Visit DescriptPricing page

Descript edits spoken-word video and audio from a transcript, with screen recording, overdub, and studio sound tools. Pricing is at descript.com/pricing. It assumes you have footage. It does not generate a scene from a prompt.

The best video tool here when the source is a real recording. Generative video tools do not replace it.
