Features
Everything you need. Nothing you don't.
Voice-driven
Local Whisper transcription paces the prompter to your voice — pause, slow down, jump back, it follows.
- · Word-perfect tracking, even on repeated words
- · Hallucination filter strips background-noise drift
- · Tiny / Base / Small / Medium models, or load your own
- · Manual mode if you'd rather scroll at a fixed speed
Designed for camera
Sits where your eyes already are — under the notch — so you stop reading sideways and start sounding natural.
- · Notch dock or floating pendant — drag anywhere
- · Mirror flip for beam-splitter rigs
- · Pause on hover — no buttons mid-take
- · 12 languages plus auto-detect
Built to disappear
Floats above every window and stays invisible to anyone watching your shared screen. Nobody sees Mootch but you.
- · Hidden from Zoom, Meet, Teams, Webex, OBS
- · Multi-monitor — pick the display, follow your plugs
- · 100% offline — voice and script never leave your Mac
- · Resize width, height, fonts, opacity to taste
Smoother. Smarter. On every screen.
- Multi-monitor support. Choose the display Mootch lives on; it follows your screen plugs.
- Word-perfect tracking. A new alignment engine fixes drift on repeated words and tricky phrasing.
- Polished dock animation. The dock/undock transition is now perfectly synced with the pendant shape morph.
FAQ
Quick answers.
Is Mootch really free?
Yes. Free on the Mac App Store with no in-app purchases, no subscriptions, no upsells. If you want to support development, there's a donate link, but it's never required.
Does my voice get sent to the cloud?
Never. Mootch transcribes locally with whisper.cpp. Your microphone audio and your script never leave your Mac. You can airplane-mode the whole machine and it still works.
Will my audience see Mootch on Zoom or Meet?
No. Mootch sets a "hidden from screen capture" flag, so when you share your screen on Zoom, Meet, Teams, Webex, OBS, or QuickTime, the prompter is invisible to everyone but you.
Will the AI slow my Mac down?
The default Tiny model is built for live use and barely shows up in Activity Monitor. If you want maximum accuracy, you can switch to a larger model — but most people stay on Tiny.
Do I have to talk for it to scroll?
No. Manual mode scrolls at a fixed speed you control. Voice activation starts/pauses when you speak. Smart mode follows your words. Pick whichever fits the moment.
What do I need to run it?
macOS 14.0 or later, on Apple Silicon or Intel. Hardware-accelerated where possible. The whole app is a small download from the Mac App Store.
