Remove background noise from audio while keeping speech intelligible

Clean interviews, voice notes, podcasts and lessons affected by fan noise, hiss or room ambience. Begin with a short recording and compare quiet speech as well as pauses. Basic reduction suits steady noise; smart cleanup handles more varied backgrounds but sends audio to an external processing service.

For dialogue, not a replacement for music separation

A speech cleaner may soften music, laughter or room tone along with unwanted noise. To split a song into vocals and backing music, use Vocal separation. Very loud overlapping voices, clipped microphones and distant speech cannot always be repaired. Preserve the original and check the complete result before publishing.

From upload to a usable file

Choose your tool, check the original, review the credit estimate, process once, compare and export. Google sign-in protects your tasks and results. The same workspace is available on every tool page; switching tabs changes the task without changing the way you upload.

One recording. The right cleanup.

Before you start

Will noise removal keep my music?

Speech cleanup treats music and other sounds as background noise. To keep a song’s accompaniment, use Vocal remover and download the instrumental track.

Can I remove background noise from video?

Yes. Use Clean video to process the audio in your video. Supported recordings can be exported as MP4 with cleaned sound or as audio alone.

Can this remove every noise or echo?

No. Strong echo, overlapping voices and clipped recordings can remain difficult to repair. Compare the result with your original; processing can change the voice.

Does my recording leave my device?

Yes. Files are uploaded to our server. AI cleanup and separation also send audio to an external processing service. Basic noise reduction processes it on our server.
