Notta is an AI meeting assistant: it joins calls, transcribes live, writes summaries and does bilingual transcription. Its free plan is meant as a taste of that — 3 minutes per conversation — which isn't enough to try it on a real interview or lecture.

ScribeToAny focuses on recordings. The free plan handles a full 30-minute file, and paid plans take files up to three hours, in about 98 languages, with subtitle export included.
