Pros

    Riverside

    Riverside (formerly Riverside.fm) is the all-in-one platform for recording, live streaming, editing, repurposing, and publishing studio-quality videos and podcasts. Creators and businesses use it to produce broadcast-quality content without the production maze of multiple tools, expensive studios, or technical expertise. Record up to 4K video and uncompressed audio locally on every participant’s device, so quality holds up even on bad internet. Edit by editing the transcript. Turn long recordings into clips, captions, show notes, and translations with AI. Webinars scale to 10,000 attendees.
