Otter.ai Adds 27 Languages to Its Meeting Transcription Tool
Otter says it now supports 13 more languages, with 14 more coming, bringing the total to 31.
Otter.ai, the AI meeting note-taker, is adding 27 languages in what it calls its largest language expansion yet, according to TechCrunch. Once the rollout finishes, Otter will support 31 languages in total.
Thirteen are available now: Mandarin Chinese, Korean, German, Italian, Cantonese, Portuguese, Russian, Indonesian, Malay, Dutch, Turkish, Vietnamese and Polish. Fourteen more are coming soon, including Swedish, Danish, Finnish, Arabic, Hindi, Thai, Hebrew, Norwegian, Greek, Macedonian, Persian, Czech, Hungarian and Romanian.
Otter is also working on a multilingual feature meant to follow a meeting as speakers switch languages, with no settings changes. TechCrunch describes that feature as upcoming, not live yet. Otter says the new languages run on its own speech models, with native-speaking volunteers reviewing transcripts for accuracy. The report does not mention pricing or which plans get the languages.
If you record calls with customers or suppliers who speak another language, test Otter on a real call in that language before relying on it. Check which plan includes the new languages, since the report does not say, and review transcripts for names and numbers.
