Reviewers largely see Krisp as a reliable meeting utility built around excellent background-noise removal, with many saying it works especially well in chaotic home, travel, or shared-work settings. They also praise its bot-free recording, strong transcripts, summaries, and action items, plus support for different meeting apps and easy setup. The main complaints are less frequent but concrete: occasional lag, random restarts or over-eager meeting detection, voice quality that can sound unnatural, limited integrations or API access, and uneven customer support, with one notably bad billing dispute.

Hey PH!
We launched Accent Conversion for meetings back in March. People loved it, but we kept hearing the same request: "Can I use this on YouTube?"
So we went and looked. Pick any popular lecture by a non-native English speaker and scroll to the comments. It's always the same: "Can't understand what he's saying." "Had to watch at 0.75x." "Captions are completely wrong."
Millions of views. Brilliant speakers. Huge chunk of the audience rewinding or just leaving.
That felt wrong. The content is right there. The only thing in the way is accent clarity. So we packaged our on-device AI into a free Chrome extension.
Open a YouTube video, toggle it on, speech gets clearer. That's it.
Ask me anything, I'm here all day.
@asti_pili Have you tested how well it handles diverse accents like Indian English in tech talks or Indian-accented creators on YouTube? As someone in India watching global content daily, that could be a game-changer for accessibility here.
Krisp
@swati_paliwal Yes, that exactly what this is for. The extension works across accents however it delivers best results on Indian, Filipino, Chinese-Mandarin, Latin American accents.

@asti_pili I've been using Krisp for noise cancellation on calls for a while. Didn't know they had accent tech too. The YouTube extension is a nice way to try it
Krisp
@maria_anosova Yeah, unlike our app for meetings this one takes just a second to try out for real.

@asti_pili Congrats on the launch! This is exactly what YouTube needed, finally being able to actually understand brilliant non-native speakers without rewinding every 10 seconds.
Does the accent converter also work well on videos that have background music or sound effects?
Krisp
thanks, Olia! 😊 It should help cut out some background noise like music or chatter. Give it a try and let us know how it goes for you!
@asti_pili This is interesting, but isnt this realtime conversion adding latency and also expensive ? How is it free?

Most tools focus on captions, but real-time accent normalization in audio addresses a different problem! Curious how it handles heavily accented technical content like coding tutorials or medical lectures where vocabulary matters as much as clarity. Congrats on the launch, team Krisp!
Krisp
@jasonhowie yeah, give it a spin - it's really easy to setup from chrome extension store
We are Curious how natutal the converted voice sounds across different accents. does it preserve the speaker’s tone or lean more neutral?
Krisp
@laylabell Good question. The Idea is to keep speakers voice unchanged, however there are numerous subtleties to voice, like emotion, noise, etc...The challenging part is to find the perfect balance in accent conversion and everything-that-is-voice preservation
Cool !! I usually spend half of my time on technical tutorials trying to decipher specific terms that get lost in translation or heavy accents.
Does this handle real time processing well enough ? there is no weird audio lag with the video ? if the sync is tight , this is very useful .
Krisp
@farhan_nazir55 no lag, truly real-time. the latency is under 200ms which is unnoticeable to human ear
love the idea. very useful for native language speakers. what's the accuracy of these models, the cost of a wrong accent can be significant in some use cases like critical meetings.
Krisp
@lokesh_motwani1 true that. it's low latency under 200 milliseconds and high accuracy
Great job Krisp team! This is a life-saver 🤌
btw, what accents does it support?
Krisp
@hrant_sedrakyan2 Thanks!
It support wide range of accents but works the best with Indian, Filipino, Latin American, African, and Chinese-Mandarin accents
Looks Neat! Can we take it beyond meeting rooms ? Can we use this for voice over for my content, with natural emotion ?
Krisp
@raj_peko this extension is for the listener side. But you can use our Krisp voice ai app for creation
