Overview

Adobe Podcast (now Podcast in Adobe Express) is a browser-based audio enhancement tool from Adobe that applies AI processing to dramatically improve recording quality, its headline feature, Mic Check and Enhance Speech, converts a recording made on a laptop microphone or in a noisy environment into audio that sounds like a professional studio microphone capture. The enhancement is applied in seconds and works on uploaded MP3/WAV files or recordings made directly in the browser, making it accessible to podcast creators, YouTubers, and remote interviewers without any audio production knowledge. Adobe Podcast also handles multi-speaker recording via its Remote Recording feature, which captures each speaker on a separate high-quality local track regardless of internet connection quality during the call, similar to Riverside.fm's approach but integrated into Adobe's ecosystem.

The Transcript editor displays the full recording as text, allowing cuts and edits to the audio by deleting words from the transcript. Adobe Podcast is available free with an Adobe account; premium features require an Adobe Creative Cloud subscription. It is most impactful for podcasters and video creators who film in imperfect acoustic environments and need studio-grade audio without hardware investment.
