Amie vs Otter.ai

Amie is a meeting note taker, calendar, and task app for people who spend their days in calls. It captures audio from your device without sending a bot into Zoom, Google Meet, or Teams, then turns conversations into summaries, transcripts, and action items you can use immediately.

The pieces are wired together rather than bolted on. Private notes you write before or during a call shape the summary. Action items can land in your todo lists, get scheduled automatically, or export to HubSpot, Notion, Slack, Linear, and Pipedrive with a click. The built-in chat has context from your meetings, calendar, and email, so you can draft follow-ups, create tickets, or ask what someone said in last week's demo.

Sales teams, founders, and customer-facing roles are the core audience. The app runs on macOS, Windows, and iOS, syncs Google and Apple calendars, and transcribes in 17 languages with speaker labeling.

Otter.ai is an AI meeting agent that transcribes conversations in real time and turns them into searchable meeting knowledge. It joins Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams calls, records from desktop, mobile, or web, and produces live transcripts, summaries, and action items.

Otter AI Chat lets you search across meetings and connected apps to answer questions and draft follow-ups, reports, and content. The platform also supports bot-free desktop recording on Mac and Windows, multilingual transcription, CRM integrations, and an MCP Server that connects meeting knowledge to ChatGPT and Claude.

Otter positions itself as a Conversational Knowledge Engine for sales, education, media, recruiting, and enterprise teams, with apps for iOS, Android, desktop, and a Chrome extension.
