Amazon Chime introduces Amazon Voice Focus for noise suppression

Posted on: Aug 20, 2020

Amazon Chime introduces Amazon Voice Focus, deep learning based noise suppression to reduce unwanted noise from meetings. 

Amazon Chime is a secure, real-time, communications service that simplifies video conferencing, online meetings, calls, and chat. Amazon Voice Focus uses pre-trained machine learning to suppress constant and intermittent noise, allowing users to work remotely and on-the-go with a similar experience as users in a dedicated workplace. 

Amazon Voice Focus reduces environment noises like wind, fans, and running water; background noises like lawn mowers and dogs barking; foreground noises like keyboard typing and shuffling papers.  

Amazon Voice Focus is now available and enabled for meeting attendees using the Amazon Chime Windows and macOS clients. Give the new feature a try by downloading and signing up for the free Amazon Chime 30-day Pro trial.
