Google Meet is one of the leading web conferencing platforms in 2021. Although Google Meet offers live captions, you can’t use it to save transcriptions. If you’re someone who spends a lot of time attending Google Meet meetings, here are two tools you can use to transcribe your Google Meet meetings to seamlessly keep track and review them later.

We’ve covered two Google Chrome extensions to help you transcribe Google Meet calls and meetings. You can choose one from these based on your preference. Without further delay, let’s get started.

  • Using Otter.ai
  • Using Tactiq

1. Using Otter.ai

Speech to text transcription applications maker Otter.ai recently released a Chrome extension that brings live transcription support to Google Meet. With Otter.ai’s browser extension, you can view the full transcript as they happen, choose to view closed captions, and share the transcript with your team after the meeting.

  1. Otter automatically saves the transcription to your account. You can access it from the ‘My Conversations‘ section available in the left sidebar. Here, you will see the transcriptions of all your recorded Google Meet meetings.

Note: Otter supports Zoom meeting transcriptions too, but accessing that feature requires a paid plan. You can avail a month’s free trial to try it out if you’re interested. 

Tactiq is another extension you can use to manage Google Meet transcriptions. You even get a highlight tool with Tactiq to help you quickly mark and access important segments in the meeting.
