As a community manager and developer advocate, I've always struggled with creating step-by-step documentation, processes, screenshots, annotations, formatting – it's time-consuming and tedious.

That's when I discovered Scribe, and it completely transformed how I approach documentation.

What is Scribe?

Scribe is an automated documentation tool that captures your screen activities and instantly converts them into professional step-by-step guides. It helps you:

  • Create guides automatically – Just perform your workflow, and Scribe generates the documentation

  • Capture perfect screenshots – Every click and action is automatically documented with clean, annotated images

  • Share instantly – Export as PDF, HTML, or shareable links in seconds

  • Save hours of work – No more manual screenshot editing or guide formatting

It's like having a documentation assistant that watches what you do and creates beautiful guides automatically.

Getting Started: Simple 3-Step Process
