These companies use Descript. Not bad!

Less work, more flow

Make video so good it’ll surprise you. Write it, record it, then dress it up with automated design. Or just describe what you want, and let Underlord do the rest.

Edit or generate a script

Write your own script and ask Underlord for feedback—then let it make the edits for you. Or start fresh: tell Underlord what you’re thinking, let it write a script, and give it your feedback.

Give it a head-turning look

Apply Descript's professionally designed layouts and smart transitions in a click, or let Underlord design your video. To change the look, ask Underlord for new colors and fonts—boom, done.

Grab some eye-catching visuals

Use an avatar so you don’t have to go near a camera. Keep things engaging with GIFs, B-roll, and music from Descript’s media library. Or tell Underlord to generate a custom image for something nobody’s ever seen.

Make it pretty

Apply layouts for instant, elegant design. You have dozens to choose from, all created by video pros—but you can customize them however you want. Or save your own branded layout packs for quick recognition.

Watch it glide

Smart transitions automatically add fades and other animations between scenes, giving your audience a silky smooth ride, and saving you all the time you’d spend adding that stuff yourself.

Keep it interesting

Descript’s stock library is stuffed with GIFs, B-roll, music, and images to keep things engaging. Or create something nobody’s ever seen before with AI image generation.

Text-based editing

Whether you record in Descript or drag in a recording, you’ll get an instant transcript. Then edit your video by editing the text. It’s that simple.

Wildly useful AI tools

One tool to create all of this

Or just some of it. Descript gives you the flexibility to meet your audiences wherever they are.

Whatever your business needs

Video can help almost everybody on your team communicate—with customers and prospects, or with each other. Descript makes it possible for all of them to say what they have to say, with video that looks and sounds good.  No video team required.
