What it's good for

  • Voice memos and voice notes recorded on a phone in a noisy room.
  • Podcast, interview and YouTube voiceover takes with a fan, AC or computer hum behind them.
  • Lecture and meeting recordings full of keyboard clicks and air conditioning.
  • Recordings you want to transcribe: cleaner audio is easier to read back as text.

How the AI noise remover works

Classic noise reduction cuts whole frequency bands, which is why it leaves voices sounding thin or underwater. This tool uses DeepFilterNet3, a neural network trained to tell speech from noise, so it lowers the noise around your voice while keeping the voice itself intact. It works on 48 kHz audio, the same rate video uses.

Frequently asked questions

How do I remove background noise from audio for free?

Upload the recording on this page. The AI removes the noise and you download the clean file. Three files a day are free with no signup.

Can I remove background noise from a video?

Yes. Upload the MP4 or MOV and you get the cleaned audio track back as WAV or MP3, ready to drop into your video editor in place of the original.

Will it change how my voice sounds?

It is built to keep speech intact. Very noisy recordings can lose a little brightness; play the before and after on this page to compare.

Can it remove music or other people talking?

Not reliably. It is trained to remove noise, and music or background voices are partly kept because they sound like the thing it is protecting.

What files can I upload?

MP3, WAV, M4A, OGG, WEBM and FLAC audio, or MP4 and MOV video, up to 5 minutes and 25 MB.

Can I get a transcript of the recording?

Yes. After cleaning, press Transcribe this file to get the text, free and without an account.

Is my recording stored?

No. The file is processed in a temporary folder and deleted as soon as the clean audio is sent back to you.

Is there a limit?

Three files a day without an account and 20 a day with a free one, each up to 5 minutes long.
