What are you using to keep a recruiting keynote crisp without losing warmth? I’ve been running a Shure MV7, a Logitech R500, and PromptSmart Pro on an iPad mini for a 25-minute deck, and I’m testing a StreamYard + LinkedIn Live setup to turn Q&A clips into brand moments, but I’m still hunting a clean slide/timer overlay that lets me glance, breathe, and stay present — what’s your go-to? Every stage is a chance to build trust in your personal brand; the right tool should disappear so your message doesn’t.
I stopped using teleprompter apps and just run https://stagetimer.io in a tiny always-on-top window over my deck, then share only the Keynote/PowerPoint window in StreamYard so the timer’s invisible to the audience but easy to glance at. Only caveat: it’s smoothest on Mac with a pin-on-top helper like Rectangle Pro; are you on Mac or Windows?
And route presenter view to your iPad via Sidecar/Duet and choose the Keynote/PowerPoint layout with the “big timer + next slide,” then share only the deck window in StreamYard so your overlay stays private — a teleprompter without the guilt. Small caveat: plug the iPad in over USB‑C so it never hiccups. Want the Keynote layout doc?
