what AI can build

Use an open noise-suppression model as a virtual microphone or post-process recordings before sending them to calls or files.

You can build post-processing and maybe route audio through open models, but real-time low-latency virtual-device noise cancellation is not a one-sitting web app.

The prompt was editor-reviewed; no completed build is recorded.

the prompt

Curated prompt
Build me a noise-cleanup tool to replace Krisp for recordings, not live calls. Requirements:

- Be honest in the README up front: real-time suppression as a virtual microphone
  needs an OS-level audio driver and millisecond latency. That is Krisp's actual
  product and it is out of scope here. This tool cleans audio files after the fact.
- A CLI: `denoise in.wav` (mp3/m4a accepted, decoded via ffmpeg) writes
  in.clean.wav next to the original, original untouched.
- Use RNNoise for the suppression pass (ffmpeg's arnndn filter with a downloaded
  model file is the easy route), then a loudnorm pass so voice levels come out
  consistent.
- A watch mode with chokidar: drop files into ~/Denoise/in/ and cleaned versions
  appear in ~/Denoise/out/ with the same names.
- Batch mode for whole folders, with a printed before/after noise estimate per file.
- Node wrapping ffmpeg, or a plain bash script if that ships simpler. No server,
  no GUI.
- Fully local and offline: no accounts, no telemetry, no API calls.
- Out of scope: live call processing and a virtual audio device. For live calls the
  README should point me at the OS's built-in voice isolation instead.
- README: ffmpeg and RNNoise model install, one-line usage examples.

questions

Can AI replace Krisp?

Possibly for a narrower core workflow, but this catalog judgment is not a verified build. Expected gaps include: low-latency virtual microphone, polished app switching. Validate the prompt against your own acceptance criteria before committing.

How much does Krisp cost?

Krisp is listed at about $16/month (Pro/Core, checked 2026-07-30), or $192 per year. This is a pricing reference, not evidence of a completed replacement or realized savings.

What do I lose by replacing Krisp?

Honestly: low-latency virtual microphone; polished app switching; model quality; meeting integrations; admin controls. If any of those are load-bearing for you, keep paying.

Is there an open-source alternative to Krisp?

Yes — RNNoise (Open-source recurrent noise suppression model; useful but not a full Krisp replacement.). Using prior art is also a valid exit; the prompt is for when you want it exactly your way.
