Descript
AI-editing for every kind of video, as easy as typing
Descript is an AI-powered video and podcast editing platform that lets users record, transcribe, and edit media as easily as editing a text document. It features an agentic AI co-editor called Underlord that can handle editing tasks automatically, alongside tools like Studio Sound, filler word removal, and clip creation. It targets both individual creators and teams who want to produce polished video content without a dedicated video team.
