I would use Otter when remembering decisions is harder than holding the meeting. Check names and numbers in the transcript, and make sure everyone knows recording is happening. A summary should make follow-up easier, not become another unread document.

I would use Otter when remembering decisions is harder than holding the meeting. Check names and numbers in the transcript, and make sure everyone knows recording is happening. A summary should make follow-up easier, not become another unread document. Test a representative call with your accents, names and terminology, then check the summary against the recording. A generated action item should still be reviewed before it becomes someone's assignment.

About Otter
Record meetings, produce transcripts, and turn discussions into searchable notes. Otter supports live transcription and meeting follow-up across common video-call platforms.
Recording minutes, imported files, and maximum meeting length are different allowances. Confirm all three for your normal workload.
Otter turns conversations into searchable transcripts and meeting notes, but the allowances differ for live recording and imported files. Basic has a monthly transcription cap and a short per-conversation limit. Pro increases those limits; Business expands recording and collaboration. Test a representative call with your accents, names and terminology, then check the summary against the recording. A generated action item should still be reviewed before it becomes someone's assignment.
