Krisp works in both directions
Krisp is unique in that it works both directions. You can set it up to cancel noise on both incoming and outgoing audio, so it can be used to cancel background noise from your microphone going out and from your speakers or headphones coming in. This can really make a difference where you’re working with someone who calls into a video conference using conventional telephony from a noisy office, train or station. Krisp also blocks all acoustic and room echoes which makes it ideal for audio recordings as well.
Krisp can be tuned to be specific to your voice only
One of the issues with Hybrid work is that people will find themselves coming into work only to find themselves on video conference calls with others who are working from home that day. This can result in a cacophony of noise in an open plan office with large numbers of video conferences going on from people’s desks. Call centres often present the same situation. To remedy this, Krisp’s AI engine can be trained to be specific to your voice and cut out all of the other voices around you. This can be toggled on and off given you don’t always want to cut everyone around you out of a call.
Krisp are noise cancellation experts
Krisp are noise cancellation experts – it’s all they do and the evidence is that while noise cancellation in the three leading video conferencing apps works reasonably well, we think Krisp does a better job. This is a specialist field which probably explains why Krisp has little or no competition as a stand-alone noise cancellation app.
