How Hosiqo compares and tests toolsFinal recommendation
Shortlist BuildBetter when product teams aggregating customer-call insights into jira, linear, or notion matters most, and Koncert when managers coaching reps from recorded calls and a remote salesfloor matters most. Test each on your own meetings; the right choice tends to become obvious quickly.

AI sales dialer with call recording and conversation intelligence, plus an AI PitchLab roleplay add-on for cold-call practice.
BuildBetter offers BB Recorder, a no-bot meeting recorder that captures meetings by recording system audio directly on the device rather than sending a bot into the call. On macOS it can run as a menu-bar (notch-style) recorder, a floating overlay, or a full-window app, and it includes smart auto-detection that begins recording when it detects a call. Recording, transcription, summarization, and even a live AI assistant for asking questions during a call can run locally using on-device models, so notes and transcripts can stay on the user's machine. Users can optionally upload recordings to BuildBetter's cloud for enhanced transcripts with speaker diarization, AI-powered summaries, and team collaboration. The broader BuildBetter platform is oriented toward product teams and customer-facing roles, helping aggregate insights across many calls and route them into tools such as Jira, Linear, and Notion. BB Recorder is available on macOS as well as iOS and Android. It is aimed at product, sales, customer success, and support teams that want privacy-conscious local capture with the option to escalate to cloud-based team features. Pricing varies by plan.

Koncert is a B2B sales engagement platform built around AI-powered dialing, call recording, and coaching for outbound teams. Its dialer suite includes options such as an AI Parallel Dialer and an AI Flow Dialer that filter voicemails and connect reps to live answers to increase connected conversations and connect rates. Calls are recorded and run through conversation intelligence that scans for objections and other signals so managers can coach reps at scale, and a remote Salesfloor gives managers a virtual workspace for real-time coaching during calls. Koncert also includes a multi-channel cadence sequencer spanning phone, email, video, text, and social, plus caller ID management that selects local numbers and monitors number health. For practice and training, Koncert offers AI PitchLab, an add-on where reps rehearse pitches against AI-powered buyer personas without the pressure of a live prospect, with objection-handling practice and automatic transcription and scoring of performance. Together these capabilities target outbound sales teams, SDRs, and managers who want dialing, real-call analysis, and structured roleplay practice within one platform. Pricing varies by plan. Check the official website for current pricing.
