How Hosiqo compares and tests toolsFinal recommendation
Shortlist Fireflies when sales call capture and crm logging matters most, and Klu when teams that want meeting follow-ups auto-assigned and routed into slack or notion matters most. Run both through a week of actual calls to see which suits your workflow.

AI meeting notetaker and automation platform that records, transcribes, and summarizes meetings, then logs outcomes and action items to CRMs and team tools.
Fireflies.ai joins video calls to record and transcribe meetings, then generates AI summaries, action items, and fully searchable notes. Its AskFred assistant lets you query past meetings in natural language ("what did we decide about pricing?"), while conversation-intelligence features add topic trackers, talk-time, and sentiment analytics. Fireflies works across Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, and Webex, transcribes in a wide range of languages, and integrates natively with CRMs such as Salesforce and HubSpot plus Slack, Notion, Asana, and Zapier. A free plan covers limited transcription and AI credits for individuals; paid tiers raise transcription and storage limits and unlock team conversation analytics, making it a strong fit for sales, recruiting, and customer-research teams that live in their CRM.

Klu (klu.so) is an AI meeting assistant that positions itself as a meeting automation platform for modern teams rather than a transcription-only tool. It captures meetings through a browser extension that can auto-join calls, a Mac desktop app, and offline capture for in-person conversations. During and after a meeting, Klu produces a transcript with speaker recognition, generates bullet-point summaries, surfaces action items, and supports custom note sections, alongside a smart-search and Ask AI capability for retrieving details from past conversations. A Deep Dive feature lets users ask questions that span multiple meetings, such as what was committed to with a particular account over a period of time. On the workflow side, Klu detects follow-ups, assigns them to owners with deadlines, and can push them into tools like Slack and Notion. For CRM users, Klu logs meeting outcomes to HubSpot, Salesforce, and Pipedrive on the relevant record, and connects to additional CRMs such as Attio and Affinity through Zapier, helping keep deals and accounts current without manual data entry. It maintains comparison pages against established notetakers and supports multilingual transcription. Pricing varies by plan. Check the official website for current pricing.
