Descript changes how editing works: instead of cutting on a timeline, you edit the transcript and the video or audio follows. You can record, transcribe, edit and publish all in one tool.

An AI co-editor can carry out edits for you when directed, or you can use the manual tools yourself. It is used for podcasts, social clips and longer videos. You can get started for free before committing to a paid plan.
