Descript edits a video by editing its transcript. Studio does that for one clip too, then checks the captions against each platform's buttons and stamps the file SAFE or REJECT.

Media hours per person vs no counter

Using them together
Edit a longer project in Descript and export it without captions; CapQA burns them inside the 900×1400 safe zone, checks the Spark Ads layout and stamps the file. A single clip can go straight to Studio.
What CapQA does not do
If you need one of these, Descript may be the better tool.
- Timeline comments
- The review link takes an approval or one note per job, not threads on the timeline.
- Team seats
- One account, one operator. No shared workspace, roles or per-seat billing.
- A mobile app
- Nothing to install: the free check and Studio run in a phone browser. On a phone Studio takes files up to 200 MB and exports slower than on a computer.
- Generative work
- No AI voice, avatars, dubbing or generated footage. B-roll and music are your own files.
- A whole-project editor
- Studio edits one clip per job. Joining shots with transitions stays in your editor.
- Server rendering
- Exports encode in your browser: one to four minutes for a 30-second 1080p cut on a laptop.
