Voice transcription makes it effortless to capture clear, step-by-step Scribes with all the context your team needs — without typing a word. Just speak as you walk through your workflow, and your instructions are automatically transcribed and applied to the corresponding steps in your Scribe.
To use voice transcription follow these three simple steps:
- Open Scribe’s browser extension or desktop app.
- Toggle “Voice transcription” on.
- Click “Start capture” and speak as you go through your workflow.
Your words will be automatically applied to the right steps, giving you a fully documented guide with all the context included.

FAQs
What languages are supported?
English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, and Portuguese are available in our extension for Pro users, and in both the extension and desktop app for Enterprise users.
Does this work automatically or do I need to select my language?
Automatic — just speak. Scribe detects your language. No settings changes needed.
When I use voice transcription, will Scribe still write out steps based on my actions?
Yes. Scribe will capture both what you say and what you do. The purpose of speaking is to add additional context easily without having to type it out later.
Do I need to speak out loud any time I capture a Scribe?
Absolutely not. If you leave the voice transcription toggle turned off, you can continue to capture Scribes exactly as you have been doing.
What if I want to edit what I said later?
You can edit any text in your Scribe, including the voice transcribed instructions. Once your Scribe is completed, just click Edit and make your changes.
Is voice transcription available on both the Windows or Mac desktop apps?
Yes. Pro and Enterprise users can download either desktop app here.
Can I see what is being transcribed live?
If you’re using voice transcription in the browser extension, your words will appear in real time in Sidekick (the extension’s side panel). On the desktop app, transcription appears once you finish capturing — live transcription is coming soon to desktop.
If I opt for voice transcription, do I need to speak out the entire Scribe capture?
Not at all. You can choose to narrate certain instructions and choose to type out others, and use a mix to capture a Scribe.
Does voice transcription work behind a firewall?
Yes! Ask your IT department to allow these endpoints.
