Key Differences
Capture multiple paths and decision points in a single guide with Workflow Branching.
%201.svg)
Document alternate paths across separate Scribes or sections and connect them with Pages or links.
Track step-level progress, completion, and drop-off to see how people move through a workflow and where they get stuck.
Track views, engagement, and activity across Scribes and Pages with Scribe Insights.
You control when capture starts. Tango only processes clicks, keystrokes, and screen content during an active Capture or Guide Me session, so only the work you choose becomes captured process knowledge.
Scribe records your browser activity across approved apps without requiring you to start or stop capture, then decides what to document.
