About DemoPro - Screen Annotation
Draw on your screen, highlight your cursor, and draw attention to your content, not your tools. DemoPro is a menu bar app built for live presentations, demos, streaming, teaching, and content creation.
Designed with input from professional presenters, content creators, teachers, and solution engineers, DemoPro puts simplicity and impact above all else. No gimmicky effects, just the essential tools every presenter needs, each one a single keystroke away.
DemoPro stays out of the way. There is no visible interface to distract your audience or clutter your screen. Switch from presenting to annotating with the press of a hotkey, then switch right back to interacting with your apps. There's a customizable hotkey for every tool, every color, the cursor highlight, and even the timer, so your audience never sees you fumbling through toolbars or menus.
ANNOTATE INSTANTLY
โข No matter what's on your screen, just press a hotkey to activate the annotation tool of your choice (freehand, line, arrow, rectangle, ellipse, or text)
โข Draw over PowerPoint, Google Slides, Keynote, web pages, or even live video, while you present
โข Choose between two activation modes: hold the hotkey down to annotate, or press once to turn annotation mode on and again to turn it off
โข Switch between drawing and interacting in an instant: release the hotkey to click, scroll, and type in your apps while your annotations stay on screen
โข Clear annotations with a hotkey or let them vanish with Auto-Fade, like invisible ink
โข Works with Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, OBS Studio, and Loom
โข 5 customizable color presets
โข Choose your drawing indicator: a dot, a dot scaled to your line width, a crosshair, or the active tool's icon
โข Supports multiple screens
โข Can be controlled with a Stream Deck via hotkeys (see website to download the DemoPro icon pack)
โข Draw with your Apple Pencil and iPad (via Sidecar in mirror mode) or a drawing tablet
โข Optional pressure sensitivity
โข Double tap your Apple Pencil to switch to the eraser and back
HIGHLIGHT YOUR CURSOR
โข Turn on a highlight that follows your pointer so your audience never loses track of it
โข Choose from four styles: Ring, Disc, Laser Pointer, or Spotlight
โข Adjust the size, color, and opacity of each style independently
โข Optionally add a ripple animation on every click
โข Clicks pass straight through to your apps, so the highlight never gets in your way
โข Keep it always visible, hide it when idle, or show it only while you click
โข Toggle it with a customizable hotkey, and it hides automatically while you annotate
BOARD MODE
โข Instantly cover the screen with a whiteboard or blackboard to draw or illustrate concepts
โข A floating toolbar keeps every tool within reach: set it to always stay visible, hide when idle, or stay hidden so nothing distracts
โข Choose whether the board keeps its own canvas (saved automatically, so you can pick up where you left off) or continues the annotations already on your screen
โข On multi-screen setups, the board appears only on the screen under your cursor, so you can still view your notes privately
BREAK TIMER
โข Display a countdown during breaks to stay on schedule
โข Write your own break message, adjust the size and color, or use a transparent background
โข Enable an optional chime when time is up
โข Minimize the timer and keep an eye on the remaining time with a compact pill in the menu bar; click it to reopen the timer window
SECURE. FAST. RELIABLE
โข DemoPro cannot see or capture what you do in other apps
โข Built natively for macOS, DemoPro runs light and never slows down your machine
DemoPro does not include a screen-zoom feature, as one is built into macOS. The Cursor settings link straight to the macOS Zoom controls when you need them.
