Automated Detection Proposes. A Person Disposes.

The studio presents each detected object as a track across the timeline, not as a series of isolated frames. A correction applies to the object's whole appearance rather than frame by frame. Merging joins tracks the detector treated as separate objects; splitting does the reverse.

An object you draw yourself is tracked forward the same way, so redacting a face that moves through a scene is one action rather than one per frame. On MP4 sources that tracking runs in the browser, so the object is followed immediately instead of waiting for a server job to return.

Redactions are organised into named layers, managed independently. Each carries a name, a visibility toggle, a lock, role-based permission, and its own export.

That is what makes tiered disclosure workable on a single asset. A record released to a requester, to counsel and to a court removes different things. Holding those as three layers on one asset avoids maintaining three separately redacted copies that then drift apart.

Because visibility is per layer, a reviewer sees what one release removes without disturbing another. Because permission is per layer, an analyst can work on one set while another stays locked to them. Operations apply in batch across a layer rather than region by region, and layer history is tracked.
