About Scribe Downloader

When team access shifts or subscriptions lapse, your process documentation can vanish overnight. Scribe Downloader lets you export guides as formatted PDFs—complete with screenshots, annotations, and click indicators—so your knowledge remains yours.

A single click turns any Scribe guide into a portable file that works offline. Batch export queues multiple guides at once, organizing them by workspace and collection automatically.

You can share these PDFs internally without requiring recipients to have Scribe accounts. Desktop notifications keep you informed, and duplicate detection prevents wasted effort on already-exported files.

Happy Users

Recent customer feedback

Short, practical feedback from people using Scribe Downloader in real workflows.

Saved months of SOP work

I run operations for a mid-size agency and we had over 200 Scribes when leadership decided to switch documentation tools. This extension let me export everything in an afternoon. The PDFs look exactly like the originals.

Useful for consultants

As a consultant I create Scribes for clients and need offline copies for my records. Batch export handles everything and the folder organization by workspace is a nice touch.

Great backup tool for teams

Our team plan was downgraded and we almost lost access to 50+ training guides. Exported them all as PDFs right before the change. Screenshots and annotations came through cleanly.
