Descript

Edit videos and podcasts like a doc.

Descript Overview

Descript enables editing of video and audio by treating transcripts as editable text. Users record, transcribe, edit, and publish content in one tool. Core workflow centers on text-based changes that update corresponding media, with AI tools for filler word removal, noise reduction, and voice regeneration.
