Rationale
Lightworks is a professional video editing software that offers a wide range of editing capabilities, including basic editing tools, scene transitions, audio enhancements, and branding options. It also supports instant export and cloud storage/platform integrations. However, it does not explicitly mention automatic cursor tracking, dynamic zoom, or automatic subtitle generation, which are key 'must-have' features for FocuSee. While it has advanced VFX capabilities that might include some form of zoom, it's not specifically 'dynamic zoom' tied to cursor tracking. Similarly, while it handles audio, automatic subtitle generation is not listed. It is a general video editor, not specifically a screen recording and editing tool with automated features like FocuSee.
