I no longer spend my time analyzing frame after frame, decoding what is said, and creating manual captions. The use of AI in this instance is constructive\! > > **Cons**: I think I wish there were more caption designs for the videos that I edit -- just to switch up the appearance. > > I was introduced to this platform a few years ago, and it has been a game-changer so far, thanks to its ease of use, accuracy, and high production quality. ----- ### "Descript - Review From A Rookie" — 5.0/5 > **Memphis Mike** | *29 April 2024* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like the text based editing feature. The AI tools are good as well. > > **Cons**: The pricing is a little high. I have to spend too much time cleaning up the transcript between transcript errors and Speaker labels, If those worked well, I could greatly reduce the time it takes me to get a podcast ready to publish. > > Overall ok. Fix the 2 issues described above and I go from an 8 to a 9.5 ----- ### "A perfect tool for video editing with adding caption." — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *20 March 2026* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love the captions very much. With Descript, I am able to add caption to all my Youtube videos. Also the transcription is so smooth and fast. > > **Cons**: Its a bit slow to edit and make changes to captions. You will have to highlight the sentences one after the other. > > Its been fantastic using this tool. Especially the monthly free credits is exceptional and non like others. ----- ### "Lost Edits, Unclear Answers, and a Refund Framed as a “Courtesy”" — 1.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *20 January 2026* | Professional Training & Coaching | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: Descript is easy to use for recording and basic editing, and the workflow is convenient when everything works. The web app makes it simple to access projects without installing heavy software, and the built-in tools for transcription and quick edits can save time. > > **Cons**: Reliability and support follow-through. Projects edited months earlier appeared as raw recordings later, with missing cuts and effects. Support could not recover the edits and did not clearly explain why affected projects had backup files while truly raw projects did not. The response felt dismissive. > > We had a very frustrating experience with Descript and their support. We used Descript to record and edit several videos. The edits were done around May, mainly using the web app. When we opened those same projects in December, many of them looked like raw recordings again. Cuts were missing and effects were missing. Support and engineering told us they checked their logs and only saw “creation → recording → transcription,” and they said they could not find proof the edits were ever made. That explanation does not match what we saw in the app. The affected videos show two project backup files. In Descript, backups only appear after you start editing (the app even says so). But when we checked other projects that we know are raw, those do not show any backup files. We asked a simple question: if backups appear only after editing, why do the “raw” affected videos have two backups while truly raw videos have none? They did not answer this clearly. One rep also said they noticed a spike in network errors in May. That is exactly when the edits were done, which makes it very likely the edits did not save or sync correctly. Instead of admitting this could be the cause, support kept pointing to “no logs of edits” and that it was our fault. They refunded one month, but called it a “courtesy.” That was disappointing. We also stopped using Descript while they were investigating because we did not feel it was safe to keep working in the platform. If that one-month refund was meant to cover the time we could not use the service during the investigation, that still does not address the real damage. We lost many hours of work, we paid our editor hourly, and we paid for the subscription for convenience and reliability. For the amount of inconvenience and loss we experienced, one month is clearly not enough. ----- ### "Descript is the tool to use\!" — 4.0/5 > **Hawa** | *22 December 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I appreciate how you can upload a full video on the descipt platform and it takes the best video clips for you. Descript saves you time on editing and is user friendly. No more long hours wasted on editing. It is a platform for beginners who are learning to edit. Great at transcriptions and removing filler words. > > **Cons**: I find that if you have larger files it may take longer to edit and may slow performance on your chrome book or an older computer. It depends what type of desktop your using. If you can afford the higher tiers they have great features. > > My overall experience was great I enjoyed the tool learning curve. It’s great for someone like me who is learning to edit. Descript makes it easy and enjoyable. It has strong AI features as well. I would definitely use it again. ----- Page: 1 / 9\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.com.sg/software/202803/descript?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.com.sg/software/202803/descript) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
