What is JotMe?
JotMe is a live translation and transcription tool for meetings and events held in more than one language. It listens to the conversation on the user's own device, so no bot joins the call, and shows translated captions in real time across more than 200 languages. JotMe works alongside Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Webex and other platforms, as well as in-person conversations. Live translation can be shared with other people through a link, a QR code or subtitles on camera. During or after a session, users can ask questions about what was said, and JotMe produces speaker-labelled transcripts, notes and summaries in each participant's language. Audio and video files can also be uploaded for transcription. Apps are available for Mac, Windows, iPhone and Android, plus a Chrome extension for Google Meet.
