What they are

Adobe Podcast

Adobe Podcast is a browser-based audio tool that removes background noise, enhances voice recordings, and generates transcripts using AI. It targets podcasters, educators, and video creators who record in less-than-ideal environments. The Enhance Speech feature genuinely improves muddy recordings, though heavy processing can occasionally make voices sound slightly synthetic. A free tier exists with usage limits, and the paid plan sits under the Adobe Creative Cloud umbrella.

Runway

Runway is a browser-based AI video platform used by filmmakers, social media creators, and marketing teams to generate, edit, and transform video with text and image prompts. Its Gen-4 Alpha model produces short video clips from text or images, while traditional editing tools sit alongside AI features in one workspace. Output quality impresses at short durations, but longer or complex scenes still require significant iteration.
