Teleprompter use case

Teleprompter for Speeches

Wedding toast, keynote, award acceptance or eulogy — a teleprompter means you deliver every word you wrote, looking up at the people who matter instead of down at a shaking sheet of paper.

Ideal pace
110–130 wpm
Script length
A 5-minute speech is roughly 550–700 spoken words.

Tips for speeches

  1. Go slower than feels natural — emotion and big rooms both eat clarity.
  2. Write for the ear: rhythm, repetition, short punchy lines.
  3. Mark the moments to pause for laughter or applause.
  4. Time it twice — nerves can swing your pace by 20%.
