# Descript

> Extracted from [https://www.descript.com/](https://www.descript.com/) on 2026-11-12 by Emblematic. Every value below was read from the rendered DOM (computed styles, `document.fonts`, and the fonts Chrome actually used to paint text), not estimated from pixels. When the YAML front matter and this prose disagree, the YAML wins. Copy values from this file exactly; don't transcribe them from memory. Don't copy logos, imagery, illustrations or marketing copy.

## Overview

Descript uses a dark canvas (#390A1A) with a palette led by #772A4D. Type is set in **Booton**, **Gamuth Display** (display), with 16px body text. Layout: 1112px container, none-detected navigation, 11 sections. Built with next.js, tailwind, sanity, segment, google-tag-manager, cloudflare.

## Colors

Area-weighted from painted backgrounds, text and borders on the 1440px light capture. Roles are inferred from usage (largest background, most text, interactive fills). Every hex is an exact computed value; a role marked *unverified* is a best guess that has not passed review, so its canonical token (e.g. `primary`) is left out of the front matter.

| Token | Hex | OKLCH | Role | Share of paint | CSS variable |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `background` | `#390A1A` | 0.236 0.075 4.3 | bg | 25.9% | `--Maroon-900` |

Sparse chromatic highlights (not accents): `#2A2A96` (`--Lilac-750`), `#5B142E` (`--Maroon-800`), `#651A39` (`--Maroon-750`).

Contrast: text on background 16.18:1, muted text 10.34:1, accent 1.8:1.

The site does not change under `prefers-color-scheme: dark`.

## Typography

| Family | Role | Weights | Share of text | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| **Booton** (CSS: `booton`) | body | 400, 600 | 53.5% | webfont |
| **Gamuth Display** (CSS: `gamuthDisplay`) | display | 400, 600, 700 | 41.7% | webfont |
| **Brett** (CSS: `brett`) | other | 400 | 3.3% | webfont |
| **Arial** | other | 400 | 1.5% | system (stack `Arial, sans-serif`, resolved on macos) |

Scale (px): 14, 16, 18, 24, 28, 40, 56, 72, 88. Effective ratio ≈ 1.276 (close to a major third). Body 16px at line-height 1.4; display 88px with tracking 0em. Headings are sentence case. On a 390px viewport the body is 18px and display 18px.

## Layout

Spacing follows a 8px base unit; the most used steps are 4, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 20, 24, 28, 30, 32, 40, 48, 56px. Sections open with about 96px of space before their first line of text. Content sits in a 1112px container on a 3-column grid. Text density 0.12 (text area / page area).

Section order (desktop). Kinds below the review threshold are shown as *section*:

1. **section** (92px, bg #FFF7FA)
2. **hero** — “AI Video Editor” (1339px, bg #390A1A)
3. **section** (384px, bg #390A1A)
4. **section** — “The whole workflow, right here” (942px, bg #190308)
5. **section** — “AI tools that change what’s possible” (777px, bg #180101)
6. **section** — “All your video starts (and finishes) here” (888px, bg #190308)
7. **section** — “Enterprise-grade security, brand controls, and collaboration” (1124px, bg #FFF7FA)
8. **section** — “Don’t just take our word for it” (1023px, bg #FFF7FA)
9. **faq** — “Is it secure enough for my team or company?” (866px, bg #FFF7FA)
10. **section** — “From raw footage to finished video, faster” (1009px, bg #390A1A)
11. **footer** (1042px, bg #110A0D)

## Elevation & Depth

Style: subtle. Most used shadows:

- `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.16) 0px 3px 3px 0px`
- `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.16) 0px 2px 4px 0px`

## Shapes

Dominant corner radius 4px; radii in use: 4px, 5px, 8px, 12px, 16px, pill. Borders: hairline (1px).

## Components

- **button-primary**: backgroundColor `#772A4D`, textColor `#FFFFFF`, rounded `12px`, padding `16px 24px`, height `54.1px`, fontFamily `Booton`, fontSize `16px`, fontWeight `600`, shadow `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.16) 0px 2px 4px 0px` (e.g. “Sign up”)
- **button-secondary**: backgroundColor `#F73B3B`, textColor `#FFF7FD`, rounded `12px`, padding `16px 32px`, height `56px`, fontFamily `Booton`, fontSize `16px`, fontWeight `600` (e.g. “Get started for free”)
- **card**: rounded `4px`, padding `24px`, backgroundColor `#F1EAED`

## Do's and Don'ts

- Do reserve `#772A4D` for primary actions and highlights; it covers only 0.08% of the painted page.
- Do set body copy in Booton at 16px / 1.4.
- Do use Gamuth Display only for display sizes, not for body text.
- Don't introduce font weights beyond 400, 600, 700.
- Do keep corners at 4px for most controls, and use the larger radii only for cards and media.
- Do snap spacing to multiples of 8px.
- Don't copy this site's logos, illustrations, photography or copy; use the system, not the brand assets.
