OpenClip turns those recordings into short-form clips ready for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts — automatically. Riverside Podcast & Interview Recording ## Prerequisites - An active Riverside account (free or paid tier) - An active OpenClip account (Starter, Pro, or Business plan) - A completed Riverside recording exported as an MP4 or MOV file - Sufficient OpenClip processing credits for the length of your recordings ## Setup Steps 1 ### Record Your Podcast or Interview in Riverside Host your session in Riverside as usual. Riverside records each participant locally at high quality, so your final export will have clean audio and video even with remote guests. 2 ### Export the Full Recording from Riverside Once your session is complete, export the full composite video from Riverside. Choose the combined layout (all speakers visible) or a single-speaker track depending on how you want OpenClip to process the content. 3 ### Upload to OpenClip Log in to OpenClip and upload your Riverside export. OpenClip accepts standard MP4 and MOV files. You can upload multiple episodes at once using batch processing. 4 ### Let OpenClip Detect Viral Moments OpenClip's AI analyzes your recording's transcript using AI, scoring each segment by hook strength, narrative completeness, and viral potential. It surfaces 5–15 clip candidates per episode. 5 ### Review Clips, Apply Captions, and Export Browse your clip candidates, select your preferred caption preset from OpenClip's 10 styles, and export in 9:16 vertical format for your target platforms. ## Features ### Studio Quality In, Viral Clips Out Riverside's local recording ensures your source video is crisp and clear. OpenClip's AI then works with that high-quality footage to produce clips that look professional on any platform. ### AI Finds Your Best Moments No more scrubbing through hour-long podcast recordings. OpenClip's AI analysis reads your transcript and identifies the moments most likely to grab attention and drive engagement on short-form platforms. ### Multi-Speaker Tracking Riverside often captures interviews with two or more speakers. OpenClip's AI-based speaker tracking detects who's talking at any given moment and dynamically crops to keep them centered in frame. ### Word-Level Captions Automatically OpenClip adds captions synced to every spoken word using one of 10 customizable style presets — from bold pop styles to clean minimal looks — so your clips are accessible and scroll-stopping. ### Batch Process Full Podcast Libraries Have a back-catalog of Riverside recordings? Upload multiple episodes at once. OpenClip processes them in batch, giving you a full library of short clips without repetitive manual work. ### Platform-Ready Format Export Export clips in vertical 9:16 for TikTok and Reels and Twitter, or horizontal — all from the same source recording without re-editing. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### Does OpenClip connect directly to Riverside? OpenClip does not have a native direct integration with Riverside's API. The workflow is file-based: you export your recording from Riverside as an MP4, then upload it to OpenClip. This is straightforward and takes less than a minute to set up. ### What Riverside export settings work best for OpenClip? Export your Riverside recording as a composite MP4 with all speakers in the frame. Ensure the resolution is at least 720p (1080p preferred) for the best results with OpenClip's speaker tracking. If Riverside offers separate speaker tracks, the composite version is recommended for OpenClip's multi-speaker diarization. ### Can OpenClip handle interviews with two or more guests recorded in Riverside? Yes. OpenClip's speaker tracking uses AI face detection combined with speaker diarization, so it can identify who is speaking at any given moment in a multi-person recording and crop the frame accordingly. ### How many clips will OpenClip generate from a one-hour podcast? OpenClip typically surfaces 5–15 clip candidates per video. The exact number depends on the content — a one-hour interview with multiple strong story moments may yield more candidates than a solo presentation. ### Is this workflow suitable for podcast producers managing multiple shows? Absolutely. OpenClip's batch processing lets you upload episodes from multiple shows and process them simultaneously. This makes it practical for agencies or producers managing several Riverside-based podcasts at once. ### Does using OpenClip affect the audio quality of my Riverside clips? OpenClip processes the video and audio from your source file without degrading quality. The exported clips maintain the audio fidelity of your original Riverside recording. ### Can I use Riverside's built-in clip tool instead of OpenClip? Riverside does offer some built-in clip tools, but they require manual selection of segments. OpenClip's advantage is AI-driven moment detection — it automatically identifies which parts of your recording have the strongest viral potential, saving significant time and often surfacing moments you might have overlooked. ## Turn Your Riverside Recordings into a Content Engine Every episode you record in Riverside is full of shareable moments. OpenClip finds them for you. Upload your first recording and see your clips in minutes.
