Don’t ship your API as an MCP
Your API and MCP meet different users with different context, patience, and goals. Here's what we learned about building both in Descript.

The research behind Descript's seamless video edits
How the AI video editing models behind Descript's Video Regenerate and Smooth Jump Cuts make seamless video editing a reality.

Descript speed & performance: faster 4k exports
How Descript rebuilt its app on the WebCodecs API for faster 4K exports. A look at the engineering behind a generational speed improvement.
