Get started
These companies use Descript. Not bad!
01
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
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
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.
