Choose Display if

Product and engineering teams that already generate HTML docs and prototypes with coding agents and want one private place to share, review and version them.

  • Works with any agent, so Claude and Codex users can edit the same doc
  • Unlimited free viewers and commenters on every plan
  • Flat Team price covers up to 150 editors

Look elsewhere if: Teams that mainly need a classic wiki or office-file storage with mature compliance paperwork (Confluence, Google Drive).

Choose Scribe if

Operations, IT and enablement teams that need accurate screenshot-based SOPs and training guides without writing them by hand.

  • Turns a ten-minute documentation task into a quick recording
  • Guides are consistent and easy to update after UI changes
  • Embeds cleanly in Confluence, Notion, SharePoint and help centers

Look elsewhere if: Teams that want narrated video explainers or in-app guided tours inside their product (Loom, Whatfix).
