Transcribe a Riverside recording

Riverside (Podcast recording). Riverside.fm records local, high-quality separate tracks plus a combined file, exported as WAV or MP4. Once you have the file, Whipscribe turns it into a clean transcript with speaker labels and per-word timestamps, exportable to TXT, SRT, VTT, or DOCX — no conversion required, and nothing ever leaves our private infrastructure for a third-party AI service.
