Natural ink
Smooth drawing with optional pressure response for compatible pen tablets.
Built for live explanation
Write over anything you present.
PresentPen is a focused macOS annotation tool for teachers and presenters. Draw, highlight, add shapes, focus attention, and erase without leaving the slide, document, simulation, or website already on screen.
Made for macOS
Stay with the idea.
Not the interface.
PresentPen keeps the essential teaching tools close, then gets out of the way when you need the screen back.
Tools with a purpose
Pen, Highlighter, Shapes, Focus, and Eraser—plus Cursor to interact with the app underneath.
Presentation ready
Move the toolbar to the display you want to annotate while your other screens remain usable.
Fast by design
Global shortcuts, remembered tool settings, and a toolbar that collapses when the lesson needs room.
Make the connection
Draw a Line, Arrow, Rectangle, or Ellipse. Outline a structure, connect two ideas, or frame the detail that matters.
Guide their attention
Point with Laser, dim distractions with Spotlight, animate a path with Flow, or emphasize a spot with Click Pulse.
Designed from the classroom
Made for the pace of a real lesson.
PresentPen began with a simple need: make digital explanation feel as immediate as writing on an overhead transparency—without forcing the teacher into a separate whiteboard app.
