Otter.ai has announced an expansion of its multilingual capabilities, introducing a new transcription feature that can seamlessly follow conversations in multiple languages during meetings. This update will support a total of 31 languages, enhancing accessibility for international teams and addressing the challenges posed by language differences in collaboration.
The addition of 27 new languages marks Otter's largest language expansion to date, allowing the platform to automatically detect language changes without user intervention. This feature aims to facilitate smoother communication in diverse teams, as it can handle transitions between languages such as English, Korean, and Portuguese within the same conversation.
Otter.ai's new multilingual transcription feature is set to roll out soon, with 13 languages already available, including Mandarin Chinese and German. The remaining languages, including Arabic and Hindi, are expected to be added shortly. This development follows Otter's recent $320 million funding round and its ongoing efforts to enhance workplace AI tools beyond transcription.
