Krisp

Krisp is a Voice AI platform whose real-time speech-enhancement models run on over 200 million devices, licensed by Discord, Twilio, and VMware among others. Beyond its consumer AI Note Taker, Krisp ships a developer surface: the AI Voice SDK family (VIVA for voice AI agents — voice isolation, turn prediction, interruption prediction, VAD; and RTC for human-to-human calls — accent conversion, bidirectional noise cancellation, background voice cancellation) across Windows, macOS, Linux, Web (JS/WASM), iOS, and Android with C++, Python, Node.js, Go, Rust, and JavaScript bindings, plus framework integrations for LiveKit, WebRTC, and Pipecat. Krisp also runs a self-serve Voice Translation API — a streaming WebSocket speech-to-speech translation service covering 61 languages behind a REST session-token mint — and a programmatic SDK and model download REST API for CI/CD pipelines.

Krisp publishes 2 APIs on the APIs.io network: Voice Translation API and SDK & Model Downloads API. Tagged areas include Company, Ai, Voice AI, Speech, and Audio.

The Krisp catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.

Krisp’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, pricing, signup flow, and 27 more developer resources.

  name: Krisp Voice Translation API
  description: Real-time speech-to-speech voice translation delivered over a persistent WebSocket session. A REST call mints
    a short-lived session key, the client opens a WSS session with a JSON config message (source/target BCP-47 language, voice,
    custom vocabulary, translation dictionary), then streams 16 kHz mono PCM or Opus frames; the server streams synthesized
    translated speech back on the same socket alongside JSON transcript, translation, and error events. Krisp advertises 61
    languages and a 99.9% uptime SLA.
