Get started
These companies use Descript. Not bad!
01
Tell AI what your podcast script is about
In a new Descript project, click Ask AI to Write and decide if you want a script, outline, or brainstorming session. You’ll see a prompt template—edit it to include your topic, style, or audience. Press enter, and watch as your script draft appears in seconds.
02
Give the AI feedback to refine your script
Look over the AI-generated script and adjust details however you like. Add or remove talking points, reshape sections in your own words, and refine the structure. The AI offers a solid starting point, but you’re always in control.
03
Record your script or get AI to read it back
Once your script is set, click the Record icon to capture it yourself. Or type ‘@’ to assign it to an AI voice or voice clone. You can tweak the text to adjust the audio, then choose Publish to export the transcript or send your finished podcast episode straight to platforms like YouTube or Spotify.
Tackle the blank page
Worried about staring at an empty page? Descript’s podcast script generator helps you plug in a topic to spark episode outlines, talking points, interview prompts, and more.
Script, record, and edit in one place
Write your podcast script, capture up to 10 remote guests, and edit by tweaking the transcript. Unlike using separate tools like ChatGPT, you can refine AI-generated scripts, record, and edit everything in a single workspace.
Scripts that sound like you—literally
Describe your usual style to the AI so it can shape your script. Alternatively, clone your own voice using Descript. Either way, from initial draft to final publication, it’ll match your natural tone.
