How Hosiqo compares and tests toolsFinal recommendation
Shortlist AmpUp when sales orgs wanting coaching on every call instead of a small reviewed sample matters most, and Meeting Transcriber when recording and summarizing teams, zoom, or webex calls without inviting a cloud meeting bot matters most. Trial each on a few real meetings before you commit — the better fit usually shows fast.

AmpUp is an AI sales coaching and conversation intelligence platform for revenue teams that aims to coach on every call rather than a small sample. Its native notetaker joins meetings automatically across dialer, video, and phone, producing clean structured transcripts, and it can also ingest conversation data from existing platforms such as Gong, Chorus, Fireflies, Fathom, and Granola. The platform organizes coaching around several components: Sales Brain analyzes interaction patterns to identify winning behaviors versus performance gaps; Atlas delivers meeting-prep briefs before calls and coaching debriefs immediately after; Skill Lab generates practice scenarios based on real objections from the current pipeline; and the Notetaker feeds call data back into the coaching loop. AmpUp targets sales coaching at scale, deal execution and pipeline progression, rep onboarding and ramp acceleration, knowledge transfer across teams, and meeting prep with post-call analysis. Because it can sit on top of an existing conversation-intelligence stack or capture calls directly, it can serve as a dedicated coaching layer for teams that already record calls elsewhere. AmpUp is a live, operating product in 2025/2026 and is positioned as a sales/meeting tool rather than a contact-center QA system. Pricing varies by plan.

Meeting Transcriber is an open-source, local-first meeting transcriber for macOS, distributed under the MIT license and developed in the open on GitHub (pasrom/meeting-transcriber) with its own product site at meetingtranscriber.app. It runs as a menu bar application that automatically detects and records calls on Teams, Zoom, and Webex, capturing the meeting app's audio and your microphone as separate tracks so that transcription and speaker separation stay clean. Transcription happens fully on-device using one of three selectable speech-recognition engines: WhisperKit (covering 99+ languages), Parakeet TDT v3 (25 European languages with a small, fast model), or Qwen3-ASR (30 languages, requiring macOS 15+). It performs dual-track diarization and can recognize recurring speakers by storing voice embeddings across meetings and matching them with cosine similarity. After a meeting, it can generate a structured Markdown protocol containing a summary, participants, topics discussed, decisions, tasks, open questions, and the full transcript, using either the Claude Code CLI, any OpenAI-compatible endpoint such as Ollama or LM Studio, or a transcript-only mode with no LLM. Because everything runs locally, audio, transcripts, and summaries stay on the user's Mac. It installs via Homebrew Cask and requires macOS 14.2 or later. Pricing varies by plan. Check the official website for current pricing.
