What is this tool?
Notta's strongest arguments are reach and language coverage: 58 transcription languages with bilingual and real-time translation on top, reachable from the browser, Mac and Windows, iPhone and Android, and a Chrome extension. The one thing to understand before you trial it is how the free plan is shaped. It advertises 120 transcription minutes a month, but caps any single conversation at three minutes — so the monthly pool is real but spendable only three minutes at a time. Paid plans lift that to five hours per recording, which is what makes it usable for real meetings.

Notta is a meeting recorder and transcriber with two things it leans on: how many languages it handles, and how many places it runs. Transcription covers 58 languages, and rather than treating multilingual work as separate jobs it offers bilingual transcription and real-time translation within a single meeting. That is the capability the product is genuinely built around.
Reach is the second argument. There is a web app, desktop apps for Mac and Windows, iOS and Android apps and a Chrome extension, and the recorder covers Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams and Webex with Google Calendar sync to pick meetings up automatically. Files you already have can be uploaded into the same pipeline, metered separately from live minutes.
Above the transcript sits the part that decides whether any of this gets read. AI notes summarise, a document builder turns a meeting into something circulable, meeting infographics render decisions visually, and cross-meeting Q&A lets the archive be questioned as a whole rather than searched file by file. The vendor's own headline is about visualising meeting decisions rather than about capturing audio, and the feature set follows that.
The plans are metered on three separate axes and it pays to know which one binds you. Transcription minutes run 120 on Free and 1,800 on Pro before becoming unlimited on Business. File uploads run 50, 100 and 200 a month. AI summaries run 10, 100 and 200. A heavy uploader and a heavy meeter will hit different ceilings on the same plan.
The free plan deserves a sentence of its own, because its two limits interact in a way the headline number hides. It offers 120 transcription minutes a month and, separately, a cap of three minutes per conversation. Both are true: the monthly pool exists, but it can only be spent three minutes at a time, which makes the free tier a way to see the output quality rather than a way to transcribe a meeting. Paid plans raise the per-recording ceiling to five hours.
Pricing is published in US dollars with the code shown. Pro is $8.17 USD a month billed annually — $97.99 for the year — or $13.99 USD month to month. Business is $16.67 USD a month billed annually at $199.99. Enterprise is quoted and starts at 51 seats, which is a real threshold rather than a formality: below it, Business is the ceiling.
Is this right for you?
Quick fit check against how you actually work.
Choose this if
- Your meetings run in more than one language and you need bilingual capture or live translation
- People join from phones and desktops and you want one record regardless of where the call was taken
- You want to ask questions across a whole archive of past meetings rather than search them one at a time
- Your monthly transcription volume is high enough that unlimited minutes on Business is worth $16.67 USD a month
- You need the transcript to become a shareable document rather than a file someone has to read
Consider alternatives if
- You are counting on the free plan for real meetings — it caps any single conversation at three minutes, which one reviewer found out the hard way
- You need recordings longer than five hours, the per-recording ceiling on both paid plans
- You are under 51 seats but want Enterprise terms, which start there
- Your requirement is CRM-side automation breadth rather than language coverage, since the documented integration set here is compact
Key features
What you can actually do with this tool.
58 languages, with bilingual capture
Beyond the language count, a single meeting can be handled bilingually and translated as it happens — which is a different capability from transcribing two meetings separately.
Desktop, mobile and browser, not just the web app
Web, Mac and Windows desktop, iOS, Android and a Chrome extension. A call taken on a phone in a taxi lands in the same place as one taken at a desk.
Questions across meetings, not just within one
Cross-meeting Q&A treats the transcript archive as one searchable body rather than a folder of separate records, which is what makes a back catalogue of calls worth keeping.
Output shaped for reading, not just for storing
AI notes, a document builder and meeting infographics turn a transcript into something circulable. The product is pitched on visualising decisions rather than on archiving audio.
Unlimited transcription from the Business plan
The monthly minute allowance rises steeply across the paid plans and then disappears altogether at Business — the point at which you stop counting.

Frequently asked
Common questions about this tool, answered.
Can I transcribe a real meeting on the free plan?
Not a whole one. Free gives 120 transcription minutes a month but caps each conversation at three minutes. One reviewer tried it with a 40-minute file and could only see the first three minutes — the vendor's pricing page confirms both limits. Treat free as a quality sample; paid plans allow up to five hours per recording.
What does it cost?
Free costs nothing and takes no card. The two paid tiers are billed either annually, at $97.99 and $199.99 for the year, or month to month at a higher rate — the plan table above carries the per-month equivalents. Enterprise is quoted, from 51 seats up.
How many languages does it handle?
58 for transcription, with bilingual transcription and real-time translation available for meetings that run in more than one.
When does transcription stop being metered?
On the Business plan. Free allows 120 minutes a month and Pro 1,800; Business is listed as unlimited transcription, though file uploads and AI summaries stay capped at 200 each.
Where can I use it?
A web app, desktop builds for Mac and Windows, mobile apps for both phone platforms, and a Chrome extension. The recorder handles Zoom and Google Meet, plus Teams and Webex.
