Meetings
Record the call or transcribe the file afterwards, with speaker labels. All on your own device.
File transcription
Already have the audio? Superwhisper handles MP3, MP4, M4A, WAV, WEBM, and most other formats. If Zoom or Teams exported it, you can almost certainly transcribe it.
Longer files keep speaker labels, so you can see who said what across the call. For meetings held in another language, transcription covers 100+ languages and detects the language for you. Want to try it on any audio file first? The transcribe tool takes a single upload with no account.
Record the call
The Superwhisper app records audio straight from meeting apps. Zoom, Teams, Discord, Slack, and the rest. When the call ends you get a transcript with speaker labels, and none of it gets uploaded.
It doesn't join as a visible bot the way Otter.ai does. Superwhisper records from your device in the background, so nobody sees a "bot has joined" notice. For confidential calls or strict data policies, recording on-device is what makes that possible.
After the call
Sometimes you don't need the whole transcript, you need a summary. Hit your keyboard shortcut and say what happened. "Marketing wants the landing page by Friday, Jake is on the API, follow up with design next week." Super Mode turns that into clean notes you can paste into Notion or Slack.
Plenty of people do both. Keep the full transcript for the record, then dictate a short recap with action items. If you want to feel the difference before installing anything, the browser voice recorder lets you record and transcribe a quick note right now.
How it compares
Otter.ai joins your meetings live, transcribes in real time, and tags speakers from the cloud. If you want a live meeting bot, that's the tool. Superwhisper transcribes recordings on your device and doubles as a voice typing tool for any app, starting at a lower price.
Guillermo Rauch, the CEO of Vercel, called it "insanely fast and does just what you expect." Here's how the three stack up for meeting work.
