What they are

Otter.ai

Otter.ai records, transcribes, and summarizes spoken audio in real time, syncing words to the original audio so you can search and replay any moment. Podcasters, interviewers, and content teams use it to turn conversations into searchable text without manual note-taking. Transcription accuracy is strong for clear speech but drops noticeably with heavy accents, crosstalk, or poor microphone quality.

Captions

Captions is a mobile-first AI video editor aimed at creators who produce talking-head content for social media. It auto-generates captions, removes filler words, corrects eye contact, and can clone your voice for overdubs. The app targets solo creators who want a post-production shortcut, though its desktop feature set is still catching up to its mobile counterpart.
