Can I use a teleprompter with Loom without it appearing in the recording?

Yes — Avocado is excluded from all screen and window captures at the macOS WindowServer level, which includes Loom's screen recorder. Your script scrolls in the notch above the camera while your Loom recording captures only your face and screen content.

How do I make Loom videos without lots of retakes?

Most Loom retakes happen when you lose your place or forget a point mid-recording. Avocado keeps your key points or full script visible in the notch above the camera, and voice-activated scrolling advances the text as you speak — reducing hesitation and the need to restart.

What's the best way to record polished Loom walkthroughs?

Write your walkthrough script or outline in Avocado, arrange your screen for the Loom recording, then start both simultaneously. Because Avocado is OS-level excluded, it doesn't appear in the Loom video. You can record a complete, confident walkthrough in one take rather than stitching together clips.

Does a teleprompter help with async video messages?

Async video messages like Loom are increasingly replacing emails in sales and team communication, where clear, concise delivery matters. Having your key points in Avocado means you stay on message without rambling, which keeps your videos short and professional without requiring heavy editing.

Yes. The core Avocado experience is completely free — no credit card, no time limit. Notch Mode, Floating Mode, Script Markers, Focus Guide, PowerPoint import, and classic constant-speed scrolling on scripts of any length are all included at no cost. Voice scrolling is free on scripts up to 200 words (~90 seconds), and you also get 3 Pro Passes every week to run full-Pro sessions on longer scripts.

What does Pro include?

Avocado Pro adds unlimited voice-activated and adaptive scrolling, AI Smart Cues, Director Mode (control from any device), Teleprompter Viewer, Auto-Naming, Auto-Tag suggestions, mouse scroll, hide controls, and Follow Mouse across monitors. Monthly and yearly plans available.

Does the prompter automatically scroll as I read?

Yes. Avocado uses on-device Apple speech recognition to scroll the script precisely as you speak and pause when you stop — no cloud, no latency. It learns your natural reading pace in real time so you never need to touch a slider. Voice-activated scrolling is free to try on scripts up to 200 words (~90 seconds of talking); Avocado Pro removes that limit entirely.

I don't have a MacBook notch. Can I still use it?

Yes. While Notch mode is designed to blend into the MacBook camera notch for perfect eye contact, Floating mode lets you drag and resize the prompter window anywhere on screen. It works great on external monitors, studio displays, and older Macs without a notch.

Can I use it for solo video recording, not just calls?

Absolutely — Avocado is built for any on-camera moment. Solo YouTube videos, course recordings, Loom walkthroughs, podcast intros, audition tapes. Notch mode places your script directly below the lens so you maintain natural eye contact with the camera, and since Avocado is invisible to screen capture, it won't appear anywhere in your recording.

Does my script stay private?

Yes. Everything stays on your Mac. Voice recognition, AI Smart Cues, and your scripts are all processed on-device using Apple frameworks — no cloud uploads, no account required, and it works completely offline.

Will my audience see the script when I share my screen?

No. Avocado is completely invisible during screen shares and recordings. Whether you're on Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, recording a Loom walkthrough, or streaming through OBS, your teleprompter stays entirely hidden — it won't appear in screenshots or video captures either.

Does it work with PowerPoint or slide decks?

Yes. Drop any .pptx file directly into Avocado and it instantly extracts your presenter notes as a ready-to-read script. Each slide is automatically bookmarked with a Script Marker so you can jump between sections from the sidebar. It's a free feature — no Pro license needed.

Read why Avocado works for Loom

Asynchronous work is taking over the business world, and Loom is leading the charge. But recording a Loom video where you constantly gaze off-screen or ramble and say 'umm' wastes your team's time. Avocado is the decisive teleprompter for Loom. Pin your script directly under the Apple webcam notch, click record on Loom, and deliver a pristine, 1-take update. Because you appear to be looking directly at the viewer the entire time, you project massive executive presence and sales confidence, cutting down entirely on re-takes.
