Hey all, does anyone use Descript for gathering customer testimonial videos?
Or do you prefer another tool for doing this, on a small scale for now.

I use Descript for clipping longer videos into smaller clips for social. I know that there's a way to record a video directly within the system, but I don't think there's a way you can give customers guest access to the system to be able to do that.
I believe there is a way to create a "Room" and then invite people to that room, but it wouldn't be "self-serve" or "async".
I've seen other tools that have done these testimonial videos, Slapfive and Deeto are two I can think of.

I played with a cool tool awhile back called Lucihub, it is a little pricey, but I got to know the founder well, if you take a demo, ask for the Gutierrez / Villareal family discount 🤪

I met with @Karen Thomas today and she mentioned
- Not trying to steal her thunder, but definitely worth speaking to her about as she had a demo from them for how to get customer video at scale.
Love it @Rachel Bonistalli - all good, happy to talk about the platform, although I never got the chance to implement at my last gig - I hope to do so at my next

Thanks all! I was really hoping I could make a work around happy with asynchronous videos in descript. Would be great if I didn’t have to add another software to the tech stack 😅

Thanks for the shoutout @Karen Thomas & @Rachel Bonistalli Here's the link to get a free plan if you're curious:
