Riverside offers a genuinely free plan, so you can start without spending anything. Pro, Grow, and Webinar each include a 14-day free trial. One thing to check before you buy: recording is unlimited on every plan, but separate track downloads are capped (15–25 hours per month on paid tiers), so match that limit to your workflow.
