Clean Filler Words From Recordings in One Pass (Claude Cowork Self-Install Kit)

Get a clean, tight cut of every recording without scrubbing the waveform yourself.

You record a solid episode and then spend longer hunting down every um and uh than you did recording it. And you still miss half of them.

That backlog is a tooling gap, not a stamina problem. Manual scrubbing is the wrong job for a person.

What this kit does

This kit sets up a workflow around Descript's filler-word removal so post-production stops eating your afternoon. Your agent walks you through uploading a recording, running the pass that flags every um, uh, and dead-air gap, previewing the cuts, and exporting a clean file. A 30-minute raw recording becomes a tight cut in a single pass instead of a 45-minute manual hunt.

What you can expect

Expect to recover 30 to 90 minutes of manual scrubbing on every episode. A filler-word pass that used to take 45 minutes on a 30-minute recording drops to a few minutes. It stays consistent across every episode without wearing you down.

Who it's for

Built for content creators, coaches and consultants, and solopreneurs who record audio or video and dread the edit. This is a self-install kit you run yourself with your own AI agent, built for Claude Cowork first.

What's included

Skip building from scratch. No coding. You get the complete kit your own AI agent reads, sets up, and runs for you, step by step:

• A Start Here guide, so you know exactly what to open first
• The agent install instructions, the part that lets your own AI agent stand the workflow up for you
• A guided setup that interviews you about your business, so the workflow fits how you actually work
• Workflow Briefing: the plan, the inputs, and what done looks like
• Task List your agent follows to build it
• MCP Connection Guide for the tools involved
• Tool Setup notes for accounts, keys, and permissions
• Prompt Library, including the ready-to-run prompt for this workflow
• Troubleshooting and maintenance guide for the common snags
• A Next Steps and Roadmap, so you know what to automate next once this one is running
• A Run Guide you keep, so you can run it any time with no setup again

This is a small kit that earns its keep on repetition. You set it up once and rerun the same clean-up pass on every episode, so the setup pays off across a whole season.

What you'll need (not included)

The kit is the workflow, the prompts, and the setup guide. To run it you bring your own Claude with Cowork account and a free Descript account, where the filler-word pass actually happens. The Descript free tier is enough to get started, and a watermark-free export is available on a paid plan.

You'll also need your Claude account on Cowork's Pro plan or higher, so your agent can connect your tools and use the most capable model while it installs the workflow.

Not on Claude? The kit is plain files that describe what to achieve rather than which buttons to press, so a capable AI agent on another platform, like ChatGPT Work, can follow the same steps. If anything doesn't map to your setup, email support and we'll get you working.

How to install this kit

Open Claude Cowork and connect any tools the workflow uses at claude.com/connectors, then point your agent at the agent install instructions. It stands the workflow up and walks you through your Descript setup as it goes.
