Studio-grade local capture
Each guest records locally on their own device, which protects the source material from internet glitches during the live call.
For podcasting teams, the value is not just in the call itself. It is in what happens after: isolated tracks, reliable sync, and fewer production surprises. That makes Airtape a strong fit for interview shows, founder podcasts, roundtables, and any workflow where clean source material matters.
Why teams choose Airtape
Separate audio and video tracks
Editors get isolated files for every participant instead of a single compressed mix that is harder to fix later.
Low-friction guest access
Guests join in the browser with a single link, so hosts can keep the workflow approachable even for non-technical interviewees.
Built for recording-first podcast workflows
Podcast teams need more than a meeting room with a record button. They need a workflow that starts quickly, survives bad connections, and ends with files that can actually be edited and published.
Airtape keeps the product surface focused on that outcome. The host gets a clean remote recording session, the guest gets a straightforward browser join flow, and the editor gets isolated source material instead of a compromised fallback.
From guest link to finished recording
Create a session, send the guest link, and make a short test together. Select microphone and headphones before starting. After stopping, everyone keeps the page open until upload is complete. Download and check the files before editing.
What the free starting point includes
Free includes two recording hours monthly, two people total, and seven-day retention. Check current plans for larger discussions and longer retention. A podcast host for your RSS feed is a separate part of publishing.
Frequently asked questions
Do guests need to create an account?
No. Guests can join with a single browser link, which keeps the recording workflow easy to explain and easy to complete.
Do I get separate tracks for everyone?
Yes. Airtape is built to return individual source tracks so editors can control every voice and camera angle separately.
