About

Scribe is a workflow AI platform founded in 2019 by Jennifer Smith and Aaron Podolny. Its flagship Scribe Capture records a user's on-screen actions via a browser extension or desktop app and auto-generates step-by-step guides with screenshots and AI-written titles and descriptions, which teams use for onboarding, SOPs and knowledge sharing.

The company reports over 5 million users across 78,000+ paying organizations, adoption by 94% of the Fortune 500, and more than 10 million documented workflows; named customers include T-Mobile, LinkedIn, HubSpot and Northern Trust. In November 2025 it raised a $75M Series C led by StepStone Group at a $1.3B valuation, bringing total funding to $130M, and launched Scribe Optimize, an AI platform that maps enterprise workflows to find automation opportunities. A free Basic plan covers browser-only capture with unlimited guides; paid plans start around $25 per seat per month.
