About Riverside

Riverside is an AI-powered platform for recording, editing, repurposing, and distributing studio-quality audio and video. Guests join from a browser while each participant is recorded locally in up to 4K video and uncompressed audio on separate tracks. A text-based editor, AI cleanup, captions, clips, show notes, live streaming, and built-in podcast hosting complete the workflow, serving podcasters, interviewers, marketers, and webinar hosts who need professional results without a studio.
