Speech to Text
Otter’s speech-to-text software makes it effortless to convert audio into accurate, editable transcripts in real time. Whether you’re capturing meetings, lectures, tutorials, or podcast recordings, Otter helps you transform spoken content into actionable insights fast. Dictation and voice typing are easier than ever.
Step-by-Step Guide
Start by connecting Otter to your calendar so it can automatically join and transcribe your Zoom, Google Meet, or Microsoft Teams meetings. Prefer to transcribe an existing file? Just upload your audio or video from your device. Otter supports common file types like MP3, MP4, WAV, and M4A, making it easy to convert voice or video into text in seconds.
Once recording begins or your file is uploaded, Otter instantly starts transcribing. Otter’s voice-to-text process labels speakers and timestamps in real time, and generates a clean, readable transcript as the conversation unfolds. No waiting and no manual work — just fast and automatic transcription.
Review your transcript and make quick edits as needed. You can correct words, tag speakers, and highlight important points for reference. Otter also auto-generates a meeting summary with clickable time-stamped highlights so you can jump to key moments with ease.
When your transcript is ready, export it in multiple formats — including TXT, PDF, DOCX, or SRT — or share it directly via link, email, or Slack. Otter can even automate sharing with your team, keeping everyone aligned without extra effort.
