Scribe is a browser extension that auto-captures step-by-step guides as you work.
Scribe pioneered the auto-capture SOP space. The extension watches you work and generates a click-by-click guide. For one-off documentation it's excellent. For DTC operations teams who need SOPs that stay accurate as the team and tools change, the gaps show up around month three.
Scribe records your browser activity and generates a step-by-step guide with screenshots, redacted sensitive data, and editable text. The pitch: turn any process into a SOP in 30 seconds without the user thinking about it.
No tool is right for everyone. Here's where Scribe genuinely beats ReccordSOP.

You document mostly browser-based processes, you need redaction for compliance reasons, you're a single team without department complexity, and you don't care about drift detection.
You run a DTC brand on Shopify, you have multiple departments (CX, Ops, Marketing), procedures change as your team or tools change, you need to know when actual practice diverges from documentation.
3 SOPs per month on the free plan. No credit card required. See if drift detection and DTC templates fit your workflow.
