The frictionHow Focus helpsHow it worksFAQ

The friction

Export Fragmentation Slows Delivery

Prepare rough cuts, conform timelines, and subtitle handoff files from the same local video intelligence workflow.

01

Teams juggle different tools for timeline exchange and subtitles.

02

Manual copy/paste between tools creates metadata mistakes.

03

Cloud products add recurring costs on top of post-production software.

How Focus helps

Focus Handles Timeline and Subtitle Exports Together

Generate and refine local selects once, then export FCPXML, EDL v3, and SRT from the same sequence context.

01

FCPXML timeline export

Send structured timelines to Final Cut Pro and compatible tools.

02

EDL v3 handoff

Create conform-ready edit decision lists for Resolve and finishing.

03

SRT subtitles

Export searchable transcripts as subtitle files with timing.

Unified Local Export vs Multi-Tool Cloud Stack

Focus unified exports

Focus
  • One sequence source for all outputs.
  • No internet dependency during handoff.
  • One-time license.

Cloud workflow stacks

  • Multiple subscriptions to maintain.
  • Risk of format drift between tools.
  • Uploads required for each platform.

How it works

How the Multi-Export Workflow Runs

A shorter path from footage to the next useful action.

01

Index and search locally

Build your selects from dialogue, visuals, and scene context.

02

Assemble one draft sequence

Refine timeline blocks once instead of rebuilding per format.

03

Export by delivery target

Output FCPXML, EDL, and SRT files for edit, conform, and subtitles.

Yes. Indexing, search, and all export formats are local-first.
