    Quick Take

    Privacy-first meeting assistant with industry-leading noise cancellation and accent conversion. Audio processing happens locally on-device for noise cancellation. Explicitly states meeting data is NEVER used to train AI. HIPAA BAA now available on Enterprise tier only (minimum seats required). No nonprofit discount program, but excellent for remote teams in noisy environments. Tiers renamed in 2025: Pro → Core, Business → Advanced.

    Policy Snapshot

    As of 2026-03-23
    Data Training

    Never

    Krisp explicitly states: 'Your meeting data is never used to train Krisp's AI models.' All third-party AI providers (Azure, Anthropic, Groq, Nebius) are contractually prohibited from training on user data. Privacy policy updated March 4, 2026 reaffirms this.

    Opt-Out

    Not needed

    Training on user data is prohibited by design. No opt-out mechanism required because training never occurs.

    Human Review

    Possible

    Krisp Customer Care team may access account content for support requests. Technical team may access servers temporarily for debugging (all actions logged for 2 years). Users review all AI-generated notes before sharing.

    Retention

    7 days

    Free tier retains meeting notes/history for 7 days only. Audio deleted immediately after transcription. Users can request deletion via [email protected].

    Security

    On-device noise cancellation

    Noise cancellation processed locally — audio never leaves device. AES-256 encryption at rest, TLS 1.2 in transit for any cloud data. Hosted on AWS in VPC.

    Free Trial gives 7 days of premium access; after that, limited free plan has 60 min/day noise cancellation and 2 notes/day. Core ($8/mo annual) unlocks unlimited. HIPAA BAA now requires Enterprise tier (not Advanced/Business).

    Free Trial: 7-day premium access, then limited ongoing plan. Core: Full unlimited features, on-device noise processing. Advanced: Adds Salesforce, accent conversion, advanced admin controls. Enterprise: SSO/SCIM, BAA, HIPAA compliance, on-device transcription.

    No nonprofit discount available. Healthcare organizations need Enterprise tier for HIPAA BAA (minimum seats required) — BAA no longer available on the mid-tier plan.

    Key Distinctions

    On-device noise processing

    Noise cancellation happens locally on your device — audio never leaves your computer. Industry-leading privacy for sensitive conversations.

    Explicitly no training on your data

    Krisp clearly states: 'Your meeting data is never used to train Krisp's AI models.' All third-party AI providers (Azure, Anthropic, Groq, Nebius) also contractually prohibited from training. Reaffirmed in March 2026 privacy policy update.

    Bot-free operation

    Works as a virtual microphone/speaker at the audio layer. No visible bot joins your meetings. Less intrusive than competitors like Otter or Fathom. (Bot-based transcription via Recall.ai is available optionally for online meetings.)

    HIPAA BAA now Enterprise-only

    BAA signing moved to Enterprise tier only (custom pricing, minimum seats required). Previously available on the Business/Advanced tier. Healthcare organizations should verify seat minimums before budgeting.

    Tier renaming in 2025

    Pro plan renamed to Core ($8/mo annual), Business plan renamed to Advanced ($15/mo annual). Prices unchanged. Enterprise remains custom. Feature sets also expanded with accent conversion and mobile app.

    No nonprofit discount

    Unlike Otter.ai and some competitors, Krisp has no TechSoup or formal nonprofit discount as of March 2026. Not listed on Goodstack. Volume pricing may be available for large teams — contact sales.

    2026-02-17

    Krisp AI Note Taker press release (Feb 17, 2026) announced expanded AI Meeting Suite with accent conversion as a core feature. Over 130 million calls transcribed to date.

    Privacy for Humans page updated (December 9, 2025). Updated subprocessor list and security documentation.

    2025-10-01

    Krisp Mobile App launched for iOS and Android. Enables AI meeting notes for in-person meetings and on-the-go use.

    2025-03-01

    Accent Conversion feature (real-time speaker accent normalization) expanded to AI Meeting Assistant tiers. Core tier gets 1hr/day; Advanced gets 4hr/day speaker-side + unlimited listener-side.

    Added Ask Krisp AI chat feature for querying meeting content.

    Bottom Line

    For organizations with 5+ staff

    Core tier at $8/mo (annual) is excellent value for unlimited transcription with best-in-class privacy. Advanced ($15/mo) adds Salesforce integration and advanced admin controls. Note: HIPAA BAA now requires Enterprise (custom pricing) — budget accordingly if in regulated industries. No nonprofit discount available.

    For organizations with fewer than 5 staff

    Core at $8/mo (annual) is the sweet spot. The free plan's 2 notes/day and 7-day limit makes it testing-only after the initial 7-day trial. Industry-leading noise cancellation and new mobile app are strong advantages for remote or field-based staff.

    For health data or vulnerable populations

    Enterprise tier now required for HIPAA BAA (minimum seats apply, custom pricing). On-device transcription on Enterprise provides maximum privacy. Bot-free operation protects interviewee privacy. Advanced and Core tiers do NOT offer BAA — this is a significant change from prior year when Business tier included BAA.
