About Descript
Descript edits video by editing text. The transcription becomes the timeline—delete a sentence from the transcript, and the video cuts match. Overdub even lets you generate voice from text.
The approach makes video editing accessible. Filler word removal is automatic. Screen recording handles creation too.
Content creators who find traditional video editing intimidating choose Descript for text-based editing that feels natural.
