    • Magic Audio - Enhances your audio tracks, delivering sharp, studio-quality sound with less background noise and reverb.

    Core product

    We use AI generated transcriptions to ensure you and your guests have a one-of-a-kind experience with Riverside. Transcriptions are foundational to our product, meaning you cannot opt-out of using it when using Riverside. 

    • Transcriptions - Converts your audio conversation into written text that can be used for editing and creating engaging content.

  • The safety precautions we've taken

    Protecting your data is paramount.

    Our AI systems are built to respect privacy rights and are designed with robust data security measures in place to safeguard your personal information.

    Third-party AI sub-processors

    All third-party AI sub-processors have undergone a thorough security review and approval process by our Security Team and are subject to Data Processing Addendums to ensure that:

    1. They do not use customer data to train their own models.
    2. Processing of data is limited to the provision of the services.

    In-house AI models

    We adhere to our internal AI Development Policy that governs the development, deployment, training, and use of machine learning models and AI technologies at Riverside, including ethical considerations, privacy, accuracy, and security.

    These guidelines ensure that our AI features are designed with your safety and privacy as top priorities.
  • Your responsibilities

    Validation and verification

    When using our AI features, it's crucial to enter unbiased, acceptable inputs according to our Terms and Conditions, and validate and verify the outputs generated before sharing or publishing your work.

    While our AI technology strives for accuracy, it's still up to you to ensure the output is polished and appropriate to your liking and to our terms of use.

    Your responsibility for input and output in AI tools

    You are responsible for the content, media, text, and any images you upload and record using Riverside’s AI tools, as well as the resulting content generated.

AI at Riverside FAQs

  • How do I opt in or out of using AI?

    Electing to use any of our AI features is at your sole discretion, meaning you have the freedom to decide to use them or not.

    By simply not using the AI tools available, you are electing to opt out.

    Business users can disable AI post-production tools by following these steps.

  • What personal data will third-party AI sub-processors have access to?

    It’s important to note that as you have full control of the information you choose to record, upload, and publish on our platform, you solely determine if and what personal data may be contained in your transcripts.

    Depending on the nature of your content and the information you choose to share in the recording, you might inadvertently be submitting personal data such as names, contact information, information about a person’s family, or other sensitive information - which will be shared with OpenAI for the purpose of only extracting relevant highlights.
