Scribe
Workflow AI platform that captures how work is done and feeds that context to people and AI agents.
What the agent does
Scribe Capture records workflows in the browser and desktop and turns them into step-by-step guides; Scribe Optimize analyzes that workflow data to find what to improve or automate; Scribe Agents and an MCP server let AI agents pull step-by-step instructions and workflow context directly.
Business model
Freemium SaaS (600,000+ organizations on Scribe; paid team and enterprise plans) moving upmarket with Optimize and agent access; VC-backed ($75M Series C led by StepStone, Nov 2025). Most revenue history comes from the documentation product, with the agent products newer
Lessons for builders
- Own the context layer: Scribe repositioned years of workflow recordings as the data agents need to do real work, then shipped an MCP server so agents can use it.
- Freemium distribution compounds: hundreds of thousands of free organizations gave Scribe the footprint to sell enterprise and agent products on top.
- Capital efficiency still wins rounds: the company says it hadn't spent its Series B when it raised the Series C.
Founded — · Team ~120 employees at the Series C (company, Nov 2025); HQ San Francisco; CEO and co-founder Jennifer Smith
