How Hosiqo compares and tests toolsFinal recommendation
Shortlist Allo when sales teams that want every outbound and inbound call recorded, transcribed, and logged to the crm automatically matters most, and Spellar AI when consultants generating templated summaries and action items per meeting matters most. Run both through a week of actual calls to see which suits your workflow.

A bot-free AI meeting note taker for Mac, iOS, and web that records on-device and produces transcripts, summaries, and action items.
Allo is an AI-powered business phone system aimed at sales teams, support, and operations that records every call, transcribes it in real time, and syncs the recording, transcript, and an AI-generated summary to a CRM automatically. Positioned as mobile-native and quick to set up, it focuses on letting reps spend time selling rather than logging calls. Each conversation is recorded with consent-message compliance options, transcribed with speaker identification, and condensed into a shareable AI recap. Allo can then draft personalized follow-up emails and SMS based on what was discussed. The platform includes an AI receptionist for answering inbound calls, voicemail transcription, multi-tag organization of calls, and team collaboration features such as cascade ring and warm transfers. Managers can pull call recordings and AI transcripts to find coaching opportunities, while reporting dashboards surface connection rates, conversion tracking, funnels, and heatmaps. Allo integrates with CRMs including HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, Attio, and Apollo, and exposes an MCP endpoint to connect the phone system to AI assistants. It is a live, operating product as of 2025/2026. Pricing varies by plan. Check the official website for current pricing.

Spellar AI is a bot-free meeting note taker built by Spellar LTD for professionals who want their conversations captured without a bot joining the call. The app records directly on the user's Mac, iPhone, or iPad, so no participant appears in the meeting, and it produces transcripts in many languages with intelligent language detection. At the end of each meeting Spellar generates a structured summary that highlights key points and action items, and it offers customizable summary templates so the output can match different meeting types. A distinguishing feature is its model flexibility: users can switch between AI models such as different GPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity options per meeting, per template, or per question, and a real-time copilot can assist during the conversation. Privacy is configurable: server-side transcription is opt-in rather than default, and users can run transcription on-device or bring their own AI key to keep calls private. Spellar syncs across macOS, iOS, and the web, and supports one-click export to tools like Notion, Jira, Linear, and Google Docs. It suits sales reps, consultants, and professionals who want discreet capture plus flexible, exportable meeting notes. Pricing varies by plan. Check the official website for current pricing.
