Descript is a collaborative audio/video editor, from the company of the same name in San Francisco, that works like a doc. It includes transcription, a screen recorder, publishing, full multitrack editing, and AI tools.
It is perfect for editing all the unwanted words from your recording. It does this within a minute or two. You can also specify what you want to remove or change. Then it makes the changes seamlessly to Camtasia with the edited audio and synched video to match. All within minutes. It saves me so much time and it's fantastic at it.
Transcription of internal presentations and web conferences. It's great for capturing and transcribing the audio from presentations, demos, etc. which can then be used to develop training materials, blog posts, etc.
Podcasts. Makes it really easy to record, edit, and publish video or audio podcasts.
Promotional videos. Streamlines and accelerates the process for developing videos.
Audiate, like I have said before, is very easy to use and its ability to pick out unwanted phrases, edit and synchronise with Camtasia within minutes is superb! It would just be great to be able to do a one-off purchase of a product rather than a subscription.
Descript is by far superior to the other editing software you can get on Apple computers. It's able to do a lot more and really save us tons of time. Other Adobe apps are great, but take a while to learn. Descript is very user-friendly, making it easy to start from day one with very little training.
I can get video completed much more quickly and cheaply
We can produce more video content because of the speed with which we can have a finished product
We can have shorter timelines for example I record on Monday and we publish on Tuesday which wouldn't be otherwise possible with other methods I've used
