How Hosiqo compares and tests toolsFinal recommendation
Shortlist Adobe Podcast when transcribing a recorded interview or conversation and editing it down by editing the text matters most, and Intelligent Summary+ when legal teams generating issue-organized deposition memos for briefing and trial prep matters most. Run both through a week of actual calls to see which suits your workflow.

Adobe Podcast is a browser-based audio recording, transcription, and editing tool from Adobe. Its Studio records high-quality audio solo or with remote guests, capturing each participant as an individual track, then transcribes every word using the same transcription engine as Adobe Premiere Pro. The result is a text-based editing workflow: once a recording is transcribed, you cut, copy, paste, and delete words in the transcript and the corresponding audio (or video) is edited to match, so you edit sound like a document. It supports speaker detection to automatically label different speakers in the transcript. Beyond editing, it includes Enhance Speech to remove background noise and echo, and Mic Check, an AI analysis that diagnoses microphone problems before recording. It is aimed primarily at podcasters and creators producing spoken-word audio and video, but its transcription, speaker labeling, and voice-to-text capabilities make it usable for turning any recorded conversation into editable text. Adobe Podcast runs in the browser, with full Studio recording and editing officially supported in desktop Google Chrome.

Intelligent Summary+ is an AI-powered deposition summarization service from Esquire Deposition Solutions, launched May 30, 2024. Rather than capturing audio itself, it ingests completed deposition transcripts — including transcripts not produced by Esquire — and uses patent-pending AI built on external Large Language Model providers to analyze them. The output is a single DOCX document containing the full transcript alongside several layers of analysis: a Deposition Abstract encapsulating the proceeding, one to five pages of extracted Key Admissions, a Page/Line Summary organized by topic with hyperlinked page/line citations back to the source dialogue, and a Deposition Memo that organizes the summary thematically around key legal and factual issues. The system parses deponent names and gender pronouns and applies two layers of human quality control. Esquire states the platform is SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001:2013 certified, and HIPAA compliant, and that data is not retained for AI training. It targets litigators and legal teams assessing, preparing, briefing, and trying cases, with same-day turnaround available for transcripts received during business hours.
