Voice & audio
Descript
Edit audio and video like you're editing a Word doc — just delete the words you don't want
Using Descript is like editing a podcast by editing a Google Doc — cut the words you don't want, and the audio cuts itself.
Descript turns your podcast, video, or voice recording into text, so you can edit it just by editing the transcript. Delete a sentence in the text, and it disappears from the audio. It also lets you remove 'ums', add AI-generated voiceovers in your own voice, and work on projects with your team. It's the easiest way for non-editors to produce clean, professional-sounding content.

Turn any written words into natural-sounding speech with voices that actually sound human
Descript is an all-in-one editor that helps you clean up podcasts and videos by editing the transcript, while OpenAI TTS is a simpler service that just converts written text into spoken audio for you to use however you want.
Turn a sentence into a full song — complete with vocals, lyrics, and a real chorus you'll actually want to replay.
Descript helps you edit podcasts and videos by editing their transcripts, while Suno generates original songs with vocals from a text prompt — so they're really for different jobs, not direct competitors.
Turn any text into stunningly realistic speech — in any voice, any language, any emotion
Descript is built for editing podcasts and videos by tweaking a transcript, while ElevenLabs is focused on generating realistic AI speech from text you type in — so they overlap on voice but solve pretty different jobs.
