Otter
Otter.ai transcribes meetings and lectures in real time and produces AI summaries and action items, widely used by students, journalists and hybrid teams.
Pros
- AI meeting transcription platform
- Integrates with Zoom, Teams, and Google Meet
- Supports custom AI workflows
Cons
- The free plan stops at 300 transcription minutes a month and 30 minutes per conversation, with only three lifetime file imports
- SSO, SCIM and API access are Enterprise-only
- HIPAA support is a paid add-on rather than standard.
Cost
Basic is free with 300 transcription minutes per user each month, 30 minutes per conversation and 3 lifetime file imports; Pro $16.99/user/month billed monthly or $8.33/user/month billed annually; Business $30/user/month billed monthly or $19.99/user/month billed annually; Enterprise is custom-quoted and adds SSO, SCIM, the Otter API and an optional HIPAA add-on.
Verdict
The default choice for meeting transcription and AI notes, and the free tier is generous enough to judge it properly before paying. Budget for Pro if you record more than about five hours a month.
