How Hosiqo compares and tests toolsFinal recommendation
Shortlist Carv when transcribing and summarizing candidate interviews hands-free matters most, and DepoIQ when insurers, tpas, and special investigation units reviewing euos and claim records for inconsistencies matters most. Run both through a week of actual calls to see which suits your workflow.

Carv is an AI platform for recruiters that records, transcribes, and takes notes during interviews, intake calls, and hiring meetings so recruiters can stay present in the conversation rather than typing notes. During candidate interviews it captures a full verbatim transcript, flags any planned questions that went unanswered at the end of the call, and uses the transcript to auto-generate a candidate profile. For intake calls with hiring managers, Carv captures the requirements discussed and can automatically draft a job description in the recruiter's own style and tone of voice. Beyond note-taking, Carv positions itself as an agentic recruiting assistant that takes over repetitive administrative work, from document creation to updating the applicant tracking system, and includes an AI companion that carries context about how the user works. The platform integrates with ATS and HR systems and offers analytics and insights across recruiting activity. By turning recruiting conversations into structured notes, profiles, and documents, Carv aims to cut down on coordination and admin time so recruiters can focus on connecting with candidates and hiring managers. Pricing varies by plan. Check the official website for current pricing.

DepoIQ is an AI-powered claims and litigation intelligence platform built around legal depositions and Examinations Under Oath (EUOs). It ingests recorded testimony alongside medical records and billing documents, organizing them into a unified, searchable claim file. The platform captures testimony through uploaded transcripts and video, and also supports remote examinations conducted over Zoom with real-time transcription via its Examination Hub. From this material, DepoIQ generates structured summaries with page-line references, automatically flags contradictions and admissions, and connects testimony patterns across claimants, witnesses, and experts. Its "Ask DepoIQ" feature lets users run natural-language queries across all depositions, records, and EUOs without manual review. The company describes a proprietary "Large Behavioral Model" that analyzes linguistic, structural, and temporal patterns and extracts behavioral features from video, audio, and natural language to support credibility assessment. DepoIQ is aimed at insurers, third-party administrators, Special Investigation Units, and defense litigation law firms handling complex claims.
