For this article, I’m looking at services that use AI transcription, although some of them offer both.
While using AI to interpret and transcribe audio has improved vastly over the past few years, it is still less accurate - but considerably less expensive - than transcription by people. But before we describe some of the alternatives out there, a few notes.įirst, there are actually two types of transcription services: one that uses an AI engine and the other that uses human transcribers. Otherwise, you can find an alternative service to use.

And if you subscribe to the annual Pro plan by September 26th (or are already a subscriber), then the next time you automatically upgrade, you will retain the older features for one more year.Īnd after that? Well, if you decide to stay with Otter, you will either put up with the decreased feature set or pay for Otter’s Business plan ($30 a month or $240 annually), which will still have the 6,000-minute per month / four-hour per conversation allowance, along with other features. While it is raising its monthly fee from $12.99 to $16.99, its annual fee of $99.96 is not changing. To Otter’s credit, the company is trying to ameliorate the pain to its paying customers - somewhat.
Or somebody who uses Otter to record doctor visits or conversations with older relatives will have to remember to start a new recording after 90 minutes is up. What this means is that, for example, a reporter who uses Otter to track interviews and was able to do up to 100 one-hour interviews a month is now limited to 20. For paying customers who are on Otter’s Pro plan, the change will be nearly as (or more) drastic: they will be downgraded from a monthly allowance of 6,000 minutes of transcribed audio to 1,200 minutes and from a maximum of four hours of audio per conversation to 90 minutes. Transcription service Otter is making free users pay to access older recordingsįor free users, it means that they will no longer have access to all their past transcriptions - only the last 25.
