How Hosiqo compares and tests toolsFinal recommendation
Shortlist BuildBetter when product teams aggregating customer-call insights into jira, linear, or notion matters most, and Voiso when sales and support managers scoring agent performance and coaching from call summaries matters most. Trial each on a few real meetings before you commit — the better fit usually shows fast.
A no-bot meeting recorder (BB Recorder) that captures and processes calls locally on Mac, with optional cloud upload for team collaboration.
Voiso is a cloud contact-center platform with AI speech analytics that transcribes calls into searchable text, scores conversations, and generates automatic call summaries.
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.

Voiso is a cloud-based contact-center platform built for sales and customer-service teams, combining voice, SMS, and messaging channels with AI-driven analytics in a single workspace. Its speech analytics suite processes recorded call audio through speech-to-text and natural-language pipelines, transcribing calls into searchable text across more than ten languages, including English, Spanish, French, and Arabic. Transcripts can be navigated, searched, and flagged against predefined or custom keyword lists to support quality assurance, compliance, and agent training. Beyond raw transcription, the platform applies AI to score conversations on a 1-to-5 scale, detect sentiment and emotional cues, and automatically generate concise call summaries that capture key topics and outcomes without reviewing full recordings. It is aimed at call centers, BPOs, and outbound and inbound teams in industries such as fintech, travel, retail, and e-commerce. Other platform capabilities include a predictive dialer, IVR and routing flow builder, CRM integrations, call recording, and real-time performance dashboards. Speech analytics features are available on its Pro plan and higher.
