Careful
Descript says it may use your projects to improve the service unless you turn off Share Data with Descript. For AI Speakers, it records your voice to build a voice model and may keep other training data after removing the account link. Staff may listen to samples for quality. That is acceptable only after Share Data is off and you understand the voice-model exception. It is not a default no-training tool.
