The workflow: create a session, send link to guests, everyone joins and records locally, Riverside syncs and uploads everything.

❓ FAQ

How does Riverside differ from Zoom recording?
Zoom records compressed audio. Riverside captures each speaker's audio locally at high quality, then syncs. Results are much better for podcasts.
Can I use Riverside for interviews with remote guests?
Yes, that's the primary use case. Each person records locally; Riverside handles sync and management.
Is Riverside suitable for live streaming?
Mostly for recording. Live streaming features exist but aren't the primary strength. Better for recorded-first, publish later workflows.
What's the audio quality like?
Studio-quality if you use decent microphone. Each person's audio captured locally at high bitrate before compression.
Do I need special equipment?
Good USB microphone is ideal. Headphones recommended for monitoring. Otherwise, any computer with microphone works.
