What can I make with Descript’s AI templates?
Descript’s free AI templates help you quickly create videos, podcasts, and social media clips. Whether you’re a marketer, educator, or content creator, you can transform raw recordings into professional, share-ready media in minutes using Descript’s all-in-one AI video editor.
How to remove retakes from a recording
Use the Remove retakes template to auto-detect false starts and repeated sections, then let Descript's AI co-editor cut them. Review the transcript and make quick text edits to polish pacing without manual timeline scrubbing.
Can I edit AI-cleaned audio after retake removal
Yes. After Underlord trims false starts and repeats, you can tweak the transcript, restore lines, or split clips. Fine-tune timing in the timeline and keep any intentional repeats the AI flagged.
Who should use retake removal for faster podcasts
Podcasters and interviewers who riff or restart often. The template cleans filler openings and duplicate takes, so you publish tighter episodes while preserving speaker intent and conversational flow.
Does this work for video with repeated takes
Yes. Descript's AI video agent removes repeated lines and false starts in video, then you can adjust cuts by editing text or nudging edit points on the timeline to keep natural on-camera delivery.
