I absolutely recommend I find the note-taking tool to be very useful. The meeting scheduling (using my Google calendar), summarizing, listing key points and how easy it is to share meeting notes with others is top-notch. I can fully focus during meetings because I can always return to Otter to get key points from my meetings. And yes, this review was provided as part of a promotion from Otter. I haven't given 5 stars here simply because the AI still mixes up speakers sometimes but I know it will get better with advancements.

Limited usefulness Useful to get the first, low quality draft transcript, which can then be corrected by a human. I can see a use case here, having spent a lot of time typing up my transcripts manually. It still requires a fair bit of work, but the editing interface is pleasant to work with - until it starts to mess with the text, trying to realign it with audio after I enter my edits. Then the transcript becomes uneditable for a while. Speaker recognition is a complete hit or miss. I would not rely on that at all. Summaries are not only useless, they are actually counterproductive. I was expecting the program to not understand what was discussed at all or to understand it partially. I was surprised to notice it quite often misunderstands it in the worst possible way, i.e. it reverses the meaning of the conversation. Imagine running a business on that!

best stenographer ever We are talking total automation! Link to your calendar, have your meeting, notes are organized and ready to recap in an email followup, done. This could be used as a training opportunity as well; comparing otter's notes to staff notes. Clarifies hearing vs listening.

Otter.ai: A lifesaver for busy listeners! Otter.ai has become an essential tool in my workflow. Whether I'm in a jam-packed meeting, catching a lecture, or conducting an interview, Otter captures every word with impressive accuracy. Overall, Otter.ai is a fantastic transcription tool that has boosted my productivity and transformed how I capture information. Highly recommend! * This review was provided as part of a promotion from Otter.

Perfect Conversation recorder. Perfect Conversation recorder. The AI software not only captured my conversation but also recorded every single detail. And to top it , Otter allows you to share notes with individual or on team levels. That's pretty awesome.
