Descript

What is Descript?

Descript turns video editing into text editing. It transcribes your video, then lets you edit the transcript — cutting words from the text removes them from the video. Revolutionary for podcasters and YouTubers.

Key Features

• Text-based editing — edit video by editing transcript
• Overdub — clone your voice to fix mistakes with text
• Filler word removal — removes ums and ahs automatically
• Screen recording — built-in recorder with AI enhancement
