Otter Turned an Hour of Meeting Audio Into Notes I Can Find
Otter made this faster once I stopped using it wrong.
I used Otter the way most people first try it - slowly, and with a lot of backtracking.
I tried to skip the setup. The setup turned out to be the whole point.
Step one is the boring part people skip: write down the exact output you want before you open the tool.
Then let Otter do the draft, but watch accuracy dips in a noisy room.
The fix that mattered: check the one fact you'd be embarrassed to get wrong
What changed: transcribes meetings live with speaker labels Now it's a ten-minute job I don't dread.
Don't expect it to be fire-and-forget. The tool handles the volume; you handle the judgment. That split is the whole trick.
