Scriptal vs Chorus.ai
Chorus.ai (now part of ZoomInfo) is an enterprise conversation intelligence platform. Scriptal is a simple transcript library. They solve different problems at very different price points.
Let's Be Honest
Chorus is more powerful
Chorus (now ZoomInfo) records calls in real-time, integrates directly with Salesforce, provides deal intelligence and forecasting, offers coaching scorecards, and is built for enterprise sales teams. It's a comprehensive conversation intelligence platform backed by ZoomInfo's data.
Chorus is expensive and complex
Chorus pricing typically starts at $100+/user/month with annual contracts. For a 10-person sales team, you're looking at $12,000-15,000/year minimum. Plus implementation, training, and the overhead of managing another enterprise tool. You'll need demos, procurement, and IT involvement.
Most people don't need Chorus
If you're a small team, a freelancer, a researcher, or anyone who just has transcripts they can't search—you don't need real-time recording, CRM sync, or deal forecasting. You need a place to put your transcripts and find things in them.

Similar to Gong?
Yes, Chorus and Gong are direct competitors. They're both enterprise conversation intelligence platforms with similar features and pricing. The choice between them usually comes down to which integrates better with your existing tech stack, or which sales team is more convincing.
From Scriptal's perspective, the comparison is the same: if you need enterprise-grade conversation intelligence with real-time recording and CRM sync, Chorus or Gong are your options. If you just need a transcript library that's searchable and gives you insights, Scriptal is 1/10th the price.
The question isn't "which enterprise platform?" It's "do I need an enterprise platform at all?"
