Otter.ai alternative: Dictate everywhere with Voicy

Looking for an Otter.ai alternative that works everywhere, not just meetings? Voicy delivers professional speech-to-text for all your apps and websites—Gmail, Slack, Google Docs, ChatGPT, and more. While Otter excels at meeting transcription, Voicy gives you universal dictation that works wherever you type, with no minute limits and no recurring subscription fees.

Otter.ai focuses on meeting capture. Voicy works in the text fields where you write emails, code comments, messages, and documents across your computer.

Why choose universal dictation over meeting-only transcription?

Otter.ai is excellent for recording and transcribing Zoom, Teams, and Google Meet sessions. However, most people need dictation for more than just meetings—emails, documents, Slack messages, code comments, and brainstorming. Voicy provides professional speech-to-text wherever you type, not just in video calls.

Choose the tool for the task: Otter.ai for meeting recordings and summaries, or Voicy for live dictation into everyday apps. See the current pricing pages before comparing plan costs.
