Descript
A few years ago, Descript was the only option for text-based editing of audio and video, and when the company merged with Squadcast for remote recording for one reasonable price, it was a no-brainer for me. But I found myself using the editing features less. Transcription has become something of a commodity in tools, and many of the features I used to use, such as an interactive transcript, I feel I no longer need. Recently, Descript, like many companies, is adding a bunch of AI features I don’t need or can get elsewhere. Oddly, Squadcast remains one of the cheapest options for remote recording, so the Descript features are almost a bonus on top of that. I cancelled my subscription a few months ago, but I renew it, I am still deciding.
