# Frequently asked questions

## Do I need separate Creator access?

No. Everyone with Backstage access can begin creating immediately. The first time you create, SeeGov asks you to complete a creator profile and acknowledge the Creator Guidelines, then returns you to your draft.

## Does selecting a moment publish anything?

No. It only adds the moment to your draft highlights.

## Can I create without publishing?

Yes. For a Highlight Reel, clear **Auto-publish when ready** before generation. For a Social Video, clear **Post to Reels when ready**. You can then generate, review, and download without automatic distribution.

## What is the difference between a Highlight Reel and a Social Video?

A Highlight Reel can combine several moments into a fuller report with introductions and other context. A Social Video is a shorter format designed for vertical or full-width viewing on social platforms.

## Does the review playback speed change my generated video?

No. The speed near the meeting player affects review only. Social Video output speed is a separate choice in Finalize.

## Can I download a transcript?

Yes. Use the download icon above the transcript and choose the full meeting or the moments currently in your reel.

## When should I correct a speaker?

Correct a speaker when a clear identity will improve your downloaded transcript or generated video text. If one speaker ID covers several people or you are unsure who is speaking, **Unknown Speaker** is safer.

## Are SeeGov transcripts official?

No. They are generated working transcripts. Verify quotations in the recording and use the government's records for official actions or minutes.

## Can I add my own voice or video?

Yes. During Refine, record an audio or video intro, upload a file, or scan the QR code to upload from another device.

## Can I edit the generated suggestions?

Yes—and you should. Headlines, descriptions, intros, subtitles, and social copy are drafts for your review.

## Where should I send a question or idea?

Email Alex at <alex@seegov.org>. SeeGov is small enough that your note reaches the person building it.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.seegov.org/guidance/faq.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
