Descript

Descript makes editing video and audio as easy as editing text. Record, transcribe, edit, and publish in one tool. Try for free, with powerful upgrades for creators & teams

Descript turns video and audio editing into something as simple as editing a text transcript, combining recording, transcription, editing, and publishing in one tool. It's built for creators and teams who want to skip manual timeline work in favor of editing words directly.

The platform covers podcasting with multitrack audio editing, a screen recorder for capturing footage, and Rooms for recording remote podcasts and video calls. Its AI tools can enhance a recording automatically, generate media such as custom video and images from a prompt, add captions in one click, create AI voice clones or use stock AI voices, and produce accurate automatic transcription; an AI assistant called Underlord can also carry out editing tasks through an API or from inside another AI assistant.

Grouped in the video generation category, Descript follows a freemium model, letting anyone try the product for free before upgrading to paid plans built for creators and teams. Creators wanting to cut editing time can try recording something and edit the resulting transcript to see how much faster the process feels.
