Comparison
SceneRecap vs Scribe
Scribe turns a click-through into a guide as you go. SceneRecap records the session and has the AI write the guide afterwards — with the video behind every step, and three other outputs from the same recording.
| Scribe | SceneRecap | |
|---|---|---|
| Built for | Click-through guides captured as you go | Recording a session and explaining it — guides, bug reports, explanations, recaps |
| Capture | Screenshots at each click | Full video + click/navigation/console log; the AI picks the frame per step |
| Output | Guide with screenshots and auto text | Guide with screenshots, written steps and a timestamp per step back to the video |
| Messy / exploratory sessions | Best for deliberate walkthroughs | Designed for it — debugging sessions, half-finished workflows, silent recordings |
| Other outputs from the same recording | — | Bug Report, Explain, Recap; AI voiceover video |
| Exports | PDF, HTML, Markdown, embeds | PDF, DOCX, Markdown, HTML, GIF highlight, Notion page |
| Privacy at capture | Screenshot redaction tools | Passwords/payment fields masked at capture, keystrokes never logged, path-only URLs, review before upload, EU hosting |
| Free plan | Yes | Yes — 25 recordings, 10 min; Tutorial mode on Pro |

When Scribe is the better pick
Short deliberate walkthroughs you want as a guide the moment you stop clicking, inside a large existing library of Scribes.
When SceneRecap is
Longer or exploratory sessions, silent recordings, guides that should link back to the video, and teams who also need bug reports and recaps from the same recordings. Try it free.
Frequently asked
Is SceneRecap a Scribe alternative?
For creating step-by-step guides from what you do in the browser, yes. SceneRecap records the whole session as video, so each step in the guide links back to the moment — and the same recording can become a bug report or recap.
Does SceneRecap take screenshots per step?
Yes. The AI segments the recording into steps and picks a clean frame for each; you can swap frames and edit text, then export to PDF, DOCX, Markdown, HTML or Notion.
Which should I pick?
If you mostly produce deliberate click-through how-tos and want them instantly, Scribe is excellent. If your recordings are longer, messier, silent, or you want one recording to serve as guide and bug report and recap, pick SceneRecap.
