How Hosiqo compares and tests toolsFinal recommendation
Shortlist Fieldy when capturing notes from in-person client or sales meetings matters most, and TongueType when transcribing recorded audio or video files locally, such as meeting or interview recordings matters most. Run both through a week of actual calls to see which suits your workflow.

TongueType is a privacy-focused macOS voice dictation app that turns speech into text on-device using a local Whisper AI model.
Fieldy is a wearable AI note taker built for capturing real-world, in-person conversations and meetings rather than only online calls. The device is a small clip-on or pendant-style wearable that can be worn around the neck or on the wrist, capturing audio hands-free or via a button press. Once a conversation is captured, Fieldy's companion app transcribes the speech, automatically splits longer recordings into segments, and generates concise summaries. It can extract action items and reminders from what was said, and it offers an AI chat interface so users can search and ask questions about their past conversation history. Because it does not depend on a meeting bot joining a video call, Fieldy is aimed at people whose important discussions happen face to face, such as professionals in field roles, sales and client-facing workers, students, and anyone who wants a record of hallway chats, errands, and one-on-one meetings. It pairs the convenience of an always-available recorder with AI summarization so users can stay present in a conversation instead of taking manual notes. Pricing varies by plan. Check the official website for current pricing.
Best suited for
TongueType is a voice dictation application for macOS that converts speech to text entirely on-device using a locally-run Whisper AI model, so audio never leaves the Mac. It lives in the menu bar with no dock icon, and works as a press-to-talk input method: the user holds a configurable hotkey (or uses a double-tap latch), speaks, and the transcribed text is inserted at the cursor in any application that accepts text input. Beyond live dictation, it can transcribe audio and video files (such as WAV, MP3, MP4, and MOV). It supports multiple languages including English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Chinese, and Korean, with automatic language detection, plus customizable post-processing rules, overlay appearance, and microphone options. Preferences can sync across Macs via iCloud. It requires macOS 14+ on Apple Silicon (M1 or later). The app is aimed at people who want faster text entry than typing, professionals needing quick transcription, and users with typing difficulties (arthritis, RSI, tremor, and similar accessibility needs).
