Paid plans start at $24/mo. There's also a free plan.
Paid Riverside plans start at $24 per month when billed annually, or $29 month to month for Pro. The free plan is limited to two total hours of multitrack recording and 720p video, though it includes unlimited single-track recording and Magic Clips. Grow is $34/month annually for live streaming and two-show podcast hosting. Webinar is $79/month annually, but its listed annual bill conflicts with that rate. Business pricing is custom and not published. Annual plans are charged upfront; the page lists a 14-day trial.

02What the plan grid doesn't tell you
Annual payment is upfront
Annual prices require one upfront payment: Pro is $288/year and Grow is $408/year. The pricing page says annual billing cuts the monthly rate by up to 20%.
Webinar annual total conflicts
The page lists Webinar at $79/month and says $408 is billed annually, a mismatch with the roughly $948 implied by that monthly rate. Confirm the total before buying.
Extra editor seats cost more
Additional editor seats are available on Pro, Grow and Webinar, but the published pricing information does not publish their price.
Extra AI credits cost extra
Pro includes 2,000 AI credits; Business includes 12,000. Extra credits are purchasable after the included allotment runs out, but their price is not published.
03Which plan should you buy?
| If you are… | Get | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Casual users testing recording | Free | It includes unlimited single-track recording and Magic Clips, but multitrack recording is capped at two total hours and exports carry a watermark. |
| Solo creators needing clean exports | Pro | It adds up to 4K video, no watermark, 15 hours per month of separate track downloads and 2,000 AI credits. |
| Creators who livestream and publish | Grow | It adds Full HD multistreaming, scheduling, a newsletter, a creator website and podcast hosting for two shows. |
04Is Riverside worth the money?
Riverside bundles recording, editing and publishing tools, so it may suit creators who want those jobs in one workflow. The price alone does not show whether that costs less than separate services. Check the monthly separate-track limits—15 hours on Pro, 20 on Grow and 25 on Webinar—before choosing a plan. The Webinar annual-billing discrepancy needs clarification, and our review verdict says reliability reports are mixed. Business pricing is custom, which makes a full cost comparison harder.
Riverside pricing FAQ
What is the Riverside podcast?
Riverside is a platform for recording and editing video and audio, with podcast publishing tools. The product information says it can publish to Spotify, Apple and YouTube with performance analytics. Podcast hosting starts on Grow, which includes hosting for two shows.
How can I cancel my Riverside.fm subscription?
The published pricing information does not state how to cancel, whether cancellation ends access immediately, or whether refunds are available. We can't confirm those terms from the pricing details here. Check your account billing controls or Riverside's current help documentation before renewing.
Is Riverside an Israeli company?
The published sources for this pricing page do not identify Riverside's country of origin, so we can't verify whether it is an Israeli company. Its pricing details do not answer that question. Check Riverside's current company or legal information for a sourced statement.
How much does Riverside Business cost?
Business has custom pricing; the published pricing information does not publish a monthly or annual price. The plan lists unlimited studios and separate track downloads, up to 10,000 webinar registrants, 12,000 AI credits, SSO and API access. A total cost cannot be calculated from the published public figures.
