Confidant vs Notchie and CueNotch
Notchie and CueNotch put your script right under the MacBook camera, in the notch, and stay invisible when you share your screen. Confidant has a notch mode too, and adds a script studio, recording and a content board.
Short answer. Pick Notchie and CueNotch if you mostly present live on calls and need notes no one else can see. Pick Confidant if you make recorded videos for your business and need the scripts and the system around them.
