I fully support and need this. I need to be able to automate my workflow including importing a video, removing gaps and filler words, transcribing, and exporting. Currently the only thing that can be automated is transcribing through Zapier.

Descript captioning is the best! I use it for YouTube shorts. It would be great to automate this with an API. For now I have to do each one manually.

Being able to use the API would be immense. It would be such a big help to us. You could package it as so many things. You guys are leaving A LOT of money on the table.

This is a must have. Please prioritize this 🙏

Please build an API. I would love to utilize the voices I have in Descript in projects outside of the platform.

I believe descript has a lot more potential and automation possibilities to make it even more versatile and irreplaceable tool. By allowing independent developers to use API you might get insights on how to make Descript more efficient.

1000% This would be a game changer and a lot of visibility to Descript!

THIS WOULD BE A GAME CHANGER FOR ME!

I’d like to build an automated workflow that pulls in an audio file from a specific folder location, transcribes it or import the he transcript from a specific folder location, and then follow a customized cleaning process before I ever have to open the software to manually review it and make additional edits (automated edits would be an order of operations that I always want Descript to follow such as #1 remove filler words, #2 search for words/phrases from my custom list and ignore them if found, #3 add a marker when certain criteria is met, #4 export certain file types to a specific folder location when criteria is met).

PLEASE ADD THIS FEATURE ASAP!!

Having an API would help us immensely. We have a massive backlog of previous interviews and Q&A sessions. Right now, it's the manual task of downloading each one again and transcribing it. If we could build a way for Descript to work in the background transcribing all of our content, this would be huge!
