For presentations

Present to a camera like you would to a room.

Webinars, all-hands and remote talks with your notes beside the lens instead of on another screen.

Remote presenting splits your attention three ways.

Slides, speaker notes and the audience all compete for the same screen. The camera usually loses.

  • ✕Speaker notes sit far from the camera
  • ✕Slides pull your eyes to the centre
  • ✕Audiences read looking down as low energy

A steady, timed scroll suits prepared talks. Set a pace you rehearse at, and pause with ⌥⌘Space for questions.

How it works for Presentations.

  1. 01

    Paste your talk track

    Use your speaker notes or a full script. The estimated time helps you check length before you go live.

  2. 02

    Set the pace in rehearsal

    Run it once in Read mode and adjust speed until it matches how you speak.

  3. 03

    Present to the lens

    Your notes sit under the camera while slides are shared from a single window.

Tips that make the difference.

Rehearse with the timer

Cuey shows an estimated time remaining, so you'll know if a 20-minute slot holds a 26-minute talk.

Mark slide changes

Add a short line such as [NEXT SLIDE] to your notes so transitions don't catch you out.

Switch modes for Q&A

Use Notes mode for the Q&A with the answers to the questions you expect.

What you'll use

Adjustable Read speed

Read mode advances on its own at Slightly Fast, Fast or Extremely Fast. Change it mid-script from the prompt.

Time remaining

See roughly how long is left in your script as you speak.

Camera-first placement

Pin Cuey at the notch, under the camera, beside it, or float it anywhere.

Four sizes

Compact, Medium, Expanded, or a full-width bar across the top of the screen.

Keyboard shortcuts

Start, pause, hide and paste with shortcuts, or from the menu bar.

Notes mode

Talking points you step through yourself. Nothing moves until you do.

Questions, answered

Can I use Cuey with Keynote or PowerPoint?+

Yes. Cuey is a separate window, so it works alongside any presentation app. Share the slide window, and keep Cuey under the camera.

How do I know how long my talk is?+

Cuey shows an estimated time remaining based on your script. You can also paste the script into our free speaking time calculator.

What if someone interrupts with a question?+

Press ⌥⌘Space to pause. In Follow mode, Cuey simply waits until you're back on the script.

Say it to the camera.
Not to your notes.
