Zrec vs Woviq: AI Notetakers for Indian Teams Compared

Zrec vs Woviq, side by side: how each records, Hindi and Hinglish support, platforms, pricing and what to test before you choose.

Woviq and Zrec are two of the few AI notetakers built for Indian teams. Both record without a bot joining the call, both understand Hindi and English mixed together, and both price in rupees. The differences are in how they record, which devices they run on, and what you get out at the end. This is a fair Zrec vs Woviq comparison, based on each product's public pages as of 3 October 2026, with a checklist you can use to test either one on a real meeting.

We make Zrec, so read that column with the bias in mind. Everything stated about Woviq comes from Woviq's own website, and where its site says nothing we say "not stated" instead of guessing.

What Woviq does well

Woviq is a real option and, for some teams, the better one. From its public page:

  • More places to run it. It offers a Chrome extension for Google Meet, Zoom and Microsoft Teams in the browser, a web dashboard, a macOS app and an iPhone app. If your team is on Mac or wants a phone app, that matters.
  • Hindi-English code-switching. It says it transcribes Hindi and English mixed together and delivers summaries in English.
  • A long integrations list. WhatsApp, Slack, Notion, Telegram, HubSpot, Zoho CRM, Gmail, Google Calendar and Zapier. If your notes need to land in a CRM automatically, this is a real advantage.
  • Low entry prices. A free tier with 3 summaries a month, then paid plans once you need more.

Where the two differ

How the audio is captured. Woviq says it records "from your own tab and mic", which is a browser-based approach. That works for meetings that run in a Chrome tab. Zrec is a Windows app that captures the computer's sound and microphone directly, so it is not tied to one browser or one meeting app: Zoom and Teams desktop apps, Slack huddles, WhatsApp calls, or a meeting around a table in the room. If you mostly join meetings in desktop apps or record in-person meetings, test this first. If you only use Meet in Chrome, it matters less.

Where it runs. It is Windows only today, with a Mac app coming. Minutes and transcripts open in any browser, including on a phone, but recording needs the Windows app. Woviq covers more devices.

What comes out. Both write summaries and action items. Our minutes are structured as minutes of meeting (MOM): summary, decisions, action items with owners and due dates, and open questions, and each decision links to the exact moment in the recording where it was said. Woviq's page describes summaries, action items and follow-up messages, but does not say whether items link back to the audio.

Consent and deletion. Zrec includes a one-click recording notice to paste in the meeting chat, a deletion link for guests who have no account, and automatic audio deletion after 7 to 365 days. Woviq says recordings and transcripts are never sold or used to train models, and that audio can be deleted after the summary is made. It does not mention a consent notice or a guest deletion link.

Which one fits which team

  • Choose Woviq if your team is on Mac or wants an iPhone app, you live inside Google Meet in Chrome, or you need notes pushed to a CRM, Slack or WhatsApp automatically.
  • Choose Zrec if your team is on Windows, you use desktop meeting apps, you record in-person meetings, or you want proper minutes of meeting where every decision can be checked against the recording.
  • Try both if the meetings are mixed. Both have a free way to start.

How to test either one on your own meetings

One-meeting test

  • Pick one real meeting where people switch between Hindi and English mid-sentence.
  • Run it through both tools and compare names, numbers and dates line by line.
  • Check whether each decision can be traced to the moment it was said.
  • Try a meeting that is not in a browser tab, such as a desktop Zoom call or a room meeting.
  • Look for the consent notice and the deletion controls before you roll it out to a team.
