Descript enables editing of video and audio recordings through their text transcripts. Users drag in files for AI transcription, then edit the script to modify the media. It combines document-style editing with scene arrangement for visuals. Core workflow focuses on transcription accuracy, script-based cuts, and addition of AI-generated elements like voice clones and clips. Differentiation appears in text-to-media changes, such as typing corrections that regenerate audio and sync mouth movements. Tools support remote multitrack recording, screen capture, effects, and publishing.
