Krisp Review

Krisp is an AI meeting assistant that records video calls and in-person conversations, then lets you trim and clip the highlights afterward. It shows a live transcript during the call and does not train its AI on your recordings, though there is no free plan, only a trial.

Research-based review. Features and prices are checked on the vendor's own website, and the score is worked out from those facts. We haven't tested it hands-on yet.

The verdict

Krisp works for individuals and teams wanting meeting notes with a live transcript and easy clip trimming; the lack of a free plan and no open API ask for more commitment upfront.

Pros

  • Krisp works directly at the audio level on your device, so no bot needs to join the call by default.
  • Krisp never uses your meeting data to train its AI models.
  • Unlimited AI note-taking, transcription and recording are included from the Core plan, the cheapest paid tier.
  • MCP integration with Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor is included from the Core plan.

Cons

  • There is no permanent free plan; the only no-cost option is a 7-day trial.
  • Krisp does not currently offer an open API for direct integrations without Zapier.
  • HIPAA compliance with BAA signing is only for Enterprise teams of 100 or more seats, and single sign-on is Enterprise-only.

Why these numbers

Languages it transcribes: The Meeting Recording page and the pricing table both instead say "16+ langs"; the more frequently repeated figure on the dedicated note-taker page was used.

Meeting apps it records: Counted from meeting_platforms. A customer testimonial on the AI Note Taker page also names Webex, but that is not the vendor's own product-page claim, so it was not recorded here.

Keeps the meeting video: Pricing table also lists "Video Recording" as an AI Meeting Assistant line item.

Cuts and shares clips: "Trimming and clipping" is listed as a plan feature row in the Workspace & Collaboration section; no dedicated clips/highlights feature page was found to confirm which plan(s) it starts on.

Talk time and coaching insights: Checked the AI Meeting Assistant plan comparison table, ai-meeting-assistant, ai-meeting-summary and ai-note-taker pages for "talk time", "speaker ratio", "scorecard", "deal insights": no such feature found for the Meeting Assistant product.

Why these numbers

Where it runs: Counted from platforms. Also has a browser extension, not one of the listed platform options; no separate full web app was found.

API: The integrations FAQ says Krisp has no open API. The plan table has an "API Integration" row with no detail, not described as a public API.

Apps it connects to: Counted from integrations. Native Salesforce, HubSpot, Slack and Affinity integrations are Business/Enterprise-tier per the FAQ on that page; everything else routes through Zapier.

Why these numbers

Cheapest paid plan, monthly: Cheapest paid plan on the monthly term. Both the Monthly and Annually ("Save 50%") toggle states were read. Enterprise is custom/quote-only.

Free plan: The only $0 tier is explicitly a 7-day trial, not a tier that costs nothing and never expires; checked the pricing page for "forever"/"free forever"/"always free", no hits.

AI on the cheapest paid plan: AI note-taking, transcription and summaries are unlimited from the cheapest paid (Core) plan, unlike the trial which caps some AI features.

Why these numbers

Does not train AI on your data: Matches the security page: "We always make sure to opt out of any data sharing or training permissions when working with third-party service providers... neither Krisp's data nor that of our customers is ever used for model training purposes."

HIPAA: The plan comparison table lists "HIPAA compliance" and "BAA signing available" as Enterprise-only ("Available for teams with 100+ seats"), matching the security page's note that BAAs are available to the top-tier subscribers only.

Ways to reach support: Counted from support_channels. A help center exists (help.krisp.ai, linked in the site footer) alongside Slack community access on every paid plan; the "24/7" support type (chat/email/phone) is not specified.

How the Spec Score works

Scored from what Krisp publishes on its own site. Not a hands-on test.

Compared with 20 AI meeting assistants. Facts checked 21 Sep 2026.

A fact the vendor does not publish gets half the points, or the typical value for a number, and says so. It never counts as a no. How we score.

Krisp is a meeting assistant that works at the audio level on your own device to cancel background noise, transcribe and summarize calls, with no bot needed to join. It suits people who want that bot-free approach as the default, and what decides fit is that there is no permanent free plan, only a 7-day trial, before a per-seat paid plan is required.

What is Krisp?

Krisp is made by Krisp Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation with its registered address in Berkeley, California. This review covers Krisp's AI Meeting Assistant, a separate product from Krisp's Call Center AI and Developer Voice AI offerings. It runs as desktop apps for Windows and Mac, mobile apps for iOS and Android, and a browser extension for supported browsers.

What Krisp captures from a meeting

Krisp works directly at the audio level on your device, so no bot needs to join your call; a Bot option also exists for platforms like Zoom, where it appears as a participant instead. It works with Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet and Slack Huddles, and covers in-person and hybrid meetings too, using the desktop app for online calls and the mobile app for in-person conversations.

Transcription covers 17 or more languages, with a live transcript shown during the call. Krisp records both audio and video, and its AI chat can answer questions about a single meeting or search across past meeting summaries. Meeting notes and transcripts can sync into Salesforce, HubSpot, Pipedrive and Affinity.

Working with other people

Team membership is unlimited on every plan, with workspace sharing, centralized action items and meeting folders and tags for organizing calls together. Krisp connects to tools including Salesforce, HubSpot, Pipedrive, Affinity, Slack, Notion, Asana, Trello, ClickUp, Confluence, Airtable and Microsoft Teams, plus more through Zapier. Krisp does not currently offer an open API for direct integrations. It does offer MCP integration with Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor from the Core plan.

Krisp pricing: what each plan gives

Krisp pricing screenshot
Krisp, Pricing

Krisp has no permanent free plan; the only no-cost option is a 7-day free trial that includes unlimited transcription, noise cancellation, recording and AI notes, with limited AI accent conversion.

Core costs $16 per user per month ($8 per user per month billed annually) and includes unlimited AI note-taking, bot-free transcription, and audio and video recording, along with 10 GB of storage and accent conversion capped at 1 hour a day per side. Advanced costs $30 per user per month ($15 per user per month billed annually). An Enterprise plan adds single sign-on with SCIM, and HIPAA compliance with BAA signing for teams of 100 or more seats.

Privacy and security

Krisp never uses your meeting data to train its AI models. It is SOC 2 Type II certified. Customers can request or delete all their data by email under Krisp's GDPR and data retention policy. Single sign-on using SAML v2 is available on the Enterprise plan. Krisp is committed to safeguarding protected health information in line with HIPAA, and Business Associate Agreement signing is available to Enterprise customers with 100 or more seats. Support includes 24/7 access plus Slack community access on every paid plan, escalating to a dedicated account manager on Enterprise.

Who Krisp suits

Krisp suits people who want noise cancellation and transcription that runs at the audio level on their own device by default, with a bot only used when a platform needs one. It also suits teams that already use Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor and want an MCP connection into their meeting data from the entry-level paid plan.

It suits less well anyone looking for an ongoing free tier, since Krisp only offers a 7-day trial before payment is required, or a team that needs an open API for custom integrations, since Krisp does not offer one. Teams under 100 seats that need HIPAA compliance will find it reserved for larger Enterprise teams, and single sign-on is Enterprise-only.
