Riverside: AI video for podcasters, creators and small businesses
Official site link, not an affiliate link. We do not have an approved referral link for Riverside.
Riverside helps you make and edit video by this route: record, edit and publish video and podcasts, now with a team of AI agents: Producer, Editor, Clipper and Marketer. It is best for podcasters, creators and small businesses who record talking-head video and want help with editing, clips and posting. People also use it to work with voice and audio.
What it does
Riverside is an online studio for recording, editing and publishing video and podcasts. With Agents, Riverside says the Producer preps your session, the Editor builds an editing plan for the full episode, the Clipper finds moments worth sharing for social, and the Marketer writes captions and show notes and schedules posts. The agents remember how you like things done. You can choose how much to hand off and approve everything before it goes out, per Riverside.

Editorial note
Riverside launched Riverside Agents on October 26, 2026: four AI agents built only for video, a Producer, an Editor, a Clipper and a Marketer. Riverside says they roll out on web and iOS, and nothing goes out without your sign-off.
Who it’s for
- For: Podcasters, creators and small businesses who record talking-head video and want help with editing, clips and posting.
- Not ideal for: people who mostly edit screen recordings or long cinematic video rather than conversations and talking-head content.
Key use cases
- Video & avatars
- Voice & audio
What you can do with it
- Free access: Riverside’s pricing page checked November 11, 2026 offers a 14-day free trial and does not list a $0 plan with 2 free hours. This matters when you want to test before you pay.
- Pro plan: Up to 4K, no watermark, unlimited text-based editing, an AI editing and repurposing agent, 15 hours of separate track downloads. This matters when the free tier is not enough.
- Grow plan: Everything in Pro plus social scheduling, newsletter, creator website, live streaming and Riverside MCP. This matters when the free tier is not enough.
- Help documentation: Official pricing and product pages at riverside.com/agents. This matters when you set it up yourself.
How to use Riverside: step-by-step tutorial
Five to eight steps from the account to a first useful result. Where the official guide names a control, the step uses that name. Where it does not, the step stays general.
- Start Riverside’s 14-day free trial from the pricing page, then open the agents at riverside.com/agents.
- Ask the Producer to prep questions and a run of show for your next recording.
- Record your episode in the Riverside studio.
- When you stop recording, review the Editor’s edit plan and the clips the Clipper flags.
- Let the Marketer draft captions, then approve each post before it is scheduled.
These steps follow the official guide: Riverside Agents page.
