Confidant digs into what your competitors post, writes your scripts in your voice, then scrolls them as you talk and records the take. One app, in your browser or on your Mac, from idea to posted video, for lawyers, contractors and owners who know their business cold and freeze when the camera turns on.
Other teleprompters start when you already have a script. Confidant starts before that.
Name your competitors or your niche and city. Confidant builds the research brief, Claude digs through their ads, funnels and reviews, and the findings land in your Brain.
A short interview, your website and your notes become a Brain that knows your offer, your clients and how you talk.
Hooks, short videos, ads and a full week of content, written from your Brain and aimed at the gaps your competitors leave open.
The script scrolls as you talk and the camera records behind it. Mark the take and the next script loads.
Everything below is the real app. No mockups.
Examples of the short, plain scripts Confidant writes once it knows your business. Yours will use your own offer, city and clients.
Most business owners don't need to become creators. They need to record ten clear videos without staring at a script, losing their place, or starting over.

No card to start. When the trial ends you drop to Free and keep your scripts. Upgrade whenever you want the studio back.
The AI features use your own Claude or OpenAI API key, so your writing goes straight to that provider and the usage cost is theirs, usually a few cents a script. Prices in USD. 14-day refund on your first payment.
No. Open the app, enter your email, and Pro is on for 14 days. If you don't add a card, you move to Free on day 15 and keep everything you made.
On your Mac. Scripts, recordings and your Brain live in the app on your computer. Our server only knows your email and your plan.
The writing features run on Claude or OpenAI with your key, so nothing you write passes through us and you only pay the provider for what you use. The setup screen walks you through getting a key in about two minutes.
Yes. Pick any USB or built-in mic and camera inside the app. Virtual audio devices like BlackHole are skipped, because the voice listener needs a real microphone.
The teleprompter itself is free, forever. Pro pays for the parts that keep working for you every week: the script writer, your Brain, competitor research and recording. If you only want a teleprompter, stay on Free.
Not with AI. Eyeline mode keeps the line you're reading right under the camera, and notch mode puts it just below the MacBook camera, so your eyes stay close to the lens while you read.
Not yet. Confidant is for macOS on Apple Silicon and Intel Macs.
Click Billing in the app's sidebar to open the Stripe portal, then cancel. You keep Pro until the end of the period you paid for.
Free to start. Pro is on for your first 14 days.
