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 Lingopal when enabling multilingual meetings and esl conversations between teachers, students, and parents via rooms matters most. Test each on your own meetings; the right choice tends to become obvious quickly.

Lingopal is an AI platform for real-time speech-to-speech translation, transcription, and captioning across live streams, meetings, and phone calls.
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.

Lingopal is an AI translation platform that converts spoken audio into other languages in real time while transcribing and captioning it. Its core technology performs speech-to-speech translation with voice cloning that preserves the original speaker's tone and emotion, alongside live captions and editable transcripts. Beyond its main use in live broadcast and streaming (sports, news, events), Lingopal offers a "Rooms" product that turns meetings into multilingual conversations with live voice translation for one-on-one and group settings, and a separate Call product (call.lingopal.ai) that translates phone calls in real time with live transcript and audio. The platform supports a large set of languages (over 100 across its products, with a smaller subset on the call product) and ingests common broadcast formats such as RTMP, HLS, SRT, and MP4, plus API-based workflows. Typical glass-to-glass latency is roughly 2.5 to 4 seconds. It targets broadcast teams, networks, educational institutions engaging ESL students and parents, faith organizations, and enterprises needing cross-language voice communication.
