Branching

Real conversations
don't go in straight lines.

At every branch point, the HeyNotch shows up to four buttons. Tap one (or hit 14), and the script jumps to that branch and keeps scrolling. Branches return to the main flow when they end. No setup. Just markdown.

Why HeyNotch

Every detail, considered.

We built the teleprompter we wished existed for sales calls, investor pitches, and content shoots. Here's what makes it feel different.

Invisible to them, perfect for you

Script text sits directly above the camera. Your eyes never leave the lens — so they never notice.

Scripts that branch with the conversation

A cold call isn't linear. Tap a branch when they push back on price, go off-topic, or ask something you didn't plan for.

Personalise in seconds, not minutes

Global + per-script variables. Type the prospect's name once before the call — the rest fills itself.

Keyboard-first, always

Space to play. ] and [ to jump. Arrow keys for speed. Numbers for branches. Your hands never leave the keys.

Springy, native-Mac morphing

Idle is a tiny pill. Playing expands to a teleprompter. Choosing a branch grows the row of options. All in one flowing motion.

Session playback + branch timeline

Every run is logged with branch decisions, variable values, and notes — so you can see what worked and what didn't.

Local-first. Genuinely private.

No accounts. No telemetry. No cloud. Your scripts and session history never leave your machine.

Thirteen notch themes

Obsidian, Glass, Terminal, Amber, Sunset, Ocean, Forest, Rose, Cyberpunk, and more. Match your vibe.

Three steps. Then just talk.

Press play. Look at the lens.

The notch counts down, then your words scroll right above the camera. Branches react to the conversation.

Here's the 30-second version —

Built for

Anyone whose words matter on camera.

Sales

Close more deals on video.

Keep your talk track perfect while maintaining eye contact. Branches handle objections, pricing pushback, and unexpected questions.

Founders

Nail the investor pitch.

Investors ask hard questions. Have the right story ready — for the ideal path, and every detour along the way.

Podcasts

Never lose the thread.

Solo episodes, intros, interview prep. Scroll through your outline while looking directly at the camera.

Creators

Cut fewer takes.

Talking-head tutorials, course lessons, YouTube scripts. Stay on-brand without memorising a 2,000-word monologue.

Teachers

Deliver with confidence.

Online lectures and training sessions that stay consistent across cohorts. Stage directions keep tone and pacing intentional.

Interviews

Sound prepared, not scripted.

Your tell-me-about-yourself, your why-this-role, your questions for them — always within a glance of your eyes.

Loved by people who talk for a living

Less script. More presence.

"I closed a deal yesterday where I hit every talking point without breaking eye contact once. My prospect called it 'weirdly present.'"
