Workflow documentation startup Scribe has raised $75 million in Series C funding at a $1.3 billion valuation to launch Scribe Optimize, a new platform that helps enterprises identify where automation and AI can have the biggest impact. The round, led by StepStone with participation from Amplify Partners, Redpoint Ventures, Tiger Global, Morado Ventures, and New York Life Ventures, follows a $25 million Series B last year.

Founded in 2019 by Jennifer Smith and Aaron Podoln, the startup gained traction with Scribe Capture, a tool that automatically records workflows and creates step-by-step guides, saving users up to 42 hours per month and improving onboarding by 40%. Now used by over 5 million people across 78,000 organizations and 94% of Fortune 500 companies, Scribe has doubled its revenue in the past year and plans to expand its 120-person team globally as it rolls out Scribe Optimize.

OpenAI is exploring consumer health tools, including a generative AI-powered personal health assistant, as part of a push to expand beyond its core AI products, Business Insider reports. The move follows key healthcare-focused hires — Nate Gross, cofounder of Doximity, as head of healthcare strategy, and Ashley Alexander, former Instagram executive, as VP of health products.

The initiative comes as tech giants like Google, Amazon, and Microsoft have previously struggled with similar health ventures. At the HLTH 2025 conference, Gross noted that ChatGPT now has about 800 million weekly users, many of whom already seek medical guidance through the platform.
