How Hosiqo compares and tests toolsFinal recommendation
Shortlist BuildBetter when product teams aggregating customer-call insights into jira, linear, or notion matters most, and Meetingflow when logging meeting outcomes and updating salesforce or hubspot in one click matters most. Test each on your own meetings; the right choice tends to become obvious quickly.

AI meeting assistant for sales teams, distributed as a Chrome extension, Microsoft Teams/365 add-on, and Slack integration, that records, transcribes, and lets you chat with meetings.
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.

Meetingflow is an AI meeting assistant aimed at sales teams selling to enterprise, distributed across multiple channels including a Chrome extension, a Microsoft Teams and Microsoft 365 add-on via AppSource, and a Slack integration, in addition to a web application. It records and transcribes meetings and generates AI summaries, but its emphasis is on the full sales workflow: preparing for calls, staying engaged during them, and following up afterward. A notable capability is the ability to chat with a meeting transcript using AI, allowing users to ask questions such as recapping a call, identifying objections, or drafting a proposal or follow-up email based on what was discussed. Meetingflow connects to CRMs including Salesforce and HubSpot, enabling one-click updates and meeting logging so that notes and outcomes flow into the systems sales teams already use. It also supports collaborative notes without recording for situations where capture is not appropriate. The product highlights security and compliance credentials such as SOC 2 Type 2, GDPR, and CCPA. Meetingflow is positioned for sellers and revenue teams who want preparation, capture, AI querying, and CRM follow-up combined in one assistant rather than transcription alone. Pricing varies by plan. Check the official website for current pricing.
