Record, edit, and go live from your phone, then turn your best moments into AI clips ready to post. Your studio for conversations and talking heads.
Studio-quality recording, editing, and live streaming, right from your phone.
Riverside turns your phone into a portable studio for conversations and talking head videos. Record crisp video and audio anywhere, polish it on the spot, go live to your audience, and turn the best bits into posts, without a laptop or a production team. Whether you're creating a podcast, a YouTube channel, a personal brand, or content for your business, this is where it gets made.
RECORD ANYWHERE, IN STUDIO QUALITY
Record solo, bring on a remote guest, or go audio-only. Riverside captures every track locally, so your quality stays sharp even when your connection doesn't. A built-in stabilizer keeps your shot steady, and your footage uploads in the background as you record, so it's ready to edit and clip the moment you stop.
CLIPS FOR SOCIAL, MADE FOR YOU
Knowing what to post is hard. Making it is harder. Riverside's AI does both. It finds your most engaging moments, then cuts them, frames them, and adds the captions. You get the best clips from every recording, ready to publish with a tap.
EDIT WITH A PROMPT
Describe your edit, and Riverside's AI agent makes it. No timeline. No pinching and dragging clips around on a small screen. Tell it which parts to cut and keep, ask it to clean up audio and remove filler words, or add captions and branding. It's the fastest route from raw recording to ready to post, and when you want more control, your project is waiting for you in the Riverside desktop editor.
TURN ONE RECORDING INTO A CONTENT ENGINE WITH AI
Riverside's AI agent takes a single recording and makes the rest for you: social clips, a thumbnail, captions, a blog post, full show notes. Just ask.
LIVE STREAM TO EVERYWHERE AT ONCE
Go live and multistream to YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn, X, Twitch, TikTok, and custom RTMP destinations at the same time — one session, every audience.
PICK UP WHERE YOU LEFT OFF
Started a recording or an edit on your computer? Open it on your phone, watch it back, and leave comments waiting for you when you're back at your desk. Already a Riverside desktop user? The app carries your work with you, so your studio isn't stuck at one location.

I love Riverside! what used to take me ages and a lot of expense to film and edit podcasts and virtual courses now takes just a fraction of the time and cost. My team can access and edit from anywhere on any device- plus the magic clips are so helpful for repurposing content and getting ideas for social content to create from the videos we just produced. I DO wish that I could film vertically then rotate in the editor though- that would be a massive improvement. Overall, I’m a huge Riverside fan and would recommend it to anyone producing and editing video content.
Magic Clips; Gone.
The Real CoCo Butter
One of the things I use this app for more than anything, if not, the only thing, is the Magic Clips. I record an episode through Google Chrome, and when finished recording, the recording generates Magic Clips to which I would find in my “For You” section of each episode on the app. I would click on a Magic Clip on the app on my phone, and while I couldn’t view it, yet, was able to export and then download to my phone to prepare for social media posting. I was also able to long hold on the clip, click edit and fix normalize the sound before exporting. The other day, there was an app update and I couldn’t access use of the app unless I updated it; so I did. Once the app was done updating, I opened the app to check the Magic Clips from my most recent recording, and I came to find out, that with the new update, they removed that feature. It was really the only thing I used this app for. I would find a clip, export, download, edit in another app, and post. Now, the only way to access Magic Clips is through the website. This really makes things difficult in order to get some content out because I don’t have a desk job where I am at my computer all day and can edit clips, and when I am at my computer, I’m editing a full 2.5 hour+ episode to post on all platforms. This was possibly the apps best feature and, for some reason, the update had that key feature removed. I don’t understand the logic in taking away a feature that is so critical to posting of content. It boggles my mind. It makes no sense.
ZERO stars. Terrible Video Quality
Jane@1111
If you want terrible video quality, then this app is for you. Even the paid version provides zero video resolution options. Every video is out of focus and worthless to use if you want quality video. The customer service is subpar. No phone contact number for immediate help. The pro version on the computer is over $30 a month and they can’t even provide you with immediate service. Ridiculous! If you want to record on your phone and then edit on your computer, you have to pay for the Phone app and the computer access app. And even then it’s a moot point because the video quality is terrible even though you’re using a camera that has superb video quality. Useless. When questioned about the low video quality available through the mobile app their responses that it is supposed to be used for on the go. Well here is my response to that just because it’s on the go doesn’t mean that you don’t want or need quality video. Again this is a useless app. Look elsewhere. I had decided because of that that I would turn off my $9.99 mobile app subscription because I’m already paying over $31 a month for the computer subscription. And what did they do? They shut down both accounts.

It’s good but frustrating
TheREALskyDaddy
I really like the concept, however, I can’t get around this app nor can I really appreciate the effort put into it since it is pretty cut and dry. I do my recordings on the computer but I have run into a few annoying problems since I first signed up, first off, there seems to be some bugs that happen during your meetings like: guests joining as audience members even when you clicked on ‘guest’, guests appearing twice in the meeting (two copies of them appear when watching the recording), audio will desynchronize at random moments in the recording, when reviewing your footage it only plays one screen at a time instead of both (or will play one screen at a time but the screen you are viewing will be paused while the audio from the other screen will play without imagery)…. As far as the app goes I am upset that you cannot review your studios at all like you can do on the website. This would make the app much better, all it appears you can do is host sessions and record but you would have to go to the computer to watch, review and export it.
