How Hosiqo compares and tests toolsFinal recommendation
Shortlist Carv when transcribing and summarizing candidate interviews hands-free 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.

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.

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.
