Krisp

Overview

Krisp is a voice AI tool that began as real-time noise cancellation and has grown a wider meeting layer around it. Its core sits between your microphone and whatever app you are in, stripping background noise, echo and cross-talk before the audio is ever captured, so a barking dog or a noisy cafe never reaches the call or recording. Around that it adds an AI meeting assistant that transcribes calls and writes notes and action items across apps like Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet and Slack, plus accent conversion and developer SDKs for embedding the noise cancellation in other products. Because it cleans audio live at the source rather than in post, it is built for calls, meetings and streams rather than deep repair of an existing file.

Best for live calls, meetings and streams where noise must be removed in real time.

Krisp's strength is that it removes noise in real time, at the source, so bad audio is never recorded in the first place. That makes it well suited to live calls, meetings and streams and less suited to salvaging a damaged recording after the fact. There is no permanently free plan any more, so trying it means a seven-day window, and the ladder splits three ways between meetings, contact centres and the developer SDKs, which is worth reading before comparing a single price against a single-purpose denoiser.
