What this solves
When you present from your Mac, you often need notes that should not be part of the share: speaker prompts, sales context, sensitive customer details, internal numbers, or the next step in a live demo. Ghost Privacy lets NotchPad become that private surface.
Founder and product demos
Keep talking points, metrics, objections, and transitions in front of you while the audience sees only the shared app or deck.
Tutorials and recordings
Read the script and checklist while recording a clean walkthrough without baking your notes into the final video.
Client calls
Keep agenda notes, account context, names, and follow-up reminders available without exposing internal details.
Teaching and workshops
Keep prompts, examples, timings, and private reminders near your shared material without turning them into student-facing content.
How to use NotchPad as private presenter notes
- Write your notes in NotchPad. Use quick notes for a script, bullets, demo flow, or meeting agenda.
- Enable Ghost Privacy. Keep the NotchPad window visible on your Mac while hiding it from screen sharing and recordings.
- Float the window where it helps. Place NotchPad near your camera, next to a demo window, or in a quiet corner.
- Use copy buttons and snippets. If you need to paste a link, reply, prompt, or command during the call, keep it one click away.
- Snap back when finished. Return NotchPad to the notch and keep your notes for later reuse.
Why NotchPad instead of presenter notes?
| Need | Slide presenter notes | NotchPad |
|---|---|---|
| Works outside slides | Usually tied to the deck | Works with demos, browsers, docs, calls, and recordings |
| Hidden from capture | Depends on the app and display setup | Ghost Privacy hides NotchPad from screen shares and recordings |
| Reusable text | Manual copy from notes | Snippets and visible copy buttons keep repeatable text close |
| Flexible position | Often fixed to the presentation interface | Floating Mode lets you place notes anywhere and snap back |
Still a full NotchPad workflow
Screen sharing notes are one use case. NotchPad still handles the rest of the private Mac text workflow: quick notes, Clipboard History, Snippets, Apple Notes access, imported files, sensitive-text protection, and voice-note handoff with NotchLive.
Notes are free forever. Pro unlocks Clipboard History and Snippets for $7.99 one-time.
