Easily create professional explainer videos to illustrate the value of your products and services—without any video editing experience. Take advantage of video templates, AI voice overs, animated subtitles, royalty-free stock media, a built-in script writing assistant, and more to explain your offering to customers.
Get started ->
In a new Descript project, paste in or write out your explainer video script and then click the Record icon to record your camera, microphone, and/or screen. You can also drag and drop your own media assets to upload them, like your logo, product demo, or customer interviews. Descript’s powerful AI automatically generates a transcript that you can use to edit your video.
You can remove filler words and shorten long pauses in your video explanation by right-clicking the transcript and selecting Remove filler words. You can even cut portions of your video by deleting unwanted text from the transcript. This way, you can cut your footage to the best parts in minutes. You can even clone your voice with AI and use Overdub to fix mistakes in your recorded speech without rerecording. Creating and adjusting scenes is as simple as adding a ‘/’ anywhere in your transcript or re-arranging your scenes by dragging the thumbnails.
Finally, you can make your marketing video more interesting by adding transitions between scenes or stock videos and music by clicking the Media icon to access Descript’s built-in stock library. Hit Publish when you’re set, and export your explainer video to your computer, share it through social media, or get a shareable URL you can send to others.
AI script writing assistant
The secret to a good explainer video starts with a great script. With Descript, you can write in the same place you record and edit your video with help from AI to bounce ideas around, rewrite sections, or ask how a specific message might land with your target audience.
Built-in recording studio for capturing tutorials and demos
Record your camera, microphone, screen, or even multiple customer interviews remotely to produce all the footage you need to make the explainer video you envision.
Go from script to video faster with text-based video editing
