Teleprompters are awesome tools, but up until now they’ve also usually been complex nightmares to deal with. The Elgato Prompter solves all of these problems at an affordable price by combining a built in display, tons of camera compatibility, simple setup, and great software. Aside from using it for scripts and outlines, the Prompter is fantastic to use for things like reference monitoring and video calls. It's totally changed my video production workflow for the better!
