Notta review

Notta has the lowest paid entry price on this list: Pro is $8.17 a month, billed as $97.99 a year, with 1,800 transcription minutes a month, recordings up to 5 hours and 100 file uploads. Notta also advertises a 50% education discount, which makes it cheaper still for students. Its standout feature is bilingual transcription, which handles two languages at once, useful for language students, interpreters and interviews that switch between English and Spanish. You can record meetings with a bot or bot-free through the desktop app, transcribe uploads and YouTube links, and choose on-device transcription when you prefer audio to stay local. Each recording gets AI notes with summaries and action items. The free plan is mostly a demo, though: 120 minutes a month but only 3 minutes per conversation, and transcript export and custom vocabulary are Pro features. Teams that want unlimited minutes need Business at $16.67 per seat a month billed annually.
