The historical announcement names an “Update to Overdub 3.0” action. Do not apply this workflow to today’s ElevenLabs-backed voice clones.

Access & pricing

Prices belong to an endpoint and billing tier. A provider listing does not guarantee access for every account or region.

API model ID
Not collected

No standalone model API ID is published for this editing feature.

Access
Historical editor upgrade action “Update to Overdub 3.0”; not a public API model ID.
Regions
Managed service; exact model-processing region not verified

Endpoint pricing has not been collected. Check the provider for applicable rates.

Data & enterprise terms

Current privacy documentation is linked for context; original release policy and retained legacy deployments remain unverified.

Caching

Caching can reuse earlier input processing. Availability, lifetime and billing depend on the endpoint. A cache hit still generates a new response.

01 / INITIAL INPUTProcess & retain

The system processes eligible input and retains reusable state.

02 / LATER REQUESTCheck available state

Reuse depends on matching input, session state and the cache policy.

03 / CACHE HITReuse & generate

Reusing state can reduce repeated work. Any charges follow the billing rules below.

What the measurements say

No benchmark observations have been added for this model. We do not turn a vendor description into a performance score.

Latency and throughput depend on the host, request size, reasoning settings and load. There is no measured speed or global usage figure in this record.

The record behind the model

Why it is included

Descript identifies its media-editing models as proprietary and reserves service/model rights. The record is a documented proprietary model generation or explicitly labeled managed enhancement family; project-page code is not released model weights. Separately downloadable DAC and Mouse research weights are excluded.
