Moreover, the search functionality within the transcripts is a standout feature. Being able to quickly locate specific parts of a lecture without listening to the entire recording again saves me significant time and effort. This is particularly helpful when reviewing for exams or working on assignments that require precise information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I used Otter for interviewing people for Anthropology assignments. I was blown away by not only the accurate transcripts but the ability to click anywhere on the transcript and hear the actual recording. It was fast and easy and Otter even provided chapters and summaries. I love this app and even paid for a month after my free trial was up. It's expensive and I'm a student so i didn't buy a whole year but would use it again. I am getting paid for this review. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In fact, I use Otter.ai as an evaluation tool of my week/production. Otter.ai keeps me focused on my goals, gives me meeting summaries as well as weekly reports, and insights as to what is coming up in the near future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Their documentation says to contact support for certain issues, but when you do that, all you get is redirected to the help pages that were incorrect in the first place. And no one ever responds to the message. So they are still keeping the data that i want them to delete (along with the account), and their "AI" in the support department just keeps ignoring the request.

I#'m sorry but the transcription function is simply not reliable enough for me yet. It's very difficult to quantify but I'd say it's 85-90% accurate. That might not sound a huge difference but that 10% delta means I have to spend at least one hour per hour of recorded audio correcting the transcription. It's simply not accurate enough to rely upon at the current time. I wondered if it would just take time to 'learn' my voice, tempo, pitch, etc but actually it's no more accurate now than when I started using it in early 2021.

Open the app or webpage and talk or play speech into the tool, and it transcribes the whole thing, making it easy to download as text - write articles, or summarise blogs, podcasts, presentations, etc easily

Otter is an easy, accessible service. It is like having a personal assistant at your elbow who takes the best meeting notes ever, thus freeing you up to be more "present" in meetings. Otter can also be used with Zoom (and it is transparent, so people know that it's providing a transcription, which is good), with the result, again, that I don't have to worry about capturing all the ideas, thoughts, etc. that happen in a Zoom.

The feature that I found to be most impactful for this software was the fact that you wont miss any key points during the meeting. Any important details shared youve got.

I purchased Otter a year ago. I was able to transcribe a few videos. Then in early spring I tried to transcribe the rest of my videos. They would not upload. I went back and forth with support trying to get this fixed. The issue was not fixed and I was told it was being forwarded to someone else. No one ever got back to me and it has been a month. I sent another email and still no response. At this point my subscription will be up soon and I will not renew.

I tried to upload a Zoom MP4 video twice (which took over an hour each time) and I just kept getting an "error" message at the end. I am very interested in buying the service... BUT... What really got me was when their support just told me to check their FAQs sheet instead of helping me.

I produce a short weekly video show with design tips, and I use Otter.ai to record and transcribe the audio so that I can turn the text into a blog post. It saves me so much time!

We use Otter.ai for transcriptions of interviews that I do for marketing and thought leadership purposes. I do interviews to appear in other outlets and to be adapted into print form. This is important because I use it for lead gen. This previously would have taken me hours. Now it takes me seconds to minutes.

Our communications team is the only group using Otter.ai. We use it to transcribe interviews for content development. We often have interviews with employees and clients that range from a few minutes to an hour or longer, and it's too time-intensive to manually transcribe them. Otter.ai simplifies the process for us and provides very clean transcription.

Overall: It is just a wonderful experience and I will continue using the software for a long time I think, that is because of the friendly user interface and accessibility of using its feature. The software gets the work done for me in very good quality and precision. It was the first software to use in this subtitles field and I don't admit using it. Depending on the software and some modifications on my own, the result is very satisfying.

Overall: One of the best tools I have used so far. Otter has a restricted range of capabilities, but it excels at what it does. Otter will assist you in many ways and save you time if you're seeking for a simple approach to take notes during a business call or if you're an author wanting to publish a book.

Overall: Overall, Otter has been one of my favorite tools in my daily routine. The ease of use and ability to seamlessly go from my desktop, to phone and back without missing a beat is testament to the app. The speech recognition is amazing and transcription is the most accurate I've used.

Overall: Otter is easy to use and would make a great edition to your corporate toolbelt. However, it's per user price and issues with certain speakers, mean that this might be your backup choice insofar as transcription.
