The deciding question

Choose the format your learner needs

Some procedures are easiest to follow as screenshots with short instructions. Others need movement, timing or narration to make the action clear. Choose a real task and ask someone unfamiliar with it to complete it using each output. Scribe deserves consideration for process capture and documentation. Record Wow is more relevant when the learner needs a watchable demonstration and written steps together. Do not assume that adding video improves every simple procedure.

Our workflow recommendation. Use the official sources above to confirm the product features behind your decision.

Choose for the work
you actually do.

The right choice depends on the output, the people using it and what happens when it needs an update.

Record Wow

You need a video
and a useful handoff.

Record Wow suits recurring walkthroughs, customer explanations and training material. Keep the recording, written instructions and review process in a free workspace, with downloadable files for later use.

Scribe

You need its specialist workflow.

Choose Scribe when process documentation, workflow analysis, and distributing operational context are the core job.

Choose a specialist if interactive branching or in-app walkthroughs are essential. Record Wow wins for teams that need a downloadable video and an editable written guide from the same project.

Check Scribe directly

Try a real task

Compare with
a product onboarding guide.

Choose a workflow with three steps. Decide whether the audience must click through a simulation, watch a video or follow written instructions. Those are different deliverables.

Make one revision before deciding

Change a real detail in the source material. Time the work needed to correct the explanation, inspect the final output and share the revision. This reveals more about everyday use than the first polished demo.

Bring your work into Record Wow.

  1. Keep an export and the original

    Check that your Scribe plan and permissions allow export. Save a supported video or image file and keep your original project as a backup. A hosted link alone is not a portable editing project.

  2. Build a small, complete example

    Import the media, arrange the explanation and add written steps. Review captions and screenshots against the source so the guide says what the recording actually shows.

  3. Test the handoff with another person

    Ask a teammate to follow the instructions and review the result. Check access from the recipient’s account before moving more material or replacing an existing workflow.
