you how to use this powerful tool now this is going to be a pretty quick simple video just showing you some of the very basic features of Auto AI if you want more in-depth features and more tips and tricks go down into the video description below there's an excellent blog article down there that goes more in depth into Auto AI but this is just going to be a quick overview for you so let's jump in so otter AI offers a lot of solutions when it comes to anything really generating audio into text if you do just a quick overview of their website you can see some of the tools that they have and all of the use cases they give you and there are a lot of different ways you can use otter AI if you want some quicker reviews on the website yourself they give you some use cases for business education individuals and so on but let's jump in and I'll show you how to use it real quick so all you have to do is click Start for free and you can kind of sign in and try it for yourself they offer multiple plans and more importantly they offer a free plan for you to try out so I'm I'm going to do that here and I'm just going to start with a free plan so one great thing about otter is that it's pretty easy to use and they give you a nice getting started page here to go through when you first start out I recommend following along with those when you first start it'll show you the ins and outs and make it a lot easier for you you can also sync it with your Google calendar Microsoft Outlook and zoom meetings over here on the right and if you on the left here if you go to apps as well you can see some other apps you can connect it to such as slack Zoom Dropbox Google Microsoft free calendar and contacts and it's really nice but let's go back home real quick and we'll just jump through this so I'll show you how otter works and to show off how cool it is and we'll just do a test recording here so on the top right here you can see where it says record I'm going to go ahead and click this and then it'll start recording for us and it'll transcribe what I'm saying and it's pretty sweet in real time so we'll hit connect here all right hey this is me talking to you all and as you can see it takes notes very quickly and pretty accurately as well I'm always surprised with how good this works and you can see it's in real time and it's pretty awesome so there you have the note taking transcribing ability of otter uh and it's awesome and you can see I'm not typing you can see my hands and uh it's pretty cool so there's that one and that's kind of how you can use it to record so we can stop recording and now we have our note saved now that is just the very small surface of what otter can do it can do so much more and has a lot of different tools such as autopilot which can automate your entire meeting process for you essentially this jumps into meetings for you even if you're not there and it'll take notes for you in real time making it an invaluable tool especially if you're like I've been in the past and have to be in waytime meetings all the time autopilot can be an invaluable tool for that another awesome thing that otter can do is it can actually transcribe from files that you import so in the top right here you can see where it says import if you click this you can select any audio or video file and drop it in here for it to transcribe so basically you can drag and drop something in I've thrown just a old video clip of mine hopefully it's decent and then once it's done you can go to transcript and it'll transcribe it for you which is really cool um very very awesome thing it can do now again on the basic free plan you get 300 minutes of transcribing allowed to you if you want more these are the different paid plans they offer so there's a pro a business and an Enterprise plan which you can see here which just are going to offer you more transcription minutes so like the pro has 1200 monthly transcription minutes 90 minutes per conversation and you can import and transcribe 10 audio video files per month and they go up from there um if you need more you can contact their sales team but you can get a full detailed comparison if you just want that show you all the different uh features that all of the different paid plans have for you so you can make a choice of if this is right for you but I always recommend just going and trying out the basic free plan play around with it and see if this is something that would even be beneficial to you before you start paying for it so there you have just the basics of Auto Ai and some of the stuff it can do if you want more in-depth features and more explanation of how to use it you can go down into the video description below there's an excellent blog article available it goes way more
