Understanding Otter Notes

How Do Otter Notes Work?

Real-Time Transcription

1. Voice Recognition: Otter starts transcribing immediately during live meetings or uploaded recordings. It uses advanced speech recognition technology to recognize different speakers and attach timestamps to their comments.

Review and Edit

1. Editing Capabilities: After a meeting, Otter Notes are ready for review and editing. Users can correct transcription errors, add comments, and highlight key information to make the final notes clearer.
2. Speaker Identification: Otter assigns specific speakers based on prior training, so transcripts reflect who said what, enabling effective follow-ups.

Collaboration and Sharing

1. Team Collaboration: Share your Otter Notes with team members who can annotate them further, highlight critical decisions, or ask questions directly on the transcript.
2. Export and Integrate: You can export Otter Notes as text files or PDFs, or integrate them with apps like Google Docs, Evernote, or Dropbox for organized archiving.
