How Hosiqo compares and tests toolsFinal recommendation
Shortlist Genio when university students recording and reviewing lectures matters most, and Kixie when managers coaching reps live mid-call via whisper or barge matters most. Try them side by side on real calls before deciding — needs vary by team.

Genio, formerly known as Glean, is an assistive note-taking platform that helps students capture and learn from lectures and classes. It records class audio and provides live captions during the session, then generates a full transcript afterward, letting students focus on understanding rather than frantically writing notes. Genio lets learners add their own notes, organize material with AI-generated outlines, import slides and reading material, and review with study features such as quizzing, tying recorded audio together with class content. The platform is widely used by students, including learners with specific learning difficulties, and is adopted by educational institutions that provide it as a study and accessibility support tool. It works online or offline across devices, which suits classroom and lecture-hall environments. Genio is positioned as a mainstream learning tool that also supports accessibility needs. It is actively operating in 2025 and 2026, reporting use by well over a hundred thousand students and more than a thousand institutions, with active sign-in, pricing, and ongoing product development. Pricing varies by plan. Check the official website for current pricing.

Kixie is an AI-powered communications platform for revenue teams that pairs high-volume outbound dialing with conversation intelligence and live call coaching. Its multi-line PowerDialer can auto-dial up to ten numbers in parallel, while AI human voice detection distinguishes real people from voicemail greetings, and ConnectionBoost uses local presence and spam-risk mitigation to improve pickup rates.

Live Call Coaching lets managers listen, whisper, or barge into active calls in real time, and an AI assistant called Kai surfaces insights across calls. Calls, texts, outcomes, and recordings are logged automatically to connected CRMs, and Kixie integrates with HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, Zoho, and other systems. Compliance tooling checks Do Not Call lists. Kixie is a live, operating product as of 2025/2026, marketed to CRM-first sales teams that want a power dialer with built-in AI coaching.
