Otter.aiReviews of otter.ai

I love Otter. It helps me with summarizing my meetings with clients and internal meetings. I have been using it for a few years as a recruiter and it saves me hours a day. It's allowed me to just focus on the conversations instead of if I am capturing everything as I did for years before by transcribing during the meeting.

I utilized Otter.ai to transcribe a sermon that was previously recorded. I was very pleased with the accuracy of the message, with the exception of scripture references. This is minor to me in transcription. I also like the summary feature and action items. This helps for future series or ideas of the main points within the sermon. Otter.ai gave me the ability to add to the action items, such as a task or note list. Otter.ai is an excellent choice for clergy or public presenters who require audio transcription.

This doesn’t work when using Apple earbuds and causes distort which makes it unusable

I've had Otter.ai for a few years now and I have to say it's a must if one needs to transcribe and keep meeting notes. It also has an added bonus of saving my hands and helping me deal with arthritis that has increasingly made it difficult for me to type at full speed with few breaks like I used to. Now I can utilize the recording and transcription features and it really helps keep me productive at the same level I've always had. And this program is intuitive - i.e. the more one uses it the better it gets. It's also much more affordable and user friendly than other programs I've tried in the past, so what's not to love? Please note I did receive an incentive from Otter for this review, however this is an honest reflection of my use and experience.

I have used Otter for several years. Although there are a few bugs to work out once in a while, the program has been extremely helpful to me in my interviews for writing projects.

It was easy to use for transcribing a lecture I liked, plus the few mistakes doe to the sound quality were easy to pinpoint and fix. I also liked liked the summary feature of Otter.ai which is very handy in making reports and bullet pointing a long talk.

I started using Otter hesitantly six months ago, but it has been a game-changer for me as a solopreneur. Before Otter, I struggled to take notes during meetings and often missed important nuances. Otter allowed me to focus on the conversation in real time without worrying about missing any details. After meetings, Otter AI streamlined my sales journaling and helped me analyze progress using the MEDDICC framework. As we step into 2025, I’ve noticed that some participants feel uneasy about AI chatbots in meetings. To address this, I would highly appreciate a more privacy-conscious approach, such as including a prior message in all calendar invites: "This meeting will be recorded on Otter. If you have any concerns, please contact the organizer." This would ensure transparency and foster a more comfortable environment for all attendees.

I use Otter.ai in so many ways in my business. Whether it is providing transcripts for my podcast or developing action items from team and client meetings. Otter.ai has opened up my time and helped me and my team on follow-through making us so much more efficient.
