A: Hi there!

1️⃣ EDITING WITH A TIMELINE:
- Our goal with OneTake is to streamline the video editing process using AI, so we're actually avoiding a traditional manual timeline editing feature.
- The focus is on easy, intuitive edits with AI-driven enhancements, so you only deal with editing where needed - for a faster process.
- That said, we are planning to improve our manual editing capabilities to give you more control over the automatic edits after they're made by the AI, while keeping the process user-friendly.

2️⃣ TURNING LONG-FORM INTO SHORT-FORM VIDEO:
- The feature to automatically generate short-form videos from a longer input is part of our roadmap! At the moment, however, your best bet is to manually trim and edit the longer video into shorter segments using the transcription in the “Advanced Editor” where you can cut or summarize sections based on length.

For the long-form videos currently, just upload them to OneTake, let it edit, and then use the transcription view to manually trim.

Join us on one of our live calls! (The next one is later this month! 😎 There is a live demo that all Sumolings are welcome to attend. The live links and the replay are available here: https://yes.onetake.ai/demo-and-replays). Please give us a try and join the call!

I hope this helps clarify where we’re at and where we’re going. If you’ve got anything else you’re curious about, let me know!
