Descript
Video and podcast editor where you edit the recording by editing its transcript, with AI cleanup, captions, and voice tools.
Overview
Descript is a video and audio editor built around the transcript. You record in Descript or drop in footage, a script, or a call recording, and it transcribes it, so cutting words from the text cuts them from the video. One-click tools remove filler words and retakes, clean up background noise, correct eye contact, and fix lighting. Underlord, its AI co-editor, can turn a raw recording into a tighter cut on request. You can add captions, generate clips for YouTube, TikTok, or LinkedIn, translate and dub into other languages, and create a voice clone to patch lines. A free plan lets you try it before upgrading.
