Pros
“The automated transcription and the Magic Clips AI tool have saved me hours in post-production, allowing me to turn a long-form interview into social-ready snippets in minutes.”
BP

Brad P.

CEO

“Another recent discovery I made was the ability to do an interview with people from another country, in this case Ukraine, and get a transcript that is automatically translated. While we utilized a professional translator for the interview, the already translated transcript made subtitle work so much easier.”
MG

Max G.

Host

“It’s has many useful editing and recording features, the high quality local recording saved my bacon on my first use (a celebrity interview: [sensitive content hidden]!)”
DM

Dan M.

Owner

Cons
“Adding B-roll clips can be somewhat uncomfortable and less intuitive than expected. Because of this, we usually download the video after the initial edit and move it to another video editing software where we can add B-roll, apply effects, and use LUTs more efficiently.”
AC

Andres C.

Marketing Strategist

“The main issue I experienced was that today’s recording became a little choppy in the middle of an episode, which interrupted the flow of the conversation. While the platform has generally worked well for me overall, moments like that can be frustrating when you’re trying to maintain a natural discussion or record professional-quality content.”
Wb

Warda b.

Marketing Manager

“You can buy MP3s and then upload them to Riverside and play them, but the music will not line up with your body movements or mouth if you’re a singer in the recording.”

The Canvas integration is important because it helps connect interactive activities and student engagement tools with the learning environment students already use daily.

Our on-line studies are where our We Are stories live. We use iFrame to resize them.
