Otter.ai

Otter.ai turns spoken conversations into searchable notes. It can join your Zoom, Microsoft Teams and Google Meet calls automatically, or you can record in person from your phone, browser or desktop. You get a live transcript with speaker names, then a summary with decisions and action items.

Features

• Live transcription with speaker identification, in English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese and Chinese.
• Summaries and action items generated after each meeting, with highlights, comments and slide capture during virtual calls.
• Otter AI Chat: ask questions across all your meetings and connected apps, or have it draft follow-ups and reports.
• Bot-free recording: the Mac and Windows desktop app records calls without a bot joining.
• Before and during calls: pre-meeting briefings and live coaching based on past conversations.
• Integrations: an MCP server for AI assistants, Zapier, and CRM sync with Salesforce and HubSpot on paid plans.
• Apps for iOS, Android, Mac and Windows, plus a Chrome extension.

Pricing

As of October 2026 the free Basic plan includes 300 transcription minutes a month and 3 lifetime file imports. Pro, Business and Enterprise add longer meetings, more minutes and imports, admin controls and integrations. Students and teachers with an .edu email get 20% off Pro.

Who it's for

Anyone who spends a lot of time in meetings, lectures or interviews and would rather search a transcript than take notes.
