Product node overview & trust baseline

Riverside was founded in 2020 by Nadav and Gideon Keyson, backed by Alexis Ohanian's Seven Seven Six and Zeev Ventures, trusted by Spotify, The New York Times, and Microsoft. Its core innovation is local multi-track recording: each participant's audio and video are recorded locally on their machine in up to 4K video and 48kHz lossless WAV, immune to internet glitches, alongside unlimited AI speech-to-text transcription, text-based editing, Magic Audio noise cleanup, and Magic Clips. It operates a freemium model: Free tier offers trial recording and 2 hours of separate tracks; Pro costs $35/month ($24/mo equiv billed yearly, 15 hours separate track downloads, 4K video, unlimited transcriptions); Grow costs $45/month ($34/mo equiv billed yearly, 20 hours downloads, and multistreaming).
