What is Presentify?
Mac app that takes your presentation skills to the next level
It let's you annotate your screen, draw on a whiteboard, highlight your cursor, and spotlight or zoom in on key areas.
- Annotate
- Use pens, highlighters, text, and shapes to draw in real time and emphasize key points during presentations or tutorials. It works with any app or file type.
- Whiteboard
- Create a digital whiteboard to brainstorm big ideas, sketch diagrams, explain complex concepts — or just doodle moustaches and play Pictionary during meetings.
- Cursor Highlight
- Put a stylish ring or squircle around your cursor to draw attention to it during presentations. This helps viewers follow along with your actions.
- Spotlight and Zoom
- Focus your audience's attention by spotlighting specific screen areas or zooming in to magnify small text and details for crystal-clear visibility.
Draw over anything
You can annotate literally anything on your screen—be it images, PDFs, videos, presentations, or even code. It works seamlessly with Zoom, Google Meet, Keynote, PowerPoint, OBS, and more.
- Choose up to 5 colors or use the gradient color for subtle gradient effects.
- Use arrows, circles, squares, lines, or the Text tool to draw exactly what you want.
- Auto-erase drawings after a set time to continue your demo seamlessly.
- Draw on a whiteboard instead of the screen for explaining concepts.
Cursor Highlight
A sleek halo around your cursor with customizable colors and shapes, plus left/right click animations to make your tutorials easy to follow.
- Customize the color, border, opacity, animation style, and much more.
- Choose from various shapes like rings, squircles, and rhombuses.
- Quickly highlight your cursor with a global keyboard shortcut.
- Essential when demonstrating software with many controls or buttons.
Spotlight & Zoom
Direct your viewers' focus by spotlighting particular regions of your display and dimming the rest, or enlarge content to make tiny text and fine details easily visible.
- Just like theatre spotlights, illuminate key areas while dimming distractions.
- Customize the spotlight's size, shape, and intensity to suit your needs.
- The zoom view follows your cursor, ensuring viewers can always see what you're pointing at.
- Adjust the zoom level, size and shape of the zoom view, border, and more with ease.
Customize
You can customize almost everything that you see in the app.
From favorite colors for annotation and cursor highlight shape to the size of the spotlight and zoom, everything is customizable.
Key Shortcuts
Almost every action in the app can be performed using keyboard shortcuts, making it not only easier to use but also seamlessly integrable with Stream Deck.
You can even set your own custom key shortcuts for the main actions.

I’m working as a network technical trainer, and I do a lot of drawing when explaining things, this app is really helpful for me, so I don’t need to open other app to draw, just press a shortcut, then I can draw on my screen

Un outil simple et efficace que l'on peut prendre en main facilement et rapidement. Mes présentations deviennent plus pertinentes et agréables grand merci au développeur 🙏

Such a wonderful app. If I had to reinstall only one app on my company laptop, it would be this one.

Lifesaving Teacher Tool. I use this tool every single day. It has supported my students with online learning, helping them to follow along during lessons.

Excellent support. I use this for Zoom presentations (like it better than the native Zoom cursor). I had one question for the developer, who responded in 10 minutes!

Love it! Does exactly what it needs to and is compatible with OBS. Also amazing customer support, really very impressed.

Replico la pantalla del Mac en el iPad, y para pintar uso la app Presentify instalada en el Mac(si tienes SetApp está incluida). El pencil hace de puntero en la pantalla duplicada.

Aside from the common dev tool stuff: Presentify is a go-to tool for me, when screen-sharing/presenting. Has nearly all the features of Zoomit on Windows. Worth the price.

So I'm really enjoying MacOS, and it turns out that if I can do something on either operating system, I default to my Mac. Without these apps I constantly use, it wouldn't be the case: 1. Presentify 2. Maccy 3. Rectangle

Great for WFH and Sales Presentation. Having to work from home and doing 20 sales meeting per week, plus teaching at university, I highly recommend this app. Very easy to use, with all keyboard shortcut flexibility so you can present like you are in there in person.

Presentify for drawing boxes, arrows, and spontaneous whiteboarding (Important because sometimes clicking things actually is NOT what you want to do, but handwaving with some interactivity gets you out of a bad time).

Perfect for Discord users sharing screen. I'm running an online D&D game on Discord. This app allows me to draw on a shared battle map for my players or just highlight an area with the round cursor (the normal mouse cursor doesn't show up on the Mac version of Discord while screen sharing). Worth every cent! Thank you.

Just started using Presentify and it's made screen sharing waaay better. I can annotate content/images/video/anything directly on my screen. Saves me so much time and back & forth. Faster feedback loops = better collaboration & better results.

I have been using this app now for two years when tutoring students online and face to face. The ability to annotate anywhere on the screen while looking at a pdf, website, etc really helps when working with students. The new release which came out a couple of days ago is fantastic.

We ended up using PointerFocus on Windows and Presentify on macOS. These apps highlight the cursor and show click effects—so even though Parsec still doesn’t natively show the host’s cursor when they’re driving, we can now clearly see where the mouse is at all times.

"Chatting with Ram was like app office hours. This is how all support should be. I've never downloaded an app and been able to chat directly with the developer for help. Really means a lot. Thanks again, Ram! I'm very excited to use this in teaching."
Christian Cardozo - MIT
"This elegantly designed app fills a great need, especially in these days of screen sharing on zoom, when you want to emphasize parts of a presentation as you speak. Ram Patra, the developer, was incredibly responsive and helpful when I had a question and quickly volunteered to produce a video explanation for others who might encounter the same issue. Highly recommended!"
