Descript

Descript is an AI video and audio editor where users edit by editing text/transcripts, with a workflow that covers recording/import, transcript-based editing, refinement (audio/video enhancements), and sharing/export.

Underlord is Descript’s AI assistant/co-editor designed to perform editing tasks by acting on the transcript and automating steps like filler removal, clip selection, and generating/show-notes style outputs from requests.

Descript describes releasing a “reborn Underlord” in Labs as an agentic AI editing experience that can create or edit a video by telling it what you want.

Descript uses Overdub voice cloning to enable editing of voiceover-like audio by script/text workflows.

Studio Sound is Descript’s AI-based regenerative approach for improving voice quality and reducing noise/echo for audio associated with recordings and media edits.

AI Actions are described by Descript as automation to repurpose content into downstream formats such as blog posts, social media clips, and summaries.

Scenes is described as a new way to structure visuals: users create scenes by typing a slash, arrange B-roll/images, apply templates, and use AI green screen background removal—while maintaining a full timeline editor under the hood.

Rooms is described as Descript’s integrated collaborative recording studio for multi-person recording, integrated into Descript so editing can begin after recording.
