Learn how to record screen online for tutorials, presentations, and live sessions. All you need is your browser and Descript.
Get startedThese companies use Descript. Not bad!
01
Set up your screen recording
Open a new or existing project and click the record button or use a keyboard shortcut to launch the screen recorder. Pick which part of your screen you want to capture—entire desktop or just a single window. Decide if you want to include your webcam and mic for picture-in-picture or voiceover.
02
Start your recording
Once you give permission, your screen is live. Whether you’re narrating a tutorial or walking someone through a product demo, just carry on with what you need to show. You can pause or briefly share control if you’re collaborating in a remote session.
03
Stop, edit, and share
Hit stop when you’ve covered everything. You’ll get a new clip in your project that you can edit, trim, and add to existing videos. Don't stress about mishaps—simply cut them out. Then share via a secure link or download your final recording so everyone’s on the same page.
Remote collaboration made easy
Invite guests or teammates to record screen online. Everyone can share their screens, but you stay in control of what’s captured, ensuring a flexible creative flow.
Instant transcripts & editing
When you record screen online, your audio and screen visuals can get automatically transcribed. No more fussing with third-party software to type out what was said.
No extra software headaches
Some tools bury you in complicated settings. In Descript, you don’t have to fuss with layered menus—just pick your screen, click record, and you’re rolling.
Descript’s streamlined controls and AI upgrades save you editing time and keep your focus on creating the best possible content.
Multi-track recording
Screen recordings, webcam videos, and microphone inputs go to separate tracks. Edit or remove layers individually to get the perfect final product.

Cloud-based backup
Everything you record gets stored in the cloud, safe from random computer crashes. Resume and access your projects from anywhere.
Flexible export options
You can export your final screen recording in popular video formats, or simply publish a link to share it instantly. No hoops to jump through.
