feature only works with certain Mac systems. That limitation wasn’t immediately clear to me. That said, as a teleprompter, it performs really well. It’s super lightweight, the glass is clear, and setup is straightforward. It also doubles nicely as an extra monitor, which adds a lot of flexibility to my workflow. Overall, aside from the compatibility limitation, it does exactly what it’s designed to do. ... show more
