How Hosiqo compares and tests toolsFinal recommendation
Shortlist Carv when transcribing and summarizing candidate interviews hands-free matters most, and Nyota when tracking action items and signals across many recurring meetings 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.

Nyota is an AI meeting assistant aimed at busy professionals and managers who want to stay present in conversations while still capturing thorough records. It joins calls on Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams, transcribes the discussion, and produces distilled notes, summaries and action items. Users can choose from a library of more than 20 meeting templates so the generated summary matches the type of meeting, whether a one-on-one, a project sync or a customer call. Beyond basic notes, Nyota is positioned as a tool for managing both projects and people: it brings conversations together in one searchable place, watches for specific signals across discussions, and can help with agenda preparation so recurring meetings stay on track. Getting started involves signing up, connecting a calendar, and either inviting Nyota from the dashboard or adding its meeting address as a participant. It shares notes and action items into a wide range of downstream tools, including Slack, HubSpot, Salesforce, Close, Notion, OneDrive and Google Drive. Nyota is best suited to engineering leaders, team managers and other professionals who run many recurring meetings and want searchable, actionable records connected to their existing workflow tools. Pricing varies by plan. Check the official website for current pricing.
