Regenerate Overview

Descript's regenerate tool adapts to your edits—smooth audio transitions, replace a word or phrase, or sync your video to match updated speech. Just edit the script, and Descript takes care of the rest.

This article covers what regenerate can do and how to choose the right workflow for your project.

What is regenerate?

Regenerate uses AI to repair, rewrite, or re-perform your content. It supports both audio and video updates, depending on what kind of video you're working with and which features you enable.

What you can do with regenerate

  • Smooth transitions or rough edits. Fix choppy cuts or awkward pacing with AI-generated audio that blends naturally into your original content.
  • Change what was said. Replace words or phrases using an AI speaker to update the script audio without re-recording.
  • Sync video to updated audio. Use Video Regenerate (Beta) to update a visual performance alongside regenerated audio.
