Zoom to Descript

Just open Descript and connect your Zoom account. Now open any Zoom cloud recording—it’ll automatically be transcribed and set up as a project. Just like that you’re ready to start editing—with the ease and precision you only get from Descript.

Skip all the drudgery. Just start editing.

  • Import all the views

    Descript brings in every view of your recording—active speaker, gallery, and screen sharing—so you can choose which to use and switch among them as you please.

  • Combined and aligned

    When you import a Zoom recording, Descript will transcribe, add speaker labels for you, and keep your audio and video aligned as you edit.

  • Just like you set it up

    Whatever quality you recorded in, that’s what you’ll see in Descript. With all the same views and layouts you saw in Zoom. Nothing lost, nothing changed.

Edit your recordings like you edit a doc

Use your backspace key to make cuts. Fix audio mistakes just by typing. Descript makes editing video and audio as easy as editing text—with professional-grade timeline editing for total control and precision.
