Where the time actually goes
The individual browser steps feel small. The cost appears when they repeat twenty or fifty times across a project. Every window switch also asks the editor to rebuild context around the current cut.
MediaFlow focuses on that repeated middle of the workflow. It does not replace research, judgement or editing.
When the browser is still the right tool
Use a browser for licensing research, long-form source verification, account-only media or tasks that need a full website. Use MediaFlow for the repeated discovery and import loop where speed and continuity matter.
