Dextego vs. Gong
Gong tells you what happened. Dextego changes what happens.
Gong records your calls and tells leadership what happened across the pipeline. Dextego coaches the rep while the buyer is still on the line, so the moment is saved instead of reviewed. Keep Gong for the forecast if you love it. Add Dextego and win the conversation itself.

Picture the call
Minute 22. The CFO goes quiet after the pricing slide. Gong will flag that silence in tomorrow's recap. Dextego flags it now: "She's a high C. Stop selling, show the payback math, ask what she needs to see to sign off." The rep adjusts, the CFO leans back in, and the deal moves forward on the same call.
What Dextego adds that a call recorder can't
Before the call, Dextego profiles every stakeholder with DISC and OCEAN (Big Five) from public data and gives your rep a Compatibility Score with each one, so they know who will be hardest to win and how to approach them.
During the call, Tego, the live coach, prompts the rep on screen as the buyer talks: the next question to ask, the objection to handle, the stakeholder going quiet. The desktop widget is hidden from screen share, so the buyer never sees it.
After the call, every conversation gets an Influence Score out of 10 across Probing questions, Objection handling, Empathy and Gravitas, with the transcript moments that earned it. Then the rep practices the next call against a roleplay of that exact buyer.

Which one do you need?
When Gong is enough
You only need forecasting, deal boards and pipeline inspection, and your reps already win the deals they should.
When you need Dextego
Your reps lose deals in the conversation itself, managers can't review enough calls, or new hires take too long to ramp. Dextego fixes the call, not the report about it.
Proof: Key Outreach took team win rate from 10% to 16% in 3 months with the same 13 reps, a 60% relative lift with no new headcount. Follow ups went from 10 minutes to 10 seconds, giving each rep about 5 hours back every week. Read the Key Outreach case study
Proof: Alfa AI coached live demos with Dextego and took demo to use case conversion from 22% to 38%: 1.7 times more use cases from the same demos. Read the Alfa AI case study
