What they are

Krisp

Krisp runs as a virtual audio device on your desktop, stripping background noise from both sides of a call in real time and processing audio locally so your voice never hits the cloud. It has since expanded into a full meeting assistant: bot-free transcription, AI summaries, action items, and real-time accent conversion for Indian, Filipino, and Latin American English speakers. Podcasters, remote workers, and call center teams use it. The AI summaries are functional but less polished than those from note-taking-focused rivals.

Runway

Runway is a browser-based AI video platform used by filmmakers, social media creators, and marketing teams to generate, edit, and transform video with text and image prompts. Its Gen-4 Alpha model produces short video clips from text or images, while traditional editing tools sit alongside AI features in one workspace. Output quality impresses at short durations, but longer or complex scenes still require significant iteration.
