About

Riverside is a web-based production platform that handles recording, editing, repurposing, streaming, and publishing for podcasters and video creators in a single workflow. It addresses a common problem in remote content production: video calls recorded over the internet often look and sound poor. Riverside solves this by recording each participant locally on their own device, capturing up to 4K video and uncompressed audio as separate tracks that remain unaffected by a weak connection.

The platform works end to end. Users record solo sessions or remote interviews in a browser-based studio, edit the result through a text-based editor that treats the transcript like a document, and use built-in AI to generate clips, show notes, captions, and translations. Riverside also includes podcast hosting with distribution to Spotify, Apple, and YouTube, plus full HD multistreaming for live shows and webinars. The company offers a free tier, paid subscriptions, desktop and mobile apps, and a business plan with priority support for marketing and production teams.

Key Features

Local, multi-track recording: Captures up to 4K video and uncompressed audio per participant on separate tracks, so the final files do not depend on internet quality during the call.
Text-based editing: Lets creators edit video by cutting, copying, and pasting text in the transcript, with multi-track control for removing crosstalk or changing layouts.
AI audio and video cleanup: Magic Audio reduces noise and improves mic quality, while other tools remove filler words and silences, correct spoken mistakes with synced voice and lip movement, and adjust eye contact.
AI repurposing tools: Magic Clips, an AI Co-Creator, and AI show notes turn one recording into social clips, thumbnails, headlines, transcripts, and promotional copy, and AI translation covers more than 30 languages.
Podcast hosting and publishing: Distributes episodes to major apps such as Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube, and provides analytics plus auto-generated titles, descriptions, and chapters.
Live streaming and webinars: Streams in 1080p to multiple destinations simultaneously, supports audience call-ins and Q&As, and can host webinars with up to 100 registrants on the dedicated plan.
Branding and collaboration: Custom logos, colors, intros, and overlays can be saved and applied in one click, keeping output consistent across episodes and team members.

Who It's For

Creators focused on social media benefit from the automatic clip generation, captions, and multi-platform publishing, and businesses get team collaboration features with priority support.
