Otter

Otter.ai is an AI-driven transcription and meeting assistant that automatically records and transcribes spoken content in real time or from uploaded files, generating editable notes, summaries, and searchable transcripts. Users can connect Otter to virtual meetings (like Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meet), capture live speech, identify speakers, annotate text, and export output in formats such as DOCX, PDF, or SRT. The platform supports collaboration and integrates with calendars, helping teams capture and revisit key assertions from conversations and workflow discussions.

How Otter.ai Works:

• Audio Input: Otter records directly from live meetings, uploaded audio/video files, or on-device recordings.
• Automatic Transcription: AI models convert speech to text in near real time with speaker labeling and timeline sync.
• Summarization & Insights: The tool generates summaries, keywords, and visual outlines to highlight important content.
• Editing & Collaboration: Users can edit text, tag speakers, search by keyword/date, and share transcripts with others.
• Exports & Integrations: Export transcripts as text

Primary Use Cases:

• Meeting transcription & summaries for team collaboration.
• Interview & lecture transcription for documentation and research.
• Searchable knowledge base of past audio discussions.
• Speaker identification & annotation to organize multi-person conversations.
• Caption generation for videos (SRT exports).
