Feature Requests

The shorten word gaps feature got bad after the update. Grays out parts that speaker was actually talking and includes those in the cuts which makes the whole thing useless. I can't use it to wipe all the word gaps like before. Can you please fix it?

I use shorten word gaps all the time. However, it's looking for lack of words as silence, not actual silence. I have to manually go through each instance of silence and ensure it's not someone laughing for 3 seconds or a few words that got missed in transcription. It would be lovely to be confident the tool is actually going to do what it says.

After editing just one video all my monthly credits are gone. This is insane. Can you please either adjust credit price by x10 or revise how you account for their usage.

Feature Request: Agent Underlord Access to Comments & Notes Problem: Currently, Agent Underlord cannot see comments, notes, or annotations that users add within Descript (DRIVE) projects. This creates a workflow gap where users must manually transcribe their editing notes into the chat instead of having the agent read them directly. Requested Feature: Enable Agent Underlord to read and reference comments and notes added to Descript projects, including: Timeline comments/annotations Script notes and inline comments Project-level notes or task lists Time-stamped feedback markers Why This Matters: Natural Workflow Integration Users already document their editing decisions using Descript's native commenting tools. Requiring manual duplication into chat breaks the flow. Efficiency Eliminates the need to re-type or screenshot notes, especially for complex projects with multiple change requests. Context Preservation Comments often include timestamp references, visual markers, and rich context that's difficult to communicate through text alone. Collaboration Alignment Many users work in teams where comments are the primary feedback mechanism. The agent should participate in that same communication layer. Example Use Case: A user reviews their 15-minute video, adds 8 timestamped comments like "cut this section" or "add title card here," then asks Agent Underlord: "Can you make the changes from my notes?" The agent would read all comments and execute the requested edits without requiring manual re-entry. Expected Behavior: When a user references "my notes" or "the comments I added," Agent Underlord should be able to query and retrieve comment content, timestamps, and context, then execute the requested changes accordingly.

Hi There, Most of the videos that I record and demo of Software apps/products. Very often, we need to write the blog with same content that we showed in the video. I saw the the new feature where I can generate a blog draft, but it doesn't have the screenshots. Add screenshots from video to blog so we have a very good draft to post on web.

Hooks & Virality Score. Use Ai to automatically generate short form video (30-90 seconds) that has the highest chance of views.

The federal government recently postponed a rule requiring public entities and universities to comply with WCAG 2.1 Level AA under the ADA which includes Audio Description requirements for Video by (now) April 24, 2027. This process can many hours to do manually for even simple videos, and is practically or operationally impossible for many workflows or content types Audio Descriptions allow low vision users to hear a spoken description of the visual content and action happening on sc either during the natural pauses between dialogue (standard), or through pausing the video to allow the visual content to be spoken (extended). AI models have only very recently reached the technical capability of analyzing video frames and accurately summarizing the content over time. When paired with speech-to-text or speech generation models, the descriptions can be largely automated, compared to manually review, scripting, voicing, and editing. Ideal features would include: Auto-generated editable and time-aware text descriptions of on screen visual content Generation of speech audio based on said description, that adapts to updates to edits Ability to detect non-dialogue portions of a video for possible AD audio insertion Automatic insertion of a freeze frame and ripple edit of generated audio Customization of timbre timing and phonetic pronunciation for non-standard words or phrases (think company names, uncommon person names, industry jargon and acronyms) Custom voice selection and cloning. Ability for human review, editing, and customization throughout the process. As a video editing platform on the cutting of integrating AI media tools into real production environments, Descript already has many of the tools in place to help significantly speed up the AD generation for hundreds of thousands of hours of video content in public entities' backlog in addition to new content generated every year while. Very few effective commercial solutions currently exist otherwise. https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG21/ https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/04/20/2026-07663/extension-of-compliance-dates-for-nondiscrimination-on-the-basis-of-disability-accessibility-of-web

Is there a way to make it use the smart transitions between cuts? It does a really good job keeping the speaker centered! (Now that I know how to use it) but it's not very usable right now because of the jump cuts.

Truth is, I don't know. That is the problem. I recorded a short video. when I came back to that project the next day, there was a list of suggestions from underlord. I don't know where the suggestions came from. they are from a prompt I know I didn't enter. and so at the least, I'd like to know how to avoid triggering Underlord to do such things because it appears unbidden. and now 6 credits are gone. Yes, I know, a small number. still, I'm puzzled. the suggestions appear to be suggestions on how to use underlord to help me further, and consume more credits. so if anything, this appears to be a form of internal advertising. agree that I'm likely overstating this however that is how it makes me feel.

Currently, if you close the list of edits made by "Edit for Clarity" you are unable to reopen it. It would be useful if you could reopen it again
