Audio & video Free plan + paid
Open Descript

Edit video and audio as easily as editing a document: delete words from the text to cut the video.

What is Descript?

Descript turns your video or audio into a text transcript. Edit the text, deleting words or moving sentences, and the video changes to match. It also removes filler words, improves sound and adds captions.

Think of it as editing video like a Word document.

What you can do with it

  • Edit by text: cut and rearrange using the transcript
  • Remove filler words: "um" and "uh" gone in one click
  • Studio Sound: make audio sound professional
  • Captions: automatic subtitles

Get started in 3 steps

  1. Go to descript.com and sign up free
  2. Upload a video or record directly
  3. Edit the transcript and export
