However, many people struggle with taking notes while simultaneously paying attention to the speaker.

It is a handy feature that makes it easy to share meetings with other people who may have missed them or to review what was said. When recording calls or meetings, you must choose whether to save it locally or on the cloud, which can then be transcribed using Otter.ai. The prerequisites are you will have to upgrade your free Otter.ai plan to a business plan to use the Sync Cloud Recordings add-on and transcribe cloud-stored meetings. You will also need to be a Zoom Pro or higher-level account user with an enabled cloud recording feature to sync cloud recording. Now how do we transcribe Zoom recordings in Otter.ai? You'll find the Import Audio and Video option in the top-right corner of the home page. Here. Here you can drag and drop audio or video files to generate transcripts in one click. Or select Browse Files and then navigate to the Downloads folder to review the local recordings. Method 2 is to transcribe cloud Zoom recordings.

Otter can now sync and transcribe all your new Zoom cloud recordings. Alright. Now how do we set up live transcription in Zoom?
