Descript
AI-powered video and podcast editor with transcription-first workflows.
VideoFreemium
Remote podcast and video recording studio with local high-quality tracks and AI editing.
Overview
Riverside records podcasts, interviews, and video calls in the browser while capturing each participant locally in up to 4K video and uncompressed audio, so poor internet does not degrade the final files. After recording, its AI editor produces a text-based transcript for cutting, removes filler words and silences, applies Magic Audio noise cleanup, generates show notes and chapters, and creates vertical clips for social media. It also supports livestreaming to YouTube, LinkedIn, and Facebook, and offers a teleprompter and separate screen share tracks. Small businesses use it for customer interview series, expert podcasts, webinars, and recorded testimonials. Files sync to Google Drive and Dropbox, and projects can be opened in Descript or Adobe Premiere. The free plan watermarks video and limits recording hours, and Pro includes five hours of multi-track recording per month. Guests must use Chrome or the mobile app, which occasionally confuses less technical participants.
