Each participant captures their own microphone at full quality — no compression, no installs, no third-party middlemen. Self-host it yourself or let us run it for you.
All the tools for a live recording session — from first take to final file — in one place. Both the hosted and self-hosted versions include every feature.
Each participant's microphone is captured in the browser before any WebRTC compression — raw, high-quality audio per person, always.
Every person gets their own .webm file. Chunks upload to the server live as you record, so nothing is lost if a connection drops.
Live audio and video travel directly between participants — the server only handles signaling, never your media streams.
Upload and trigger audio clips during a live session — intros, outros, sound effects, ad bumpers. Clips can be saved to a shared server library or kept local.
A separate workspace for building episodes before recording. Upload sources, scrub and timestamp video clips, OCR text from images, and write shared or personal episode notes.
Pass notes and timestamps between participants in real time. Capture screenshots from Prep Notes video and pin them for quick reference during recording.
Set a custom name, logo, accent color, and background. Every connected participant sees the update live — no refresh needed.
Drop a folder into plugins/ and it's picked up automatically. Plugins can add API routes, WebSocket handlers, and sidebar tabs in the studio.
Three roles — Host, Member, Guest — each with their own password. Guests can join and record without access to settings or other participants' files.
No software to install on guest machines. Share a link and start recording.
Use the Prep Notes workspace to upload source material, write episode notes, and capture screenshots ahead of the session.
Send guests the URL to your studio. Everyone joins with their browser using a shared password — no app install required.
The host starts recording. Each participant captures their own mic locally and streams it to the server in chunks as you go.
After the session, pull individual tracks from the Settings page and edit them in any DAW — Audacity, Reaper, Descript, and others.
A few of the most common questions. See the full FAQ for more detail.
No. Live audio and video travel directly between participants over WebRTC — peer to peer. The server only handles signaling (telling participants how to connect to each other) and stores the recorded audio chunks you upload. At no point does live audio stream through the server.
The studio software is identical. The hosted plan means we provision and maintain the server for you — you sign up, get a URL, and start recording. Self-hosting means you deploy the open-source code to your own server (a $5–10/month VPS is plenty) and manage it yourself. Both give you full control over your recordings.
No accounts at all. Access is password-based — you share the Guest password with whoever is joining. They open your studio URL in a browser, enter the password, and they're in. Nothing to install, no sign-up required.
Get a hosted studio in under a minute, or deploy the open-source version to your own server — free forever.
