CueCard

CueCard is an open-source tool designed to keep speaker notes visible only to the presenter during screen sharing on platforms such as Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams. It addresses the challenge of discreetly accessing presentation notes without revealing them to meeting participants, making it suitable for various presentation, meeting, and teaching scenarios.

The tool allows users to either sync notes from Google Slides using a browser extension—available for Safari, Chrome, and Firefox—or manually type or paste notes directly into CueCard for any meeting. CueCard supports optional tagging, letting presenters add [time] tags to set session timing and [note] tags to guide delivery, such as reminders to smile or emphasize a point. The interface highlights timestamps and action cues, and includes an on-screen timer that counts down gently, helping presenters manage their pacing and delivery.

CueCard is delivered as both a desktop application and a mobile app. The mobile version is available on iOS, with an Android release planned, and features a floating teleprompter overlay that works over any app. The tool is designed to be undetectable during meetings, ensuring that notes remain hidden from screen shares when the appropriate settings are enabled. All notes and Google tokens are stored locally on the user's device, prioritizing privacy.

CueCard is completely free to use and distributed under the MIT open source license. Its features and accessibility make it suitable for a wide range of users, including coaches, consultants, educators, executives, fitness instructors, lawyers, realtors, sales professionals, students, trainers, webinar hosts, content creators, podcasters, streamers, vloggers, and YouTubers.
