LOS ALTOS, Calif., May 29, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Otter.ai, creator of Otter, an AI-powered live transcription and collaboration app, introduced Custom Vocabulary to empower users to teach Otter uncommon jargon, acronyms, and names of people, products and companies by adding these words to their accounts. Enterprises can add their entire employee directory into Otter for Teams custom vocabulary ensuring that everyone's name is properly recognized and spelled in meetings. Custom Vocabulary will result in a noticeable improvement in accuracy and legibility.
"With Custom Vocabulary, you will see a big leap in Otter's accuracy in recognizing your unique terminologies and name spellings, such as Jon vs. John, SDGs (sustainable development goals) vs. STDs, the guardian ad litem (legal term) vs. The Guardian (UK newspaper)," said Simon Lau, VP of Product at Otter.ai.
"Otter.ai's Custom Vocabulary raises the accuracy bar even higher enabling companies to customize Otter for Teams transcriptions with employee, client and product names as well as unique industry specific terms," said Zeus Kerravala, chief analyst at ZK Research. "Otter already had the most accurate live transcriptions but Customer Vocabulary makes this AI collaboration app even more valuable as a productivity offering and eliminates the annoying ongoing errors with hard to pronounce names and industry specific jargon and acronyms in meeting notes, broadcasts or conferences"
