Is anybody aware of any self hosted alternatives to Parrot.ai or Otter.ai? I’ve tried these services and I’m finding them very useful, but the price tag is a little steep. It seems like something that the open source community could solve. Anybody know of any projects, either existing or upcoming? Thanks!

    I didn’t know about those services either! What are the “montly recording hours”?

    P.s. Since you weren’t rude, why didn’t the people who downvoted you just write their thinking? I’ll never understand those people!!! Aren’t we here to share?

      The free version of Otter.ai limits you to 30 minutes per conversation, 300 total monthly transcription minutes. “Pro” moves you up to 90 minutes per conversation with 1200 total minutes for $8.33/month (billed annually). “Business” is $20/month with 4 hours per conversation and 6000 total minutes. They have an “Enterprise” version, but it is one of those “call for a quote” things.

      The Pro is somewhat reasonably prices, but the 90 minutes per meeting limit is a wall I would bounce up against pretty often. Hard to justify the $20/month for me when a couple years of service is about the same price as the GPU I’ve been wanting anyway. Plus, the GPU would be a business expense now, right? :)
