What Q&A Focus does
Interview-style content works brilliantly on short-form platforms. Each question is a built-in hook, and each answer is a payoff. The raw recording, though, is full of setup, small talk and long pauses.
Q&A Focus transcribes the conversation, finds each question and its answer, and drops everything around them.
Great for
- Street interviews: a question, a funny answer, then the next person.
- "You asked, I answered" videos: respond to comments in a tight edit.
- Expert interviews and podcasts: pull out the most useful exchange.
Tips
- Make sure the question is audible. Use a mic on the interviewer if you can.
- Keep each answer focused. Shorter answers make better clips.
- Use the Short cut for the single best Q&A and the Full cut for a mini-episode.

Frequently asked questions
Can cutzio edit podcast clips?
Yes, if the footage is on your iPhone. Select up to 15 minutes of clips, choose Q&A Focus, and cutzio keeps the question-and-answer moments. For cutting hours-long desktop podcasts into dozens of clips, a desktop tool such as Opus Clip is a better fit.
Does Q&A Focus keep the question if it is off camera?
Yes, as long as the question is audible. cutzio works from the transcript, so a clearly spoken question is kept with its answer.
