Lumen Trust Notes
Otter.ai
Meeting audio and transcripts are processed and stored on Otter.ai cloud servers; no on-premise option exists for standard plans, which is a key consideration for legally sensitive discussions. The generous free tier and accessible pricing reflect genuine parity, and the core use case — reducing note-taking burden — is straightforward and valuable. Recommended for team meetings and interviews, but avoid using it for legally privileged or regulated conversations without reviewing Otter's data processing agreement.
DeepL
Translations are processed on DeepL's infrastructure; Pro plans emphasise that texts are not used to train models—still cloud-based, so Privacy is Low for free/default use and Medium-leaning only with Pro contractual assurances (scored Low for consistency with cloud-only rules). Strong free tier supports High parity. Purpose is High for accurate cross-language communication. Provenance Low. Prefer Pro for confidential documents and review DeepL's enterprise DPA.
