Krisp overview

Krisp is a desktop application that allows you to remove any background noise in real-time calls.

Krisp is a virtual microphone/speaker driver. As such it sits between the device microphone/speaker and calling/messaging/conferencing apps such as Skype and acts as a proxy.

Powered by krispNet Deep Neural Network, Krisp is trained to recognize and reduce background noise from real time audio by leaving only human speech in it. Supports 600+ different apps such as Skype, Zoom, Discord, Webex, QuickTime, Audacity, Loom, etc. Virtually any app which allows changing microphone/speaker from its audio settings.

Likewise, Krisp can be used with any headphones, speakers and microphones of your choice, both wired and wireless.

Created for the remote professionals, digital nomads, podcasters, freelancers and any other 21st-century privacy-conscious individual, Krisp is designed with privacy in mind. All the audio processing happens on your device and never leaves the boundaries of your device.

Krisp also will help boost productivity for remote teams who communicate with customers and have remote conferences on a daily basis.

Krisp cancels noise bi-directionally, removing noise going from you to other call participants as well as noise coming from other call participants to you.

Krisp is great because it works with:

Any communications app
Any headsets or headphones
Any microphones and speakers

To make sure everyone benefits from Krisp, we have tailored plans both for individuals and teams.

Updated on Feb 27 2023

Improvements:

The Background Voice Cancellation is vastly enhanced for all users. More specifically, this version brings:

improved differentiation between primary and secondary speakers, as well as less adaption time required for both of them,
enhanced level of voice-keeping for the primary speaker and voice cancellation for the secondary speaker,
better support of poor and low bandwidth devices,
better performance for Bluetooth devices,
improved Noise Cancellation quality especially when the CPU is under high load.

Bug fixes:

We fixed the cases when Krisp would freeze after a period of device inactivity while causing high CPU usage.
We also fixed the case when Krisp widget would freeze on the screen, passing no audio stream to the communication apps while causing high CPU usage.

Why does an app with no star ratings show 4.2 Stars? Why does an app get listed as Free when it isn't? sketchy.

I think that developers have an ethical obligation to make sure there is more transparent cost information on MacUpdate. Maybe it is because it was a public beta before the official app release in June and the cost hasn't been updated in the following 3 months. I am not posting a rating because I'm not interested in spending the type of money for my personal use. It may be great and worth the price for someone else, just not for me. At the top right of the MacUpdate page for this product, it currently says this: Free (5 stars) 5.0 Go to reviews (0) So a perfect rating, with no reviews. Free but actually $20 a month. A couple of reviews on other websites from June when this app was officially released... https://techcrunch.com/2019/06/12/krisps-smart-noise-cancelling-gets-official-release-and-pricing/ "It works — I’ve tested it, as have thousands of other users during the beta. But now comes the moment of truth: will anyone pay for it? The new, official release of the app will let you mute the noise you hear on the line — that is, the noise coming from the microphones of people you talk to — for free, forever. But clearing the noise on your own line, like the baby crying next to you, after a two-week trial period, will cost you $20 per month, or $120 per year, or as low as $5 per month for group licenses. You can collect free time by referring people to the app, but eventually you’ll probably have to shell out." https://www.zdnet.com/article/krisp-strips-out-background-noise-from-desktop-voice-and-video-chats/ "Krisp costs $20 per month for individuals and slides to $5 per month for teams. The company behind Krisp is also offering a referral promotion that can earn users up to six months of usage credit."
