Remote Work Essential: The AI Meeting Assistant You Need

Missed notes and wasted time are common problems in remote meetings. Krisp helps to correct it, though. This free AI technology is a Remote Work Essential because it increases productivity and facilitates virtual meetings.

Crystal-Clear Audio with AI Noise Cancellation

Background noise during online meetings can be distracting making it hard to focus on important discussions. That’s why I use Krisp, a must-have for remote work that works on both Mac and Windows.

Krisp offers virtual microphones and speakers that work seamlessly with the majority of conferencing programs. Simply choose them from the settings of your meeting app, and you’ll be ready for distraction-free, clear conversation.

For my meetings, 60 minutes of noise cancellation per day included in the free plan is usually sufficient. In my experience, background noise such as traffic, computer clicks, fan sounds and even some conversations are successfully eliminated by Krisp. It greatly improves the clarity of meetings by filtering out background noise from both my audio & incoming sounds.

Krisp provides a Pro plan with an annual membership that starts at $8 per month if your sessions are longer. Although I find the free plan to be effective, if you have meetings all day, the Pro plan would be helpful.

Stay Focused on the Conversation, Not on Note-Taking

It can be distracting to take notes during meetings, and you might miss important details. This issue is resolved with Krisp’s AI-powered note-taking feature, which automatically records every detail so you can concentrate on the conversation.

Krisp operates discreetly in the background, in contrast to other meeting aides that join calls using bots, which might come across as invasive. Without being physically present, it records and transcribes meetings, ensuring a smooth procedure. The best part is that this function is totally free, so everyone on your team can use it.

Krisp provides flexible recording options to fit different needs. You can choose to transcribe conversations, record audio with transcription, or capture your screen—though screen recording is only available for Pro and Business subscribers. All recordings and transcriptions are securely stored in the cloud for easy access later.

With the free plan, Krisp keeps your meeting history for seven days, so you can review discussions or share information with team members who missed the meeting. Everything is available from your Krisp dashboard, making documentation effortless.

This simple and efficient approach to meeting notes is similar to Zoom’s AI companion but with a key advantage—Krisp keeps things easy to use without unnecessary complexity.

Quickly Understand Meetings with AI-Generated Summaries

Long meetings can result in lengthy transcripts, making it hard to find key information. Krisp simplifies this with AI-generated summaries that condense hour-long discussions into clear, digestible points.

The free plan includes two AI-generated summaries per day, making it easy to review important details before follow-up meetings. Instead of manually scanning through transcripts, you can quickly get the essential points, saving time and effort.

While other AI meeting assistants offer similar features, Krisp’s summaries feel more accurate. However, as with any AI tool, it’s always a good idea to double-check important details in the full transcript when needed.

Stay Organized with AI-Generated Action Items

Keeping track of meeting tasks can be just as challenging as the discussions themselves. Krisp makes this easier by automatically analyzing conversations and extracting action items.

These action items help keep your to-do list organized. The free plan allows two sets of AI-generated action items per day, accurately identifying tasks and assigning responsibility.

Once extracted, you can set priorities and due dates to ensure everyone knows what needs to be done and when. This keeps your team aligned and ensures nothing gets overlooked.

Customize Krisp to Fit Your Team’s Terminology

Every team uses unique terms, from project names to industry jargon, that AI may misinterpret. Krisp’s custom vocabulary feature lets teams create a shared dictionary for better transcription accuracy.

You can add up to 750 industry-specific terms to your workspace, ensuring clear and precise transcriptions during meetings. This is especially helpful for technical discussions or proprietary product names that standard AI tools might struggle with.

• How to Check a Suspicious Link Without Risking Your Data

Conclusion

Adding custom terms to Krisp is simple. Just enter your preferred words, separated by commas, in the custom vocabulary section. Once added, these terms are automatically recognized across all team members’ meetings, ensuring accurate transcriptions without manual corrections.

This feature is especially useful for teams that frequently use technical jargon, industry-specific acronyms, or unique project names. It eliminates the frustration of AI misinterpretations and helps maintain clarity in discussions.

With its free plan and useful features, Krisp makes remote meetings more efficient. If you’ve been relying on your phone for video calls, Krisp might just be the reason to switch to a PC for a more productive and seamless work experience.
