Async Creator

Async is shaping a new standard for content creation with a fully integrated, AI-powered platform designed for end-to-end video, audio, and voice production. Its browser-based platform turns ideas into ready-to-publish content in seconds, bringing recording, AI generation, editing, and publishing into one cohesive environment - no tool-switching required. At the center is chat-based editing. Instead of hunting through timelines and menus, creators just type what they want - tighten the intro, add Spanish subtitles, cut the filler - and the edit happens.

Descript

In Descript you can make any video you want, any way you want. All you need is an idea; it helps if you know how to type. With the world’s first only AI co-editor, Underlord, you can make a video just by describing your vision. It will create, edit, and design your video—all under your direction. It’s got the taste and judgment you want in a creative partner and the expertise you need from a video editor. And it’s tireless—so you can stay focused on getting the result you’re after while it does all the dirty work. And when you want to get dirty, you don’t need special knowledge or skills.
