How Hosiqo compares and tests toolsFinal recommendation
Shortlist Aloware when outbound sales teams running power-dialed cold-call campaigns with ai analysis matters most, and Amical when capturing voice notes and turning them into summaries and tasks matters most. Trial each on a few real meetings before you commit — the better fit usually shows fast.

Amical is an open-source, local-first AI dictation and voice-notes app that transcribes speech to text on your own machine using Whisper and open-source LLMs.
Aloware is a sales engagement and AI voice platform that combines an automated power dialer with conversation intelligence built for outbound revenue teams. Calls are recorded and automatically transcribed, and Aloware's AI voice analytics detect sentiment trends, track keywords, and generate conversation insights that highlight action items and customer concerns. After each call, the platform can produce custom AI summaries tailored to a team's KPIs, and call-summary search lets managers find relevant moments across many conversations. For coaching, Aloware monitors individual agent performance, compares sentiment across reps, and surfaces opportunities to fix issues or reinforce wins, supported by team performance dashboards. On the engagement side it offers an automated power dialer for lead lists, local presence dialing with area-code matching, voicemail drops, forced dispositions, speed-to-lead automation, and bulk SMS campaigns for list filtering and re-engagement. It also offers 24/7 AI voice agents so leads are not sent to voicemail, plus lead prioritization and smart routing. Aloware integrates with HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, and Zoho. It is a live, operating product as of 2025/2026. Pricing varies by plan. Check the official website for current pricing.

Amical is an open-source, MIT-licensed AI dictation application that turns speech into formatted text directly on your device. It runs OpenAI's Whisper for speech recognition locally and uses open-source LLMs (via Ollama) for intelligent processing, so dictation can work offline once a local model is set up; for machines that can't handle local inference, it offers a cloud fallback. Built with Electron and TypeScript, it runs on Mac and Windows as a desktop app with a floating widget interface and configurable hotkeys. Its standout feature is context-aware formatting: it detects the active application and adapts tone and structure accordingly, producing professional text in email, casual phrasing in chat apps, or prompt and command-style output in IDEs and terminals. It supports many languages plus mixed-language dictation, and custom vocabulary for domain-specific terms. Beyond dictation, it is adding smart voice notes with summaries and task generation. It targets privacy-conscious writers, developers, and professionals wanting a free alternative to paid dictation tools.
