What the Descript MCP Server unlocks

Connect Descript to your AI agent and manage your video and podcast production pipeline conversationally.

What you can do

Project Management — List, search, and retrieve project details including compositions, transcripts, and media files.
Transcript Access — Pull full transcriptions from any Descript project for repurposing into blog posts, social content, or subtitles.
Media Exports — Retrieve exported audio and video files, download links, and export statuses.
Drive Organization — Navigate your Descript drives and projects to find specific recordings or compositions.

How it works

1. Subscribe to the Descript integration on the marketplace.
2. Generate an API token from your Descript account (Settings → API tokens → Create token).
3. Ask your AI agent to list projects, pull transcripts, or check export statuses.

Who is this for?

Content Creators — Repurpose video transcripts into blog posts, newsletters, and social media content without manual copying.
Podcast Producers — Pull episode transcripts and metadata for show notes generation and SEO optimization.
Marketing Teams — Access video project data and transcripts to fuel multi-channel content strategies from a single interface.

Frequently asked questions about the Descript MCP Server

How do I get my Descript API token?

Log in to your Descript account at descript.com. Navigate to Settings (click your profile icon). In the left sidebar, select API tokens. Click the Create token button, give it a descriptive name, and select the specific Drive you want it associated with. Copy the token immediately — it will not be shown again after you close the window. Paste it into the configuration field below.

Can I convert a podcast transcript into a blog post automatically?

Yes. Ask your AI agent to pull the full transcript from a Descript project, then instruct it to reformat the content into a structured blog post. It retrieves speaker labels, timestamps, and the complete text — perfect for creating show notes, summaries, or full articles from your recordings.

What if I work across multiple Descript drives?

Each API token is tied to a specific Drive. If you work across multiple drives (e.g., separate drives for different shows or clients), generate a separate token for each drive and configure multiple integrations. Your AI agent can then query projects from any of your drives.

Is this useful for agencies producing video content for clients?

Absolutely. Agencies can use the AI agent to pull transcripts across client projects, track export statuses, and retrieve download links — all from a single conversational interface. No need to log in and out of different client workspaces or manually download files from the Descript dashboard.
