Breakout room conversations often hold the most valuable discussions, but they’re easy to miss. With Otter Notetaker, Otter automatically records and transcribes a Zoom breakout room by joining as a participant. This makes it easy to capture every discussion and ensure no insights are lost. Learn how breakout room recording works with Notetaker and what to expect when using it in Zoom meetings.
Use the Otter Desktop App + Notetaker
If you have multiple breakout rooms, use a combination of the Otter Desktop app and the Otter Notetakers.
- Breakout Room 1: Assign Notetaker #1
- Breakout Room 2: Assign Notetaker #2
- Breakout Room 3: Assign yourself to the room and record using the Otter Desktop App

FAQs
Can I record a breakout room using Otter Live Notes or Cloud Sync?

How to add more Notetakers?
