Washington [US], August 19 (ANI): Automated transcription service Otter is set to make some big changes to its offerings for both free and paying customers.
According to The Verge, the company will be downgrading its features, reducing the number of audio imports users can make; the length of audio they can transcribe each month, and so on, though it is giving free users access to some new tools.
One of the biggest changes, though, is that free users will no longer be able to access their full back catalogue of recordings. Instead, they'll only have access to the most recent 25.
The rest will be "archived", that is, they'll still exist on Otter's servers, but users will have to either delete other conversations to access them or pay to upgrade to Otter's "pro" plan.
This and other changes to the service will kick in on September 27, so any free users with more than 25 recordings may want to download their back catalogue before then, reported The Verge.
After September 27, free users will still be able to access these recordings by downloading and then deleting audio files one at a time but it'll be more of a hassle.
The general upshot, though, seems to be that the company has been too generous to users, and now needs to nudge more people onto its paid plan.
It's not all bad news, though: Otter is giving some new tricks to free users too, including access to an auto-join feature for meetings and free AI-generated summaries of recordings.
These features were first added for paid users earlier this year, as part of Otter's plan to position itself not just as a transcription tool, but as a multi-purpose work hub, as per The Verge. (ANI)

Review: Cooking the future with upliance 2.0 - A worthy kitchen upgrade?

I like cooking; it works like meditation for me. The process of preparing and gathering ingredients, imagining new possibilities, and eventually enjoying the meal brings me genuine happiness. I always keep an eye on new market trends, so when I heard about the upliance 2.0, I was intrigued--especially by the strong AI element. This next-generation 'kitchen companion' promises to take the guesswork out of cooking while operating 40% faster than the previous model. After testing the product and whipping up several dishes, here is my take on whether this INR 39,999 appliance deserves a spot on your counter.
