Riverside adds AI newsletters from recordings to broaden content platform
Riverside now turns recordings into newsletter drafts and publishes them from its app. The feature deepens its push from recorder to all-in-one creator platform.
Riverside added an AI newsletter feature that turns recordings into draft issues and lets creators send them without leaving the app. The company is folding newsletters into a product that already handles recording, editing, livestreaming, webinars and podcast hosting, a move that pushes it further from its origins as a simple remote recording tool.
Users can refine a draft in Riverside’s rich text editor or start from scratch. Newsletters can be published on a Riverside website, where visitors can read posts and subscribe for updates, and creators can schedule an issue or send it immediately. The feature is available on Live, Webinar and Business plans.
Messages are sent from no-reply@newsletter.riverside.com, recipients cannot reply, and custom sender addresses are not allowed. Subscribers must explicitly opt in, and they can be added manually or imported through a CSV file.
Founder and chief executive Nadav Keyson said the point is to avoid forcing creators to restart in a separate newsletter tool when their ideas already exist in the conversation they recorded. In May 2026, the company dropped the Riverside.fm name and moved to Riverside.com. It is an AI-native studio for recording, editing, livestreaming, webinars, podcast hosting and repurposing into clips, posts, captions, transcripts, translations and show notes. Riverside began in 2020 as a remote 4K recording tool for video podcasters.
Substack added a built-in recording studio in March 2026, Beehiiv moved into podcasting in April 2026, and Mastodon said in June 2026 that it would let users publish posts as newsletters. Riverside has raised more than $60 million, per TechCrunch.
