Your new video team: the whole newsroom
You don’t need a bigger production crew to make video at scale, on deadline. You just need Descript.
These companies use Descript. Not bad!
Built for digital newsrooms moving at newsroom speed
Enable reporters, editors, and producers to create podcasts, video, and social clips themselves — without waiting on a central production team.
More content. Same team.
Descript turns reporters, editors, designers, and everyone into audio and video creators. So you’re publishing more, faster—and nobody burns out.
Every reporter a video editor
With Descript, reporters cut their own video, in the field or the newsroom, by editing text. No new skills to learn, no production team to wait on.
One story. All the formats.
A reporter files a story. By tomorrow it’s a podcast, a YouTube explainer, and three social clips. All from a single edit.
No compromising on quality
Instantly clean up noisy field recordings and bad audio with AI. Fact-check the transcript for accuracy. Add captions and subtitles, even translations, in a click.
Scale digital content without scaling your production team
Digital-first journalism needs tools built for speed, accuracy, and distributed teams — not broadcast-era workflows.
Stories ship when the reporter is ready — not when production is free
Underlord is your AI co-editor—just give it your product shots and screen recordings, and it’ll turn them into a finished, polished demo video. All you have to do is direct.
One edit. Every format.
A correspondent files a story from Berlin. By tomorrow, it's a podcast, a YouTube explainer, and three social clips — all from the same edit.
Newsroom-quality output. No audio engineer required.
Studio Sound cleans up noisy press conferences and field recordings. Transcript-based editing catches every quote. Editorial rigor without Avid-level infrastructure.
Faster, better, more accurate video—at scale
Cloud Collaboration
Your correspondent in Berlin. Your editor in New York. Same project, no VPN, no shared drives, no Avid MediaCentral.
If your plan is to scale your academy large and globally, and you have a small team that you need to make mighty, Descript is a really powerful companion to have.
