Our take
Otter specifically thought of business professionals who are running from one meeting to the next, while juggling multiple projects with various teams. The company's technology integrates with platforms like Zoom, providing a way to record meetings and convert speech to text in real-time. It then streamlines communications for smarter, more collaborative, and more productive meetings—the first use of conversational AI to turn meetings into an actionable workflow.
This allows people to benefit from captioning, as well as teams to have a written record of the conversation, which can be edited and shared. Its AI can also highlight and comment on important sections of a meeting transcript, and automatically tag action items. In addition to businesses, students and universities – including UCLA, Tulane, and Western Kentucky – use the tool to increase accessibility.
The platform is used in more than 230 countries and has transcribed over 100 million meetings. Otter is far from alone in the audio transcription market, estimated to be worth nearly $41.89 billion by 2030, with Google’s free transcription tool posing a potential threat, as well as competitors such as Rev.
