On-device AI noise cancellation and a bot-free meeting assistant for clean audio.
Last verified · 2026-06-25 · by Moe Ameen
Krisp is an AI voice tool that does two main jobs: it strips background noise out of your microphone and your incoming audio in real time, and it transcribes and summarizes calls without sending a meeting bot into the room. It was founded in 2017 in Yerevan, Armenia (originally as 2Hz) by Davit Baghdasaryan and Artavazd Minasyan, and it built its reputation on doing noise removal entirely in software with machine learning, instead of relying on multi-microphone hardware.
The defining technical choice is that noise cancellation runs on-device — processed on your own machine's CPU rather than via a cloud round-trip. That keeps latency low and means your raw audio isn't shipped to a server just to be cleaned — a real point for anyone who cares about call privacy. Krisp also offers on-device transcription, but that's reserved for its Enterprise tier and developer SDK (shipped in 2024); on the standard Meeting plans, transcription is processed in the cloud. Because Krisp operates at the audio-driver level, it sits underneath whatever app you're in, so it works with Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Slack huddles, and most recording tools without per-app integration.
Around that core, Krisp has grown into a fuller meeting assistant: bot-free transcription, AI meeting notes and summaries with action items, multilingual transcripts, an "Ask Krisp" chat over your meeting history, and accent conversion that reshapes spoken English toward a more neutral, easier-to-parse delivery. It also sells call-center and developer (SDK) tiers for teams that want the voice models embedded in their own stack.
One thing to be clear about: Krisp is a voice and audio layer, not a content generator. It makes what you record sound clean and gives you a usable transcript. It does not write captions in your brand voice, cut your podcast into shorts, design a carousel, or publish anything. That production step is a separate job from the recording step.
Krisp's value to a creator is upstream: it fixes the input. A podcast recorded in a noisy room, an interview over a bad connection, a talking-head take with an AC humming in the background — Krisp removes that noise before it's ever baked into the file. That matters more than it sounds, because everything downstream inherits the audio quality. Garbage-in audio means a worse Whisper transcription, captions full of misheard words, and clips that sound amateur. Run the recording through Krisp first and the file you bring into Kompozy is already clean.
That clean file is exactly what Kompozy is built to turn into a content operation. Drop the denoised recording into Kompozy and it does the part Krisp doesn't touch: it transcribes for accuracy, detects the strongest moments and cuts them into vertical Clipped Shorts, burns in on-brand captions, and fans the same source into a week of cross-platform content — short video for TikTok, Reels, and YouTube Shorts, plus quote cards, a text thread, a blog draft, and a newsletter written in your voice through the Persona Brief. Then it schedules and publishes the set across all nine supported platforms from one queue. Krisp makes the recording sound professional; Kompozy makes it into the posts.

Yes. Krisp operates at the audio level beneath your apps, so it works with Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Slack huddles, and most recording and conferencing tools without a per-app integration.
Krisp has a free entry point with daily limits and a trial of its paid Meeting AI plans. Paid Meeting tiers start at Core ($16/user per month, or $8 billed annually) and Advanced ($30/user per month, or $15 annually), with custom Enterprise pricing. Check krisp.ai/pricing for current terms before committing.
No. Krisp cleans audio and produces transcripts, notes, and summaries — it does not write captions, cut clips, design carousels, or publish anything. To turn a clean recording into captioned clips, carousels, and scheduled posts, pair it with a content engine like Kompozy.
Record with Krisp running to remove noise at the source, then bring the clean file into Kompozy. Kompozy transcribes it, cuts vertical shorts, burns in branded captions, and fans the source into quote cards, text, a blog, and a newsletter — then schedules and publishes them across nine platforms.
