What is Riverside.fm?
Riverside.fm is an online studio for recording, editing, repurposing and publishing podcasts and video. It records each participant locally in up to 4K video and uncompressed audio on separate tracks, so internet hiccups don't affect the quality.
After recording, a text-based editor lets you cut video by editing the transcript. AI tools remove filler words and silences, fix eye contact, correct speech, generate B-roll, and translate and dub into more than 30 languages. The AI Co-Creator and Magic Clips turn one session into clips, show notes, thumbnails and posts. Built-in podcast hosting publishes to Spotify, Apple and YouTube and includes analytics.
Higher plans add multistreaming in full HD, webinars with registration and a HubSpot sync, and an MCP connection for AI assistants. It suits podcasters, producers, marketers and business teams. There is a free plan, and paid plans include a 14-day trial.
