Overview

Krisp is an AI noise cancellation application that filters background noise from both the microphone input and the audio coming from other call participants in real time, making it effective for users working in noisy environments and for hearing clearly when the other side of a call has background noise. The noise suppression model runs locally on device using the CPU, not cloud processing, ensuring that audio data never leaves the user's computer, an important distinction for organizations with security requirements around call recordings. Krisp supports all major conferencing platforms (Zoom, Teams, Google Meet, Webex) and VoIP clients by appearing as a virtual microphone and speaker in system audio settings. The AI Accent Localization feature helps non-native speakers be understood more clearly by adjusting speech characteristics for the local accent of the listener.

Meeting Transcription captures and transcribes call audio locally. The free tier provides 60 minutes of noise cancellation per day. Pro plans at $16/month provide unlimited noise cancellation, AI transcription, and meeting notes. Krisp's strong suit is the breadth of platform compatibility and the local processing model, it works with any application that uses a system microphone, requiring no integration by the conferencing platform.

Our Take

The on-device noise suppression filters both what your mic sends and what you hear from others, and it works across any communication app without special integrations. The free plan's 60-minute daily cap is enough to evaluate it, but professionals taking more than one call a day will hit that ceiling fast and need to weigh the $8 per user per month against how often background noise is actually a problem.
