NEW: MEET RIVERSIDE AGENTS The first AI production team built only for video, now in your pocket. You finish recording, and your team's already on it. Your Producer preps the session, your Editor creates a rough cut, your Clipper pulls the best moments, and your Marketer gets them live. They're experts at video. You call the shots. Riverside turns your phone into a portable studio for conversations and talking head videos. Record crisp video and audio anywhere, go live to your audience, and let your agents take it from raw recording to ready to post. 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 your agents can get started the moment you stop. CLIPS FOR SOCIAL, MADE FOR YOU Knowing what to post is hard. Making it is harder. Your Clipper agent does both. It finds your most engaging moments before you've even watched the recording back, 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 your Editor 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'll even suggest edits of its own. 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 Your agents take a single recording and make 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 Record on your phone and finish on your computer, or start at your desk and keep going on the move. Your videos are synced to the cloud, and your agents keep working in between, so you can review edits, watch your clips, and decide what to post from any device. A SECOND CAMERA IN YOUR POCKET Recording on desktop? Add your phone as a second angle and capture an extra video track for your edit. BUILT FOR CREATORS OF EVERY KIND Podcasters, YouTubers, personal brands, and marketing teams. Anyone who wants studio-quality content without the studio. WHY RIVERSIDE • Riverside Agents, the first AI production team built only for video • True local recording for quality independent of your connection • One recording = instantly generated clips, thumbnails, posts, and more • AI editing and audio cleanup • Full production suite across mobile and desktop Download Riverside and take your studio anywhere.

Read full description

Turn your texts into a song — and a video ready to post. Text Song Video takes a real conversation (or just a topic) and turns it into an original song with a chat-bubble video. Other tools stop at an audio file and leave you to screen-record it. This one gives you the video. HOW IT WORKS 1. Paste a conversation, or describe what it's about 2. Pick a style — pop punk, sad acoustic, emo, rap, gospel, hyperpop 3. Get a song with the messages appearing in time with the music 4. Save it or share it straight to your feed WHAT YOU GET • A vertical (9:16) video, made for TikTok and Reels • Chat bubbles that pop in on the beat • An original song, not a template • Ready in minutes Great for inside jokes, group chats, arguments that aged well, and the message you still think about. Credits are required to create songs. Your first credits are on us. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
