Embed any video you create or upload in Descript with a fully-featured video player that includes a searchable transcript, timestamped comments, granular permissions, and more. Edit and update videos to publish your changes everywhere your video is embedded. It's that easy.
Coding can be very finicky, and the less time you have to spend messing with embedded video code, the better. Luckily, Descript takes the complexity, and the drudgery, out of it. So you can drop your YouTube video’s embed code into your website’s HTML or upload a video directly to your page.
Open a new project in Descript, and drag and drop the video you want to embed—or create a video from scratch. Once your file is imported, Descript will automatically start transcribing it.
You can edit the generated transcript to edit your video by cutting or rearranging parts just like a doc. Use the 'C' key to enter Correct mode to fix transcription errors without affecting the video, especially if you plan on enabling the transcript in your Descript video player embed. You can also add visual effects like keyframe animation, shapes, and transitions.
Once you’re happy with your video, it’s time to embed it. Click Publish to generate a web link or HTML code to embed your video on your website or in Notion pages, Twitter posts, presentation slides, and more. Come back to make edits later, then update your changes to push them to all your video embeds at once.

The “Share” button is there in the right corner. Descript lets you embed your video instantly if you don't want to pay additional hosting fees or have ads interrupting your content.
Say, after you’ve published your video, you want to restore something you accidentally deleted. No problem — Descript’s editing software is non-destructive and saves all your original content to the cloud so you can always undo your edits.
After making your updated video, you can immediately publish it to existing URLs and replace your previous content. You don’t have to fuss with HTML code scrubbing out-of-date videos from your site.
Embedding a video lets you play a video hosted elsewhere — like YouTube, TikTok, Vimeo, or Wistia — on your site without sending your audience to another page. It makes for a more seamless viewing experience. It also means you don’t have to pay for bandwidth and makes sharing your video more manageable, which is a boon to your SEO.
It only takes simple copy-paste to embed a YouTube video onto your WordPress site or social media. When you click “Share” with YouTube or Descript, it generates a link that you can plug into the site’s HTML. The video plays there rather than directing you away to the URL of the video.
While it’s good to have your own videos on your site, having your video’s thumbnail on YouTube is a great way to make an impression with a new audience. If they click it, it can lead to a playlist of your other videos, and you can hook these people. Think of YouTube as a library: a library with lots of ads (which is why we also let you host your videos).
The video embed code connects a video to a page and determines how it appears in the inline frame (iframe). If you know your way around CSS, Javascript, or HTML5, you can resize the video or add elements like autoplay.

Descript's unique video embed player includes a transcript with built-in auto-scroll, commenting, and search functionality, making it more versatile and engaging than other video embeds.
All your video embeds are easy to update since they're created from an all-in-one video editor that makes editing content as easy as a doc.
