AI Powered Otter App Can Transcribe Your Voice Conversation

The former employees of Google and Veteran Nuance, a speech recognition had launched an app called Otter which is a free service that lets in transcribing speech by using a not so new technology ie, Artificial Intelligence. In this era of technology, companies are focusing more on Voice assistants such as Google assistant, Amazon Alexa, Siri and much more rather than the voice transcriptions. 

The thought came from the Google architect, Sam Liang. The app makes it easy to search through the voice conversation which was earlier quite a difficult process. Are you wondering where will it be helpful? Well, it is needed in the places like interview, meeting, lectures. The purpose of designing this app is to make the whole process of transcribing easy and smooth. The company AISense started this app called Otter with just 15 people from Los Altos. Though Voice transcription is not a new subject but the need for a technology to make the process easier is always necessary.
