To use the new feature, Chrome users will need to install the Otter.ai Chrome extension from the Chrome Web Store, then sign in to their Otter.ai account. Other systems, meanwhile, tend to just offer live captions during the meeting itself. Otter points out that there are other live captioning options already available for Google Meet, but the difference here is that Otter's system creates a collaborative transcript when the meeting ends. In addition, users can access the company's Live Captions feature that supports custom vocabulary. The transcripts themselves can also be edited after the fact by adding images and highlights, and they can be searched by keywords, as with any Otter.ai transcription. It also offers a more accessible way for engaging with live meeting content.Īnd because the transcriptions can be shared after the fact, people who missed the meeting can still be looped in to catch up - an increasing need in the remote-work era of the pandemic, where home and parenting responsibilities can often distract users from their daily tasks. The company says the feature helps businesses cut down on miscommunication, particularly for non-native English speakers who may have trouble understanding the spoken word. They can also adjust the text size, then save and share the audio transcripts when the meeting has wrapped. Here, users can view the live transcript of the online meeting, as it occurs. The panel can be moved around and scrolled through as the meeting is underway.
Once installed, a "Live Notes" panel will launch directly in the Chrome web browser during Google Meet calls, where it appears on the side of the Google Meet interface. However, in this case, Otter.ai will provide its live, interactive transcripts and video captions by way of a Chrome web browser extension.
Otter.ai, the A.I.-powered voice transcription service that already integrates with Zoom for recording online meetings and webinars, is today bringing its service to Google Meet's over 100 million users.
