Descript's paid plans: Hobbyist USD 24 per seat a month (10 media hours and 400 AI credits a month) and Business USD 65 per seat a month (40 media hours and 1,500 AI credits a month). Descript is an editor for recordings you make yourself, and Hobbyist includes 10 media hours a month.
Siteglade starts with a Free plan with 1,500 credits a month and 3 projects; paid plans cost Pro USD 14.99, Plus USD 34.99, Max USD 69.99 a month before tax. Credits are counted differently by every product, so the fair test is one of your own tasks in both.
What Descript does well
Underlord, its AI co-editor, works on your own recordings. Hobbyist exports 1080p without a watermark. Creator adds 4K export and 800 AI credits a month.
What Siteglade adds
Next to videos, Siteglade delivers web apps, mobile apps, desktop apps, browser games and presentations.
Web apps get sign-in, a database, file storage and email through Siteglade Cloud, included from the Pro plan.
Which one to choose
Choose Descript for editing your own recordings, podcasts and talking-head videos. Siteglade is the wrong choice for presenter videos with an AI avatar or a digital twin of yourself, and for cutting long recordings into many clips automatically.
Choose Siteglade when the same project also needs browser games, presentations and documents, when the result should be published or handed over as a file, or when the work should be processed in the EU.
