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 Listen Labs when enterprise concept and prototype testing with recruited participants matters most. Run both through a week of actual calls to see which suits your workflow.

Enterprise AI customer research platform that recruits participants, runs AI-moderated interviews, and delivers executive-ready insight reports.
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.

Listen Labs is an AI-first customer research platform that automates the qualitative research workflow end to end, from study design and participant recruitment through AI-moderated interviews to insight delivery. Its AI interviewer conducts personalized, in-depth conversations with each participant, asking follow-up questions and understanding context without a human moderator, and the platform supports video, audio, and text formats in 100-plus languages with automatic translation and transcription. Studies can incorporate stimuli such as videos, images, and Figma prototypes, and recruitment draws on a global network of tens of millions of qualified participants, with the option to integrate existing recruitment providers or bring your own audience. Once interviews complete, Listen Labs automatically packages results into executive-ready outputs, surfacing key themes and takeaways, generating personas, and producing highlight reels and slide decks, with turnaround measured in hours rather than the weeks typical of traditional research. The company is venture-backed and reports use by large consumer and technology brands, positioning the platform for enterprises looking to replace or supplement surveys and traditional market research with scalable AI-led interviews. Pricing varies by plan. Check the official website for current pricing.
