Descript

About

Descript is a video and audio editor built around the transcript: you record or upload footage, Descript transcribes it, and you edit the video by editing the text — delete a sentence and that moment disappears from the timeline. Its AI co-editor, Underlord, can turn a raw recording into a tight cut and handle editing tasks you describe in plain language. Other AI tools include Studio Sound for one-click noise removal and voice enhancement, filler-word and retake removal, eye-contact correction, lighting fixes, dynamic captions, and clip generation for YouTube, TikTok and LinkedIn. Descript also handles screen and remote recording, translation, and publishing. The free plan gives one hour of media per month with 720p watermarked exports; paid plans add more media hours, AI credits and higher-resolution exports.
