Processing the recording
The recording must be processed before viewing it. Otter will send an email when the process is
completed.
Transcribe an online meeting, webinar, or virtual event
Many of us are remote workers for the time being, and phone/video remains an important tool
for daily work communication. Video conferencing has become a key component of people's
daily workflow. Otter integrates with Zoom, making it a breeze to transcribe meetings
and enabling real-time transcriptions and captioning in Zoom for meeting participants. If the
meeting host is not using Zoom, it's as easy as 1-2-3!
Step 1: Join an online meeting, webinar, or event
Whether you're using Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, Skype, or Cisco Webex, join the
meeting as you normally would on your computer.
Note: Be sure to play the audio through your computer speakers, turn up the volume, and
do not use a headset.
Step 2: Begin transcribing using Otter
Using Otter on a web browser on the same computer (recommended) or the mobile app,
begin recording the meeting.
When using the Otter mobile app, place your device next to your computer's speaker, and refrain
from moving or touching the device to avoid any unnecessary background noise that can affect
the transcription accuracy.
