About Otter.ai
Otter defined the AI meeting category: it joins your Zoom, Meet, or Teams calls, transcribes in real time with speaker labels, and produces summaries with action items assigned to owners. AI Chat answers questions across your entire meeting history. Sales, media, and student tiers cover most use cases, and the free plan remains genuinely useful.
