The Pairing Mode — Private remote podcast recorder.
The Problem

Remote podcast recording eats hours to a dropped Zoom call, laggy cloud tools, or a guest whose WiFi cuts out mid-story. Existing platforms either cost too much for hobbyists or produce audio that sounds like a phone call.

What I Built

A private, invite-only recording hub for up to 4 people. Every participant captures locally in-browser, so the recording keeps going even if the internet drops. Files upload after the session so hosts get studio-quality audio without the studio.

How It Works
  • Local-first browser capture — survives WiFi drops mid-session
  • Up to 4 participants per room, invite-only for privacy
  • Post-session upload keeps recording quality independent of connection
  • 3-day retention window — grab your files, then they're gone

The Outcome

Turns a laptop and a browser tab into a studio-grade recording rig — no downloads, no expensive gear, no lost takes when the router flakes.
