Rationale
Descript offers a comprehensive video editing suite with a strong emphasis on AI-powered features. It explicitly mentions automatic subtitle generation, multi-source recording (screen, camera, voice), and instant sharing/export. While it doesn't explicitly state 'automatic cursor tracking and dynamic zoom,' it does mention 'zooms' and 'pans' as tools to direct attention, which implies a similar functionality. It also provides customizable layouts, basic editing tools, transitions, audio enhancements (Studio Sound, noise reduction), branding options, and integrations for publishing. The multi-language subtitle support and dubbing are also clearly stated.
