Snapshot
Krisp is a free Windows utility from Krisp Technologies, Inc. that removes ambient sounds from voice calls using AI. It integrates with communication software so you and the people on your calls hear only the human voice, improving clarity for meetings, streams and recordings.
Noise cancellation in practice
Krisp removes a wide variety of distracting background sounds so conversations stay focused. It filters environmental and household noises such as:
- street traffic and outside commotion
- humming appliances and HVAC systems
- children talking or crying
- barking dogs and other sudden animal sounds
A single click toggles the noise suppression on or off, letting you run quieter conference calls, live streams and remote meetings instantly.
Devices and software compatibility
Krisp works with common audio hardware and hundreds of applications:
- speaker output, headset devices, and microphones
- Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, Zoom and over 800 other apps used for conferencing, recordings and streaming
It also supports Windows 11 and typical home or office setups.
Privacy and processing
All audio filtering is performed locally on your device rather than in the cloud, which helps keep your voice data private and prevents audio from being sent externally for processing.
Plans and licensing
Krisp offers several options depending on how much you use it:
- Enterprise — designed for large organizations such as contact centers, with advanced security, controls and dedicated support
- Teams — tailored for small groups (up to 50 seats) who need shared management and billing

- Free Personal tier — includes a weekly allowance of 120 minutes of microphone and speaker noise removal to try the service without cost
