Descript
AI Video & Audio Editing Platform
About this tool
Descript is an AI-powered audio and video editing suite built around its revolutionary transcript-based editor. Once media is uploaded, Descript automatically generates a transcript. Users can edit their content by simply editing text—cut words, remove filler terms like “um” or “uh,” and adjust pacing—and the timelines update seamlessly. Advanced AI features include Overdub voice cloning, Studio Sound noise cleaning, AI green screen replacement, and eye contact correction. It also offers AI avatars, auto-generated captions, video highlight reels, and translation/dubbing across 25+ languages. The platform supports branded templates via Brand Studio, a royalty-free media library, and remote recording Rooms for multi-user sessions. With desktop and web availability, plus a REST API, Descript powers millions of creators, businesses, and educational teams with streamlined, efficient editing that sculpts audio and video as easily as editing a document.
