Krisp
AI noise cancellation plus a bot-free meeting note taker and summarizer
Last reviewed 2026-06-20
Krisp is a voice AI app that runs real-time noise, echo, and cross-talk cancellation on calls and pairs it with an AI meeting assistant that records, transcribes, and summarizes meetings. It captures audio directly on the device rather than sending a visible bot into the call, then generates transcripts, summaries, and action items and can push notes to tools like Slack, HubSpot, and Salesforce. Krisp also offers real-time accent conversion and a contact-center product, plus a Voice AI SDK for developers. Krisp is best understood as an assistant: it cleans up audio, captures meetings, and produces notes and summaries on request, with the user reviewing and sharing the output. It is not an autonomous agent. Its CRM and app integrations add light supervised workflow behavior (pushing notes and action items on configured rules), but they do not take open-ended action on a user's behalf.

Strengths
- +Industry-leading real-time noise cancellation that works across most conferencing apps
- +Bot-free capture transcribes and summarizes meetings without a visible participant joining the call
- +On-device English transcription option and SOC 2, GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS compliance for privacy-sensitive teams
Limitations
- −Mostly an assistant; the CRM and app integrations need configuration and do not act autonomously
- −Accent conversion is time-capped per day on lower tiers and unsettling to some users
- −Bot-free, device-level capture still raises meeting-consent and recording considerations
Overview
Krisp is a voice AI app that started as best-in-class real-time noise cancellation and has grown into an AI meeting assistant. It removes background noise, echo, and cross-talk from calls, and records, transcribes, and summarizes meetings. It was founded in 2017 in Yerevan, Armenia, by Davit Baghdasaryan and Artavazd Minasyan, and is headquartered in Berkeley, California.
What it does
Krisp's core feature is machine-learning noise cancellation that runs in real time across most conferencing apps. Its AI meeting assistant captures audio at the device level (no visible bot needed), then transcribes and produces structured summaries with key points, decisions, and action items in multiple languages. It also offers real-time accent conversion, which is central to its contact-center product, and a Voice AI SDK for developers. The notes and summaries are produced on demand for the user to review and share, so it functions as an assistant rather than an autonomous agent.
Integrations & setup
Krisp runs as a desktop and mobile app that sits between your microphone and conferencing tools, so it works with Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, Slack Huddles, Webex, and Discord. The meeting assistant connects to Slack, HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, Zapier, and Google Calendar to push notes and action items. The platform reports SOC 2, GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS compliance, and offers on-device English transcription for privacy.
Pricing
Freemium with a 7-day free trial. Meeting AI plans are Core at $8/user/mo (billed annually, $16 monthly), Advanced at $15/user/mo (billed annually, $30 monthly), and an Enterprise tier with custom pricing that adds SSO/SCIM, on-device transcription, and HIPAA compliance. A separate Contact Center AI product starts around $10/agent/mo (billed annually), and developer SDK pricing is custom.
Best for / not for
Best for individuals and teams that want clean call audio plus bot-free meeting capture, and for contact centers wanting noise cancellation and accent conversion. Less suited to anyone who needs deep, autonomous post-meeting workflow automation, or who is uncomfortable with any meeting recording.
Alternatives
