Dextego vs. Gong, Fireflies & AI notetakers
Notetakers tell you what happened.
Dextego changes what happens.
Gong, Chorus, Fireflies, Otter, Fathom and tl;dv all start working when the call ends. Dextego records and summarizes too, but most of its work happens before the call and during it, while the deal can still change.
Where each tool shows up
A deal is won before and during the call.
Every tool here can tell you what went wrong afterwards. Only one is in the room when there is still time to fix it.

Pricing
Replace 3 tools and save about $5,000 a year.
A notetaker only covers what happens after the call. Covering before, during and after takes three separate tools. Here is what that typically costs a 10-rep team, and what it still can’t do.

Dextego Team plan
$12,588
per year, up to 10 users. About $105 per rep per month.
- Recording, transcripts and summaries
- 2,000 AI roleplays a month
- 333 hours a month of live in-call coaching
- Influence Intelligence: every buyer profiled, every relationship scored
29% less than the typical stack, in one tool and one contract.
And even all three tools together won’t replicate Influence Intelligence.
Dextego’s proprietary engine profiles every stakeholder in the deal, scores how well your rep communicates with each one, and carries that profile into roleplays, live cues and scorecards. Separate tools don’t share a model of the buyer, so each one coaches your rep generically.
Comparing with Gong or Chorus? They typically run an estimated $100–200 per rep per month, plus a platform fee and an annual contract, and still only start after the call.
Dextego: ≈$105/rep, no platform fee
Typical seat prices as of September 2026; “up to” figures use the priciest published or reported seat price in each category, for 10 reps per year. Most roleplay and live-coaching vendors are quote-only, so those figures are third-party estimates, and several have minimum contracts that raise the real cost for a 10-rep team.
