Rationale

Descript offers a comprehensive video editing platform that includes screen and camera recording, instant sharing, and various editing capabilities. While the provided URL is for 'Overdub' (an AI audio repair feature), the website content extensively covers Descript's broader offerings, which align very closely with Loom's core functionalities and additional features. Descript explicitly mentions screen recording, webcam recording, instant sharing via links, text-based video editing (which includes trimming and cutting), and collaboration features like comments and shared folders (team library). It also highlights auto-generated transcripts, mobile app support, custom branding, and enterprise-grade security features.
