The frictionHow Focus helpsHow it worksFAQ

The friction

Video is harder than image reference management.

Keep design assets organized in Eagle, then make local video footage searchable by scene, speech, people, and meaning.

01

A video file can contain many useful moments that a filename cannot describe.

02

Manual tags are expensive when every clip has speech, scenes, and people.

03

A basic preview is not enough when editors need timestamps and exports.

How Focus helps

Add a video-first search layer.

Focus indexes local video files so users can search what happens inside footage and move useful results into editing workflows.

01

Search inside footage

Find scenes and moments by plain-language description.

02

Search spoken words

Use transcripts to find exact lines and context.

03

Reduce manual tags

Find useful B-roll before rebuilding the whole library.
