What Remotely is
Remotely is a browser-based recording service for content creators making remote interviews. It records each participant locally, keeping audio as uncompressed WAV at 48 kHz/16-bit and video as MP4 at up to 4K and 30 frames per second. Each participant receives a separate track, and sessions can include up to eight simultaneous participants. Remotely says tracks remain synchronized during long interviews. Local recording is intended to prevent internet connection problems from changing recording quality, while continuous cloud uploads provide automatic backups during the interview. The service can automatically combine tracks into a file ready to publish. Hosts can use their own logo and colors for the guest experience, and calendar invitations can be sent automatically. No installation is required; the service says it supports all browsers, iOS, Android, and computer devices. Its API supports creating sessions, listing sessions, and retrieving recordings with an account API key. Audio costs $15 a month for five hours, while Audio + Video costs $25 a month for eight hours.
