Edits video and audio by editing the transcript, with AI cleanup, captions and clips.
Descript is an AI video and voice tool. Edits video and audio by editing the transcript, with AI cleanup, captions and clips. Pricing: Free plan, paid tiers. Agent access: MCP and API surfaces.
Descript edits video and audio through the transcript, so changing the words changes the footage. It records screen and remote sessions, transcribes them, removes filler words and retakes, adds captions, cleans audio with Studio Sound, and corrects eye contact and lighting.
It also generates media from a prompt, clones voices, cuts clips for social, translates video and applies brand styling. An assistant called Underlord runs editing tasks, and Descript lists an API and an MCP server for editing video from code or from inside an AI assistant. Sign up is free, with paid plans.
