Easily transcribe audio and video with Otter.ai

otter.aiThis is a great tip if you are creating audio or video for your business.

Otter.ai uses artificial intelligence to take audio or video and create a text version. I have found it very accurate and enables me to create written content in the form of blogs and even whole books from the videos I create for Youtube marketing.

Here is a video where I explain what and how Otte.ai works. And then below you will see the transcript of the video which took me 10 minutes to “clean up”.

Here is the transcription.

Today I would like to give you a very quick introduction into Otter.ai. So this is an online tool that transcribes audio. And it’s very accurate and even if there are any corrections to be made then it is super easy to do and make and edit the text version. The system lets you hear the audio and edit the text at the same time, it’s very powerful.

Julian Mills
So the first way to use it would be using it to record audio, so you could use it on a computer as I am doing today or I could use it on a smartphone, like a dictaphone that automatically transcribes the audio recording. It’s super powerful and accurate. The other way is to upload audio files and video files. So if you’re creating a series of videos for something else, you just upload it to Otter.ai and it will auto transcribe it for you. So if you have got lots of content as video then it would not be much of a step up to take the audio and convert it to text as a printed book or ebook.

Julian Mills
So I will now log in and show you how Otter.ai works. So, first of all, you find Otter via the website www.otter.ai. AI obviously stands for artificial intelligence. Now that I’ve logged in you can see my previous projects.

Julian Mills
I’m going to record some audio now. So when I start talking, I record the audio and you’ll see it start to type as I talk and it’s very accurate.

Julian Mills
So I’ll just stop recording and now you will see the system is processing. It takes a minute or two while it works out what it has got. So here is the little bit of audio we just recorded.

Julian Mills
So now we have a Conversation we can click the Edit button.

Julian Mills
Now I’m able to go into the Conversation and correct any typos or wrong words and can listen to the audio recording so that I correct anything that is difficult to understand I can repeatedly play it and it all stays in sync as I add and take away words.

Julian Mills
In addition, I can also upload files. In this example I uploaded a whole video and transcribed it and tidied it up and put in the speaker’s name in, it will even work out who the different speakers are. And when you are done just export the text. And you can use that for ebooks or write a whole book or whatever you want. So I definitely recommend otter.AI, it enables you to leverage the content you’re already creating. And after recording this video, I will create a transcript of this video. And that will probably take me 5 to 10 minutes to clean and tidy up and create a blog post from it. So I hope this demonstrates the power of otter.ai and I am recommending it to everyone because it’s so super powerful.
