If you're a SquadCast user joining Descript, this guide will help you connect your existing SquadCast account to a Descript account, redeem your offer, and start editing SquadCast recordings inside Descript. You'll also learn how your subscription and team setup will work after linking your accounts.
Now that Rooms is built directly into Descript, there’s no need to maintain both SquadCast and Descript accounts. Rooms (Descript’s built-in conferencing and recording tool) lets you meet, record, and collaborate all in one place. It’s simpler, faster, and fully integrated. Learn how to use Rooms.
Get Descript and link your accounts
- Log into your SquadCast account. If you don’t have one, create a new SquadCast account and skip to step 3.
- Click the banner at the top of your SquadCast dashboard. This will prompt you to connect your account to Descript.
- Sign up or log in to Descript. You’ll be redirected to a SquadCast page once signed in.
- Connect your accounts. Follow the prompts, review the offer, and click Redeem Offer. If you’re part of multiple SquadCast orgs, choose the one you want to link.
-
Choose your plan. You’ll land on Descript’s subscription page—select the plan you want. Once linked, billing is handled by Descript, and SquadCast will no longer charge you.
- Start editing. You can now import and edit your SquadCast recordings directly in Descript.

Managing your subscription
After linking your accounts, Descript manages your subscription. You can view or update your plan in your Descript account by visiting the Subscription tab or by opening the app and navigating to Settings > Plan. Learn more about managing your Descript + SquadCast subscription.

Next steps for teams
