Our take

Knowledge workers spend, by some reports, around one fifth of their time simply working out how to do their job. Where historically this might have demanded lengthy, labor-intensive user guides and training manuals, Scribe has brought to market an efficient new alternative, where all users need to do is record their screen whilst carrying out a task.

From there, the company creates text descriptions and interactive screenshots for each step, which can be shared with a simple link. Scribe has accrued an impressive customer base since it launched in beta back in 2020, with over 1,000 teams including Adobe, Facebook, Tesla, and EA using its product. Demand looks likely to continue, with hybrid workforces still widespread post-pandemic.

Founder Jennifer Smith is versed in the inefficiencies of knowledge-sharing within companies from a stint at Mckinsey, and her co-founder Aaron Podolny was previously CTO at automated customer service and sales tools company, Onward. With strong funding secured, Scribe’s impressive success to date looks only set to continue as it scales its team and invests in R&D to propel the development of its platform.
