Speech-to-text company Otter.ai updated its Google Chrome extension to make it easier to add meeting notes directly to Google Calendar invites. Corporate users can now click the "Add Otter Meeting Notes" button when using their extension to provide additional information when using video conferencing software. With this new feature, OtterBasic, Pro, and Business plan users will be able to easily send Otter meeting note links ahead of time to facilitate collaboration between the meeting host and attendees. It can also help increase productivity, since users won't have to scramble to share the Otter link once the meeting starts.

The ability to add meeting notes directly to Google Calendar invites is the latest enhancement to the Otter Chrome extension, which first launched in January. The Otter.ai Google Chrome extension now allows users to add Otter meeting notes to any Google Calendar invitation, and this feature works with all major video conferencing platforms, including Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, and Cisco Webex. Otter.ai co-founder and CEO Sam Lian explained in a press release how this launch highlights the company's ongoing efforts to make Otter more user-friendly, saying, “As Otter becomes an essential tool for a growing number of professionals, we want to make sure Otter is easy to use for all kinds of professionals who attend meetings both in the office and at home.
