About this resource

About

Otter.ai is an AI-driven transcription platform that produces live captions and searchable written transcripts for in-person conversations, video calls (Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams), and recorded audio. Its freemium model gives individuals 300 free monthly transcription minutes, with paid tiers available for higher-volume users.

What It Does

Otter transcribes speech in real time, identifies different speakers, highlights key words, and lets users add comments and bookmarks to transcripts. The OtterPilot feature automatically joins and captions Zoom, Teams, or Meet calls without manual activation. All transcripts are fully searchable, exportable, and sharable, and the audio can be replayed in sync with the text.

Who It Helps

Deaf and hard-of-hearing users who need live captions and a permanent written record of meetings, university lectures, or professional conversations. Also benefits people with auditory processing disorders, ADHD, or anyone who processes written content more reliably than spoken audio.
