How does Descript’s AI video editor work?

Descript’s AI video editor lets you edit your video simply by editing text. It automatically transcribes your footage, so when you change or delete words in the transcript, your video updates instantly.

Can Descript automatically edit my video for me?

Yes. Descript’s AI co-editor, Underlord, can edit your video automatically based on your direction. It can tighten cuts, remove silences or filler words, improve audio, and even add visuals or captions—all while keeping your creative intent intact.

Can I edit video like a document in Descript?

Yes. Descript turns your video into a text transcript, so you can delete words, rearrange sentences, or copy-paste clips the same way you’d edit text in a doc. It’s the fastest, most intuitive way to make precise edits without a complex timeline.

Does Descript remove filler words automatically?

Yes. Descript’s Remove Filler Words tool detects and deletes “ums,” “uhs,” and other verbal fillers with one click. It cleans up your audio and video instantly—saving hours of manual editing.
