The friction
Transcript matches are not enough for editorial trust
Quote search is only useful when every result opens at the exact source moment for review.
01
A transcript line can miss tone, pauses, interruptions, and visual context.
02
AI summaries can suggest useful quotes without proving the surrounding moment works.
03
Editors still need to hear and see the source before a quote becomes a select.
How Focus helps
