About

Descript is the default tool for voice-led long-form video and podcast editing. The transcript-as-timeline workflow makes it 10x faster to cut filler words, rearrange segments, or write callouts than a frame-based editor. Recent releases added Overdub (AI voice cloning of your own voice), Studio Sound (one-click audio cleanup), and Eye Contact (gaze correction). Best paired with Opus Clip for shorts and CapCut for platform-native styling.

Key features

  • Transcript-based editing
  • AI voice cloning (Overdub)
  • One-click audio cleanup (Studio Sound)
