Descript
A.I. video and audio editor that lets you edit by editing text
Descript is an A.I. video and audio editor that lets you edit by editing text. You record or upload your media, Descript's A.I. transcribes it, and then you cut, trim, and rearrange the video by changing the transcript.
The pages describe an A.I. co-editor called Underlord, plus one-click tools such as background-noise removal, filler-word removal, and clip creation. You can also add captions, translate video, and record remotely. There is a free plan, and paid plans for individuals, teams, and enterprises. Descript says its security includes SOC 2 Type II certification, SAML SSO and SCIM, and GDPR compliance.

Our take (opinion)
Best for
- Podcasters and video creators who want to edit by working with a transcript
- Small teams who need to make video without a dedicated video team
- People who want to repurpose long recordings into short clips
Watch out for
- The free plan has limits, such as 60 media minutes per month, so heavier use needs a paid plan
- A.I. features use credits, and each plan includes a set number per month
- Prices are shown per person, so team costs can add up
