About Descript:

In Descript you can make any video you want, any way you want. All you need is an idea; it helps if you know how to type. With the world’s first and only AI co-editor, Underlord, you can make a video just by describing your vision. It will create, edit, and design your video—all under your direction. It’s got the taste and judgment you want in a creative partner and the expertise you need from a video editor. And it’s tireless—so you can stay focused on getting the result you’re after while it does all the dirty work. And when you want to get dirty, you don’t need special knowledge or skills. If you can edit text, you can edit video with Descript. It’s loaded with automated design tools, plus the friendliest timeline editor you’ve ever seen, a built-in recorder, and hosted publishing that makes collaboration as easy as sending a link. With Descript’s powerful AI and intuitive tools, your creativity is unbounded—freed from the limitations of what you don’t know, and what AI can’t know. Create product demos, training videos, screen recordings, video messages, podcasts, or social clips.
