Script behind your face. Eyes on camera. No one sees it.
The Zoom background teleprompter is syncedcue's most powerful feature for remote professionals. Your script renders as a virtual background overlay — you read it while looking directly into the lens. Meeting participants see your background, not your notes. You look prepared, not scripted.
This works with Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, and any platform that supports virtual backgrounds. Your script floats behind your face on camera. Pair it with remote scroll control so a colleague can advance your script while you present.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about this use case.
How does the Zoom background teleprompter work?
syncedcue renders your script as a virtual background overlay. In Zoom's camera settings, select the syncedcue window as your virtual background. Your script is visible in your monitor but appears as a background to participants.
Can participants in the Zoom meeting see my teleprompter script?
No. The virtual background layer shows your script on your monitor but Zoom participants see your background — not the text of your script.
Does the Zoom background teleprompter work with Microsoft Teams?
Yes — any video conferencing platform that supports custom virtual backgrounds works with syncedcue's background teleprompter mode, including Teams, Google Meet, and Webex.
Can someone remotely control my teleprompter scroll during a Zoom call?
Yes — QR code sync lets a colleague connect on your local network and control your scroll speed remotely, or send you live cue messages during the presentation.
