Use the search bar to find any file, project, folder, or asset in your drive. Search matches file names, transcript content, and (for Enterprise plans) what’s visually on screen. Click a transcript result to jump to that exact moment in the file.

Search your drive

  1. Click the Search bar at the top of the app.
  2. Type a keyword, part of a file name, a word spoken in a recording, or a description of the content.
  3. Search returns results across your entire drive:
    • Projects: matched by project name or transcript content
    • Media files: matched by file name
    • Transcripts: matched by spoken content; results show a snippet of the matching line
    • Folders: matched by folder name
    • Layout packs: matched by pack name
    • Visual matches (Enterprise only): Find images and videos by what appears on screen, rather than just names and transcripts.Type “dog at the beach” and Descript will surface the exact moment that matches that description.
  4. Select a result from the list to open it, or press Enter to see even more results.
