How Hosiqo compares and tests toolsFinal recommendation
Shortlist Anarlog when engineers and developers wanting private, bot-free meeting notes matters most, and MeetFlow when tracking decisions and follow-up tasks across recurring meetings matters most. Try them side by side on real calls before deciding — needs vary by team.

Norwegian-built AI meeting assistant with Nordic-language transcription, agenda suggestions and decision tracking.
Anarlog is an open-source, local-first AI meeting notetaker developed by Fastrepl, Inc., the team behind the project previously known as Hyprnote and Char. It is positioned as an open-source alternative to cloud meeting-notes tools and is designed for people who want to keep meeting data under their own control. Instead of sending a bot into a call, Anarlog captures system audio directly on the user's computer, transcribes it locally, and merges the transcript with short notes the user jots down during the meeting to produce structured, editable summaries with action items. Audio, transcripts, and notes are stored as files on the local disk rather than in an external service, and users can choose between running local AI models or supplying their own API keys for cloud processing. The application is available for Apple Silicon Macs and its codebase is published on GitHub under a GPL license, so it can be inspected, forked, and self-hosted. Anarlog is best for engineers, privacy-conscious professionals, and teams that want bot-free meeting notes with full ownership of their data. Pricing varies by plan.

MeetFlow is an AI meeting assistant developed by a Norwegian company that goes beyond plain transcription to act as an active meeting helper. It transcribes meetings and produces structured summaries and takeaways, while also offering features such as agenda suggestions drawn from prior meetings, decision and task tracking with deadline reminders, and language and sentiment analysis. The platform supports a dozen languages including Norwegian, Swedish and Danish, and can recognize multiple languages used within a single meeting, which suits Nordic teams that mix languages. MeetFlow markets GDPR-conscious, security-minded operation aimed at Nordic businesses, and provides industry-tailored variants for areas such as sales, healthcare and education. A free trial is available without requiring a credit card. The product positions itself as a meeting-intelligence layer that builds a project history and knowledge base over time rather than only delivering a one-off transcript, making it most relevant to Norwegian and broader Nordic organizations that want native-language meeting support combined with ongoing tracking of decisions and follow-ups across recurring meetings. Pricing varies by plan. Check the official website for current pricing.
