HARQ ClearVoice vs Krisp AI Meeting Assistant

HARQ ClearVoice is paid workstation software for real-time microphone noise cancellation and accent neutralization during calls. It filters sounds such as traffic, barking dogs, and other agents before audio reaches a softphone. HARQ states that processing has 40 ms latency, runs on the CPU, and does not require a GPU. Audio remains on the workstation instead of being sent to a server, and the software can work offline. Accent neutralization is described as signal-level speech enhancement that preserves natural speech; it is not translation or text-to-speech. A virtual audio device outputs the processed signal, which the user selects as the softphone input. Named compatibility includes Talkdesk, Genesys, Five9, Avaya, and any SIP client using that device. ClearVoice is enabled as a toggle on an existing HARQ presence agent, without a separate installer. Auto-updates are included per device. Pricing is metered per device per month through an AWS Marketplace private offer, with rates supplied by sales.
