Descript
AI-powered audio and video editor that lets you edit media by editing text transcripts.
Overview
Descript is a revolutionary audio and video editing platform that lets you edit media by editing text. Upload a video or audio file, and Descript automatically transcribes it. Then edit the transcript — delete words, rearrange sentences, add text — and the media follows. It includes AI features like filler word removal, eye contact correction, studio sound enhancement, and AI voice cloning for corrections. Descript is essential for podcasters, YouTubers, and content creators who want professional editing without learning complex video editing software. It also includes screen recording, AI-generated clips, and publishing tools.
