How Hosiqo compares and tests toolsFinal recommendation
Shortlist AI-Media when adding live captions and translation to corporate virtual meetings, webinars, and town halls on zoom or teams matters most, and HiDock when capturing phone calls and bluetooth-earphone conversations for notes matters most. Test each on your own meetings; the right choice tends to become obvious quickly.

HiDock is a hardware-and-software brand built around capturing meeting audio and turning it into transcripts and summaries through its companion HiNotes service. The product line includes USB-C docking stations such as the H1E and the O1 meeting-room dock, the HiDock P1 voice recorder for Bluetooth earphones, and the P1 mini for capturing phone calls and in-person conversations. The devices capture two-way audio from video calls, phone calls, and face-to-face meetings, including a proprietary BlueCatch technology that records through standard Bluetooth earbuds. Captured audio is sent to HiNotes, which auto-transcribes it and generates AI summaries using tailored templates organized by profession, such as sales, engineering, HR, and education. HiDock markets unlimited AI transcription across many languages, and because recording happens on the device or dock rather than through a meeting bot, no extra participant needs to join the call. The approach suits people who hold in-person or mixed meetings and want a dedicated capture device rather than a browser bot. HiNotes is available as a mobile and web app that turns recordings into searchable, actionable notes. Pricing varies by plan. Check the official website for current pricing.
