Adobe Podcast is a browser-based AI audio tool from Adobe that records, edits and — most notably — enhances voice recordings, removing background noise and echo to make speech sound studio-quality. It is aimed at podcasters, video creators, and anyone who records spoken audio in imperfect rooms, and it runs on a freemium model: a genuinely free tier that processes up to 1 hour of audio per day, plus a Premium plan at $9.99/month that raises the limits and adds video.
Who builds it
Adobe Podcast is made by Adobe and delivered entirely on the web at podcast.adobe.com — there is nothing to install. Its centerpiece is Enhance Speech, an AI model that strips noise, reverb and echo from a voice track; around it sit a browser-based Studio for recording and editing and a Mic Check tool for catching microphone problems before you hit record.
Core features
- Enhance Speech — removes noise and echo from voice recordings and re-synthesizes them to sound as if they were recorded in a studio.
- Studio (Beta) — record, edit and enhance spoken audio directly in the browser, with no desktop software required.
- Mic Check — diagnoses your microphone setup and room before you record, so you fix problems up front.
- Premium strength control — a slider to "dial in the perfect balance of studio-quality and natural environment sound," available on the paid tier.
- Video and batch support (Premium) — enhance MP4/MOV video files and upload multiple files at once, versus the free tier's one-at-a-time, audio-only workflow.
- Speaker-separated downloads (Premium) — export original and speaker-separated audio and create audiograms without Adobe branding.
Pricing
Adobe Podcast is freemium:
- Free ($0): up to 1 hour of processing per day, files up to 30 minutes and 500 MB, audio only, one file at a time, no enhancement-strength adjustment.
- Premium ($9.99/month or $99.99/year): up to 4 hours per day, files up to 2 hours and 1 GB, video support, bulk upload, the enhancement-strength slider, speaker-separated audio and branding removal. A 30-day free trial is offered.
Who it's for
Adobe Podcast fits podcasters, YouTubers and remote or hybrid workers who record speech in less-than-ideal rooms and want fast, one-click cleanup rather than a full audio workstation. The free tier is enough for casual creators publishing short episodes — an hour of processing a day covers most weekly shows. Regular publishers, teams working with longer recordings, or anyone enhancing video will hit the free limits quickly and need Premium's longer files, daily headroom and video support.
