Q: Here's why I use Descript to edit my podcast: 1.
Studio Sound - They've built an amazing tool that completely cleans up audio. I've fixed audio from people that call in via phone, use a terrible headset microphone, or even just use the microphone built into their webcam. It's a phenomenal feature and it's literally a "click of a button."
2. Transcription - The transcription is okay at best, but it's helpful for the "filler word removal" tool that they have. It's another one of those "check the boxes" kind of tools and as long as the content is transcribed correctly, I can get rid of all the "ums," "uhs," doubled words, and way more that I never check.
3. Audiograms - I don't have to sign up for a tool like Audiogram. I can just use the built-in feature and it's pretty solid. Sure, there are better looking ones out there that I can pay for with more features. But the one that's built in is pretty amazing.
4. Integrations - I can automatically upload to YouTube, podcasts, and more by clicking a button. I don't have to export, sign-in, upload, etc.
• How does yours do with this stuff today?
• Any samples/examples?
• If you are missing features that I mentioned, or yours just aren't the same level of quality or ease of use, do you plan to bridge those gaps?
• What does your roadmap look like?

May 15, 2024A: Hi emeffinsteve,
Thanks for your feedback and questions. Responding inline:
There has been a lot of comparison with other speech-to-text editors.
The main difference between Wisecut and other speech-to-text editors is that we are automatic-first. By using AI, we aim to make all the edits for you upfront. Then we present your story where you can export directly or make tweaks and customizations if needed. This vision will guide us now and in the future. The more our algorithms evolve, the more automatic editing Wisecut will do for you.
Here are some features that we have right now that you might not see in other speech-to-text software:
📷 📷 Facial Recognition' Punch In/Out'
🔊 AI-powered Audio Ducking and Voice Booster
🎵 Smart Background Music (the best automatic music editing in the market🔥)
🌐 Subtitles Auto Translation
✨AI Media Library (you can search for tags and even visuals to find content within Wisecut)
🤖🔪Another difference you may notice is that Wisecut removes all the pauses automatically instead of removing them one by one.
📱Facial Recognition Aspect Ratio Export: automatically convert exported videos into different aspect ratios like 16:9, 9:16, and 1:1 (landscape, vertical and square.)
As for the features you mentioned, here are the ones we have:
1) Studio Sound - We have something similar we call Audio Enhancer and AI Voice Booster.
2)Transcription - We also work with transcriptions. It makes it easy to find and remove the content in bulk or even create a new version of your video by using Wisecut scenes. Filler sounds auto removal is in our roadmap.
3)Audiograms - We have audiograms, but it's basic audiograms for now. We plan to offer more options in the future.
4)Integrations - We have integration with YouTube. We plan to add more integrations in the future.
Here's our roadmap:
