Google Meet AI vs Otter.ai
2026 Comparison

Not itself. Otter captures and transcribes audio, and its extension can record browser audio and export it as an MP3; on Enterprise it replays video synced from Zoom and Google Meet recordings, but it does not capture video natively. Google records the Meet call itself in 1080p and files the MP4 in the organizer's Drive, stopping automatically at eight hours.

Otter. On Enterprise it extracts objections, competitor mentions and buying signals from sales calls and adds sentiment dashboards, and per-speaker talk time comes on every plan. Google's published Meet pages document no comparable sales-coaching layer — its AI writes the notes and answers questions about the meeting.

Google can: an admin selects the United States or the European Union, with Meet recordings and transcripts explicitly covered, from Business Standard up. Google notes data regions do not apply to logs or cached content. Otter documents storage in a United States AWS region with no region choice.

Google documents eight for Meet transcripts and AI notes — English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese and Spanish — and supports one language at a time, so a meeting that switches languages is not covered. Otter documents six on every plan: English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese and Chinese Simplified, with the language set before each recording.

Both can. Otter records on its iOS and Android apps and caches offline until the connection returns. Google takes notes on an in-person conversation from a computer or the Meet app on Android, iPhone or iPad, and saves a summary and full transcript to Drive.
