### Edit For Clarity

Automatically clean up wordiness, retakes, filler, and off-topic segments. Adjust the intensity slider to control how aggressive the edits are, and optionally apply AI speech to reword small sections for smoother delivery.

### Studio Sound

Enhance voice quality and remove background noise with [Studio Sound](/effects-animations-transitions/studio-sound). This effect improves clarity, removes room echo, and smooths inconsistent audio across speakers.

### Remove Filler Words

Automatically detect and remove words like “um,” “uh,” and “you know” from your transcript and audio.

[Learn more about removing filler words](/script-editing/filler-words)

### Remove Retakes

Remove repeated lines or false starts with a single click. This tool detects where you’ve re-recorded a phrase and marks earlier versions for removal. Edits appear as [ignored text](/script-editing/delete-vs-ignore), and you can restore or delete them as needed.

### Shorten Word Gaps

Adjust long pauses to fine-tune the pacing of your audio. Preview gaps individually or shorten them all at once.

### Add Chapters

Automatically generate chapter markers and titles for your video or podcast. Add them to your script as [markers](/script-editing/markers-chapters) or copy a timestamped list for your share page or show notes.
