Which meeting note apps support Cantonese: Otter, Fireflies, Granola or Audiee?

Audiee and Granola transcribe Cantonese; Otter does not list it; Fireflies does not confirm Cantonese and follows language switches only in a beta mode on its Business and Enterprise plans. Audiee recognizes Cantonese, Mandarin and English in the same meeting and in the same sentence with no language setting, learns the names you correct, and writes the summary in whichever language dominated the meeting; Hong Kong meetings that jump between Cantonese and English figures are the case it was built for. Granola's multi-language mode lists Mandarin and Cantonese among supported languages and is switched on in settings. Otter transcribes six languages, including Simplified Chinese, and Cantonese is not among them. Fireflies lists more than a hundred languages and a Multi-Language Mode that follows switches mid-sentence, but that mode is a beta limited to Business and Enterprise plans, and Cantonese is not confirmed on its list. Audiee is a Mac app with no bot, stores transcripts as Markdown on your Mac, and covers 3 meeting hours a month free. If your meetings are in Cantonese, record one on the free plan and check a passage where someone switches to English mid-sentence.
