A new dated entry is stamped here each time the price moves — the record builds itself.
From 2026-10-16 our record reflects a correction we published, not a vendor price move, so earlier figures are not compared with it.
Tracked since June 2026. No change record has cleared two sources yet, so nothing is published on the wire.
Corrections to this record
Changes we made to our own record of Riverside, newest first: a figure read again on the vendor's page, a plan it no longer lists, a note. None of them is a price change by Riverside. Every correction on the site is in the corrections log.
-
Pro. Re-read 2026-11-01: the price stands at $35 a month. The note said 15 hours of multi-track recording; the page now reads "Separate track downloads (15 hrs on Pro, 20 on Grow, 25 on Webinar)" and "Recording itself is unlimited."
-
Webinar. Re-read 2026-11-01: the price stands at $99 a month. The note said Everything in Live plus; the page now reads "Everything in Grow, plus: Webinar tools Host webinars with up to 100 registrants".
-
Pro. Price corrected from $24 to $35 (month, billed monthly). This row was last read on 2026-09-03. The record had held $24, the annual-billed rate: the default Yearly view reads Pro $35 $24 /month, and with the Monthly control clicked Pro reads $35 /month. The page's FAQ still says annual billing takes Pro from $29 to $24/month, but the price card prints $35 as the monthly rate on both sides of the switch. The annual discount was set to this plan's own saving of 31% (it was unrecorded, though both rates are published). The page reads: "Pro Create polished, high-quality content $35 /month Start 14-day free trial Pro includes:". Read in a browser on 2026-09-27.

Webinar. Price corrected from $79 to $99 (month, billed monthly). This row was last read on 2026-09-03. The record had held $79, the annual-billed rate: the default Yearly view reads Webinar $99 $79 /month, and with the Monthly control clicked Webinar reads $99 /month; the page's FAQ agrees, Webinar from $99 to $79. The annual discount was set to this plan's own saving of 20% (it was unrecorded, though both rates are published). The page reads: "Best Value Webinar Plan, host & repurpose webinars $99 /month Start 14-day free trial Everything in Grow, plus:". Read in a browser on 2026-09-27.

Webinar. Annual discount withdrawn, price unchanged. The record held 20% off $79, but the note calls $79 the annual-billed rate and names no month-to-month one, so the page offered a saving off a price that already had the saving in it. The annual discount is a percentage of the monthly price and had no base to be one of.

This standing as a plaque
Riverside currently holds a bronze deskmark here — Rank 4 of 6 · Podcast Recording. Anyone may show it. There is nothing to apply for, nothing to pay, and displaying it changes no score: the standing comes from the published algorithm, which never reads commission data. We never ask anyone to show it, and its link carries rel="nofollow".
The image is drawn from our live data, so it follows the standing rather than freezing it: if Riverside moves up or down a tier, the plaque on your own site says so at our next publish. Nothing is tracked beyond the ordinary web-server log that records any image request.
