Frequently Asked Questions

Otter.ai excels at live collaboration (shared notes, highlights during meetings) and integrates natively with Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams. Fireflies focuses on post-meeting insights (action items, topic tracking, CRM integration). For real-time collaboration, choose Otter. For sales/customer success teams needing CRM sync, choose Fireflies. Both offer 90%+ accuracy.

Teams save 5-10 hours per week per person on manual note-taking and meeting follow-up. At a $50/hour blended rate, that's $250-500/week per user ($13K-26K/year). Meeting assistants cost $10-20/month per user ($120-240/year), delivering 50-100x ROI. Additional benefits: faster onboarding (searchable meeting history), better accountability (automatic action item tracking), reduced meeting fatigue.

Both Otter and Fireflies are SOC 2 Type II certified and GDPR compliant. Transcripts are encrypted at rest and in transit. For highly sensitive meetings (legal, M&A, HR), use platforms with end-to-end encryption or disable recording. Always announce recording at meeting start for compliance. Enterprise plans offer data residency options and custom retention policies.
