AI Actions in the Look Good category help you improve the visual quality of your project. Use them to sharpen your delivery, frame your subject, or add visual polish.
If you haven’t enabled New Underlord in Descript Labs, you’ll see the Look Good actions in the Underlord panel. It’s the same set of AI tools—just under a different name.
Underlord is Descript’s new AI co-editor that can run these actions for you—or you can still access them manually in the AI Actions panel. All users get unlimited access to Underlord through the end of June, so it’s the perfect time to give it a try. Learn more and opt in.
Quick Design
Quick Design creates a polished first draft of your video. It automatically adds layouts, formatting, and B-roll to your script using your choice of AI-generated visuals or stock media. Best for single speaker, single track, single scene projects with a script no longer than 300 words.
Eye contact
Correct your gaze with the Eye Contact effect. It adjusts your eyes to make it appear as if you’re looking directly at the camera — useful if you’re reading offscreen or getting distracted.

Center active speaker (BETA)
Keep the active speaker centered in the frame automatically. This feature reframes your video in real time based on who’s talking — a great fit for vertical formats and short-form content.
Note: Works best when video and audio are combined on the same track.

Generate an image
Use AI to create original visuals by describing what you want (e.g. cartoon-style headshot, abstract gradient background, product image with white backdrop). Descript generates multiple 1024x1024 options to choose from.
