TranscribeCat vs Otter.ai

Otter is $16.99 per user per month and is built around live meetings. TranscribeCat is $2.00 an hour for files you upload. They are not really the same product.

What Otter.ai is

Otter is built around meetings: it can record calls, transcribe live and produce notes. Uploaded files have separate plan limits, so meeting minutes alone do not describe its value for existing recordings.
