Create your Descript Account

You can set up your Descript account in a couple of different ways. Sign up with an email and password, or sign up using Google (Google OAuth).

Sign up with your Google account

  1. Navigate to web.descript.com
  2. Click the Continue with Google button.
    • Select a Google account to connect to Descript. If you aren't signed into a Google account, enter the email address and password associated with the Google account you'd like to connect.

Moving forward, you'll be able to sign in to Descript by clicking the Continue with Google button.

Sign up with your email address

  1. Navigate to web.descript.com. 
  2. Enter your email address, then select continue with email.
  3. Descript will send you a one-time passcode by email. Open a new browser tab or window to retrieve your passcode–closing the tab or window will invalidate the one-time password. 
  4. If you are signed out and need to sign back in at a later date, you'll repeat this process to re-access Descript.
Prefer to use a password?

Click use a password instead, then select sign up or reset password. Once you verify your email with the one-time passcode, you'll be able to set an account password.

Your password must be at least 9 characters long and strong enough to pass the security check.

You don’t need to mix in special characters or uppercase letters, but your password can’t be too common or easy to guess (like “password123”). Descript uses a smart strength checker to help you choose a secure password.

Download the Descript desktop app

Once you've created your account, you can continue working in your browser at web.descript.com or download the desktop application.
