Riverside.fm is primarily a platform for recording, editing, and publishing high-quality audio and video content, particularly for podcasts and video interviews. While it offers robust editing features (including text-based editing which functions similarly to a rich text editor for content manipulation), transcription, and tools for publishing and promoting content, it does not align with the core concept of a 'content publishing & distribution platform' like Medium. Specifically, it lacks a native distribution and recommendation engine for written articles, a direct monetization model for writers based on reading time, or a strong emphasis on long-form written content. Its focus is on media production rather than text-based content distribution and community engagement around written stories.
I've been using Alternative A for 6 months now and it's been fantastic. The pricing is much better and the features are actually more robust than what [Product] offers.
It handles edge cases much better and the API
is actually documented properly.

Honestly, after trying both, Competitor B wins hands down. Better customer support, cleaner interface, and they don't nickel and dime you for every feature.
