📋 About Krisp
Krisp is an AI-powered noise cancellation and meeting productivity platform developed by the company Krisp, founded by Davit Yanukyan and Arto Minasyan. Launched in 2019 after being founded in 2017, it was purpose-built to solve one of remote work's most frustrating challenges: background noise disrupting professional communication. You can use Krisp across virtually any communication app, including Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Slack, and hundreds of others, making it a universal layer of audio intelligence for modern workers.
Krisp works by running a proprietary deep neural network directly on your device, meaning audio processing happens locally without sending your voice data to external servers. The AI model has been trained on millions of audio samples to distinguish human speech from background noise, allowing it to remove sounds like barking dogs, keyboard clicks, crying children, and street traffic in real time. Because it operates as a virtual audio device at the system level, you can activate it without installing plugins inside individual apps, giving you seamless cross-platform compatibility.
Krisp's three standout features deliver measurable value for professionals. Its Noise Cancellation technology eliminates both background noise and echo simultaneously, working bidirectionally to clean up your audio and the audio of callers on the other end. The AI Meeting Assistant feature automatically transcribes your meetings, generates structured summaries, and highlights action items so you never miss critical follow-ups. Additionally, the Call Center Noise Suppression feature is specifically optimized for high-volume contact center environments, reducing agent stress and improving customer satisfaction scores.
Krisp offers a Freemium model that gives you limited free minutes of noise cancellation each week, making it accessible for casual users who want to test its capabilities before committing. The Pro plan, priced at around $8 per month when billed annually, removes usage limits and unlocks the full AI meeting assistant suite, suiting freelancers, remote employees, and content creators. Enterprise plans offer centralized administration, volume licensing, and dedicated support, making them ideal for contact centers, BPO firms, and large distributed teams.
By 2026, Krisp has become a staple tool for over 7 million users globally, spanning remote workers, call center agents, podcasters, and online educators. Companies running large customer support operations report measurable drops in handle time and improvement in call quality scores after deploying Krisp at scale. You can see its real-world impact most clearly in hybrid work environments, where inconsistent home office setups no longer derail professional calls, helping teams maintain communication standards regardless of physical location.
