Why it matters
Named segments turn a video into addressable parts, which is what makes re-running a format with a new subject practical.
Where it shows up in Hypit

FAQ
Is segment specific to Hypit?
The idea is general to video workflows; the way it is expressed here follows how Hypit models projects, so the term maps to something you can actually edit.
Where can I see it in practice?
The quickstart walks through a full clone, and the clone-format pages show the same concept used in a real structure.
Do I need the paid API for this?
No. The agent tooling is free and open source; the managed API is optional.
