Transparent notes and teleprompter

Keep your words in sight.

Keep a transparent note beside a video call, read a script over your source material, or carry the same words into a focused mobile Prompt. LucentNote stays useful without becoming the whole screen.

Designed for

Local-first on each device

Made for real moments

Your words stay where your attention already is.

Work on the device already in front of you, with a transparent Mac workspace and a focused Prompt on iPhone or iPad.

Meetings

Keep your talking points above the call.

Keep an agenda, names or questions beside a sales call, interview or team meeting. Adjust opacity until the note is readable without hiding the people and work underneath it.

Recording

Look at the camera, not down at a script.

Keep your eyes near the camera during a product demo, lesson, interview or social video. Choose automatic motion or let the angle of the device control the scroll.

Study and research

Read the note with the source still in view.

Place your words over a website, PDF or photo. Hide the controls when you need space, then continue scrolling and interacting with the reference underneath.

Presenting

Build a readable cue for any distance.

Use iPhone or iPad as a cue beside a lectern, camera or display. Set large type, tune the speed, mirror the view and use line focus to keep your place.

Transparent notes on Mac

A note above your work, only as visible as you want it.

Pin the LucentNote workspace above other windows and choose any opacity from 0 to 100 percent. Collapse the library when you want a single clean note, then bring it back to search, favorite or revisit earlier work.

  • Always-on-top pin with a visible toolbar control
  • Independent note accent and window background colors
  • Collapsible library with search, favorites and archive
  • Local autosave and Markdown export

A calmer notes app

Write quickly. Find it later. Keep it visible when it matters.

LucentNote starts with a focused editor, then gets out of the way. Your first line becomes the title automatically, formatting stays close to the text, and every change saves locally.

01

A real editor, without a document-sized interface

Bold, italic, underline, strikethrough, selected-text color, font sizes up to 400 points, and continuing bullet or numbered lists are available on your free note.

02

Transparent where it helps

The Mac workspace can stay above other apps and move from fully opaque to fully transparent. Pinning and transparency remain free.

03

A focused experience on Mac and mobile

Use a transparent workspace on Mac and a purpose-built Prompt on iPhone or iPad. The current release stores an independent local library on each device.

04

History that respects the original

Pro keeps earlier versions ready to preview and restore. Notes are never deleted when Pro expires, and locked notes remain readable and exportable.

Prompt on iPhone and iPad

Read naturally, at your pace.

The note you prepared becomes a full-screen teleprompter for a meeting, presentation, lesson, interview or recording. Start, pause, restart, change speed, choose Auto or Tilt, and move or resize the note while paused. Hide the panel when the source matters more, then tap once to bring the controls back.

Backdrop
Color, interactive website, PDF, photo or live camera
Motion
Auto scroll or tilt-controlled reading
Layout
Strip, Card or Tall, with focus and mirror
Playback
Up to 7x speed, repeat on by default
Placement
Drag and pinch the note while playback is paused

Picture in Picture is included on the free note. Availability can vary by device and system settings.

LucentNote Prompt with scrolling note, playback, Picture in Picture, repeat and speed controls
One full-screen canvas for reading and every background source.

Choose what sits behind the note

Your source stays part of the task.

A single Prompt screen handles every backdrop. The note remains readable while the material beneath it stays useful.

Web

Open a page in a private browsing session. Hide the Prompt controls to scroll, follow links and work with the site behind your note.

PDF

Keep a brief, paper or slide deck on screen while your own cue stays above it. Oversized imports are rejected before display.

Photo

Use an image as context for a lesson, product walkthrough or visual explanation. Imported photo data is temporary and size limited.

Camera

Read over a live camera view when framing matters. LucentNote asks for camera access only after you choose this source.

Picture in Picture

Start PiP with a deliberate tap and keep the rendered Prompt visible above other apps where Apple supports it.

Private by construction

Your notes stay under your control.

Secure when you choose. Secure Notes adds local encryption and device authentication. With it off, LucentNote leaves Keychain alone.

Local-first today. The current release stores notes on the device and does not require a LucentNote username or password.

No advertising profile. LucentNote does not follow you around the web or build a profile from the way you write.

Questions, answered

Before you download.

Does the welcome note use the free allowance?

Yes. A fresh install begins with one editable welcome note, and that is the single free note. You can replace its text and use every editor and Prompt control. Creating a second note requires Pro.

Will my notes sync between Mac and iPhone?

Not yet. The current release keeps a separate local library on each device. iCloud sync is planned for a future Pro update.

What happens if Pro ends?

No note is deleted or hidden. The most recently edited user note remains editable, and additional notes stay readable and exportable in read-only mode.

Does LucentNote need an account?

No extra account or password is needed. Downloads, subscriptions and billing are managed securely by Apple.

Can a note stay above another app?

Yes. On Mac, pin the workspace above other windows and adjust its transparency. On iPhone and iPad, use Picture in Picture to keep Prompt visible while you move to another app.

Which sources can sit behind a Prompt note?

Choose a color, interactive website, PDF, photo or live camera view. The source is opened for that Prompt session and is not added to the note itself.
