What Krisp does

Krisp Technologies, Inc. is a Berkeley, California-based voice AI company founded in 2017 that builds a unified voice processing platform spanning noise cancellation, real-time accent conversion, multilingual voice translation, AI meeting transcription and summarization, and voice agent infrastructure. Its product portfolio operates through three distribution lines: AI Meeting Assistant for individual professionals and distributed teams (bot-free meeting transcription, noise cancellation, accent conversion, and CRM-synced action items across Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, Slack Huddles, and Webex); Call Center AI for BPOs and contact centers (accent conversion, voice translation, agent assist, speech analytics, and voice security with deepfake and fraud detection); and developer-facing SDKs and APIs (Voice Isolation, Noise Cancellation, Accent Conversion, and Voice Translation) including the VIVA voice AI infrastructure layer embedded in 130+ voice AI products.

The company's core technology is an on-device voice AI engine that processes audio locally for privacy and latency, paired with cloud-based components for translation and transcription. Krisp processes 75-80 billion minutes of voice conversations monthly across 200+ million devices, and VIVA processes 12 billion minutes of voice AI agent traffic annually. The company is bootstrapped, having raised only $19M in disclosed funding, and as of December 2025 reports $37.7M ARR at a $90.1M valuation.

Krisp monetizes through SaaS subscriptions for individuals and teams (with a 14-day free trial), per-seat enterprise subscriptions for call center deployments (with HIPAA-compliant Business tier and custom pricing), and developer SDK/API licensing. Customer segments span individual professionals, enterprise technology buyers (Siemens, Okta, GitHub, VMware, Autodesk, Cisco, Sony, ServiceTitan, Skechers, Medium), and BPO/contact center operators (Alorica, plus Movate partnership distribution). It holds SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, PCI DSS, and GDPR certifications, with a wholly-owned Armenian subsidiary (Krisp LLC) handling support and maintenance operations.

Core offering

Krisp builds a voice AI platform that delivers on-device noise cancellation, real-time accent conversion, voice translation across 60+ languages, AI meeting transcription and summaries, and voice AI infrastructure (VIVA) for conversational agents. The platform is sold as three separate product lines — an AI Meeting Assistant for individuals and teams, Call Center AI for BPOs and large contact centers, and a suite of developer SDKs/APIs for embedding its voice capabilities into third-party applications.

Product overview

Krisp is a Voice AI platform offering a unified product portfolio across three main lines: AI Meeting Assistant for individuals and teams (providing noise cancellation, accent conversion, AI note-taking, transcription, recording, and summarization), Call Center AI for BPOs and contact centers (offering accent conversion, voice translation, noise cancellation, agent assist, speech analytics, and voice security), and AI Voice SDK for developers (providing Voice Isolation, Noise Cancellation, Accent Conversion, and Voice Translation APIs). All products share Krisp's core AI voice engine for noise cancellation, accent conversion, and real-time transcription, but are installed and licensed separately. The VIVA (Voice Interaction Voice Agent Architecture) platform powers voice AI agent infrastructure with turn-taking and interruption prediction capabilities. Krisp processes over 75 billion minutes of conversations monthly across 200+ million devices.

Direct peers

• Fireflies.ai: Fireflies.ai is a direct peer offering AI meeting transcription, note-taking, and conversation intelligence across Zoom, Teams, Google Meet, and Webex. It competes head-to-head with Krisp's AI Meeting Assistant for SMB and team use cases.
• Avoma: Avoma is an AI meeting assistant and conversation intelligence platform for sales and customer-facing teams. It overlaps with Krisp's AI Note Taker and Call Center AI offerings for meeting capture, transcription, and CRM sync.
• Otter.ai: Otter.ai is the most direct peer in AI meeting transcription, note-taking, and summarization for individuals and teams. Both target Zoom/Teams/Meet users with bot-free or bot-based meeting capture and compete on transcription accuracy and AI summary quality.
• Fathom: Fathom is a free AI meeting note-taker that records, transcribes, and summarizes Zoom/Teams/Meet calls. It is a direct competitor in the PLG meeting assistant category where Krisp's AI Meeting Assistant competes.
• Read AI: Read AI provides AI meeting summaries, transcription, and analytics with cross-meeting intelligence, competing directly with Krisp's AI Note Taker. Both target the same Zoom/Teams/Meet user base with PLG freemium models.

Broad incumbents

• Zoom: Zoom is a broad incumbent with native noise suppression, AI Companion meeting summaries, and transcription. It competes with Krisp at the platform level and could restrict or replicate Krisp's audio-layer integration.
• Microsoft (Teams): Microsoft Teams is a broad incumbent embedding native noise suppression, transcription, and Copilot AI meeting features into its UC platform. It threatens Krisp's SMB/individual PLG wedge by offering similar functionality bundled into enterprise Microsoft 365 subscriptions.

Emerging players

• AssemblyAI: AssemblyAI offers speech recognition and AI audio intelligence APIs with features like speaker diarization, sentiment analysis, and transcription. It competes with Krisp's Voice Translation API and developer-side AI capabilities for embedded use cases.
