Async vs Cleanfeed

Async is an online AI video editor where users create and edit videos through chat. It can remove filler, pauses, repetitions, bad takes, and awkward moments. Magic Dust reduces background noise and clarifies voices, while chat can generate B-roll, visuals, scenes, or music within an edit. Users can add subtitles and turn moments from longer videos into short-form clips. Async presents the workflow for ads, vlogs, explainers, podcasts, and other formats, and says it is built for creators and teams. Its browser-based remote interview feature supports up to 10 participants with separate tracks; local recording and automatic transcription are also listed. The Voice API supports text-to-speech and speech-to-text, including streaming over WebSockets. Async is available on the web and iOS, with no Android version listed. The Free plan is free and includes 10 lifetime AI credits, one hour of media upload to AI chat, exports up to 720p, and 2 GB storage. Paid pricing starts at $11.99/mo (annual).

Cleanfeed is browser-based audio software for long-distance professional work, including interviews, recording sessions, podcasting, radio, voice work, film and television, and commercial production. All versions provide unlimited recording time, and audio is captured live rather than synced later. The free Lite plan supports two guests, one local audio source, and mono remote audio. Pro supports up to 32 guests and records each guest on a separate track, with a limit of 32 tracks or 16 stereo tracks. It adds stereo remote audio, four local sources, privacy controls, markers and notes, playback tools, audio repair, and auxiliary outputs. Cinema supports up to 16 guests and includes DCI 2K 60fps centre-stage video, Gallery, and dedicated server capacity. The studio runs in a browser; Chrome on Mac and Windows and Chromium on Linux are preferred. Audio export is WAV, and video recording is available. Cleanfeed says audio is end-to-end encrypted and that it does not retain media copies on its servers. Safari on iPhone and iPad is in beta for guests only; hosting from those devices is not supported.
