Summer is wrapping up, and we hope yours was filled with a well-deserved vacation. Maybe this time felt different and you could truly unplug — perhaps for the first time ever — because you’d documented your workflows with Scribe.
Switching off is easier when your team can keep work moving while you’re away. That is why we spent the summer building five new features that make capturing knowledge even more effortless and reliable, so you can step away with confidence.
The result? Easier workflow capture, more confident teams, more relaxing time away.
At a glance: What’s new
- Capture desktop workflows: Fully redesigned Windows and Mac apps mean Scribe works the same in every environment. Pro & Enterprise plans.
- Delete accidental steps: Instantly remove mistakes while capturing, with no extra cleanup later.
- Transcribe your voice: Simply speak as you create your Scribe, and watch your words transform into step‑by‑step written instructions. Pro & Enterprise plans.
- Clearer steps: Automatically generated step text that is sharper, more descriptive, and easier for others to follow.
- Recover unsaved Scribes: Restore guides automatically if your browser crashes or your internet drops.
To capture a Scribe and try these new features, just open the Scribe browser extension or desktop app, and click "Start capture." You can also visit your Scribe workspace and click "Create" in the top left corner.
All-new Windows and Mac apps: Document any workflow, wherever it happens

Not every workflow lives in your browser. That is why we rebuilt our Windows and Mac apps from the ground up over the summer, enabling Pro and Enterprise users to capture workflows wherever they happen.
We’re most excited that desktop app users can now take advantage of:
- Select window targeting: Capture only the application you need.
- On-screen controls: Pause or delete mid-capture for more control.
- Voice transcription: Add richer context while you capture.
With a refreshed design, faster performance, and the same secure infrastructure you expect, documenting workflows across all your apps is now just as easy and reliable as capturing in the browser. That means you can go out of office knowing even the most complex processes are documented and ready for your team.
Pro and Enterprise customers can download the Mac and Windows desktop apps. On a Basic plan? Consider upgrading for desktop to ensure your workflows are captured no matter where they happen.
Delete accidental steps: More accurate guides, more reliable handoff

One of the best parts about using Scribe to document your workflows is that you don’t have to plan or rehearse them in advance; you can capture your work while you’re doing your work. Now, stray clicks or irrelevant steps can be deleted instantly as you go, so there’s really no need to plan before you begin.
By quickly deleting accidental steps as you capture, your guide will come out polished and accurate, without extra cleanup.

Voice transcription: The easiest way to capture context

When you are on vacation, a map alone is not enough. The best trips come from insider tips, helpful stories, and a guide who can point out what really matters. Documentation works the same way. Context such as explanations, best practices, and warnings about pitfalls transforms basic steps into something your team can follow with confidence.
Voice transcription makes it easy to add that context as you capture. Instead of typing, you can speak naturally and let your keyboard take a vacation. Explain why a step matters, call out shortcuts, or flag common mistakes, all while staying in the flow of your work. The result is a guide that feels like a trusted travel itinerary, complete with both the “how” and the “why.”
Pro and Enterprise creators can get started by following this guide. On a Basic plan? Consider upgrading to enable voice transcription.
Smarter step instructions: Guides that are easy to follow

The best trips are the ones with clear directions. That’s why our team spent the summer working behind the scenes to make capturing steps a lot smarter. Scribe’s enhanced detection logic now goes beyond what is visible, looking at parent HTML elements and attributes to find meaningful labels. Even if a button lacks a label, your resulting guide still shows the right instruction.
The result is documentation that feels like a well-marked map. It is instantly accurate, easy to follow, and reduces errors, so no one takes a wrong turn. Whether someone is brand new or deeply experienced, each guide is accurate and every process stays on track.
Recover unsaved Scribes: Never lose your work

Few things are more frustrating than losing progress. Now, even if your browser crashes or your internet connection drops, your Scribes are now safe.
Your progress is stored locally and ready to restore, like your favorite beach chair waiting for you when you return from the water. The next time you open your Scribe extension, you will see a notification that your unsaved guide can be recovered. With one click, you’re back where you left off.
Recoverable Scribes protect your work so your effort is never wasted, and your team always has the documentation they need. See how it works here.
A summer of progress, a Workflow AI platform for the future
Every feature we released this summer shares a single purpose: to remove friction from getting work done right. From redesigned desktop apps to instant step deletion, from richer voice context to smarter instructions and recoverable guides, each update makes capturing workflows and processes faster, clearer, and more reliable.
Together, these improvements are more than incremental. They are the building blocks of the Workflow AI platform: a foundation that is fast to adopt, flexible across tools, and familiar for every user. With Scribe, your workflows are captured once, made instantly accurate, and shared everywhere your team works.
The result is simple: every workflow becomes a trusted workflow. So go ahead, book your next trip. Work will continue to get done right while you’re out of office.
