When Scribe launched on Product Hunt five years ago, it was little more than a clever workaround—a desktop tool that let you hit record, do your task, and instantly turn it into step-by-step documentation. It wasn’t sleek, but it solved a real problem, and that was enough to get early adopters in the door.
Now it’s powering workflows for over 4 million people. The turning point, according to VP of Product Marketing Aliza Edelstein, was making the product free. From there, momentum snowballed. People pulled in their teams, requested embeds, lobbied for better defaults. Fifty thousand users once felt massive. Four million? That’s a whole new level of responsibility.
Along the way, something shifted. Users weren’t just using Scribe—they were translating it, writing blog posts in eight different languages, and reshaping how internal knowledge gets shared. What began as a solo tool quietly became a team staple.
Meta’s gunning for superintelligence and Zuck's at the wheel.
Mark Zuckerberg has formed a new “AI Superintelligence” team and is personally recruiting talent via a WhatsApp group called “Recruiting Party,” complete with dinner pitches at his California homes.
The ambition: not just AGI, but machines that surpass human intellect entirely.
The cost: seven-to-nine-figure offers to poach from Google and OpenAI, plus a multibillion-dollar investment in Scale AI to bring in Alexandr Wang’s data empire.
Why now?
Meta’s Llama 4 underwhelmed. Their next model—codenamed “Behemoth”—was meant to crush GPT-4.5 on STEM benchmarks, but it's been delayed. Zuck’s betting Meta’s ad machine can fund the comeback without outside cash.
Nika asked, “Remote workers, how do you stay productive while being isolated?”
Furqaan says he beats the silence by drifting into cafés or pinging a coworker for a quick video check-in, then reserves off-hours for deep-focus sprints when distractions dip. Constantine turns his tasks into a game with Pomodoro rounds, setting rewards for wins and penalties for slip-ups, and even locks his phone to stop doom-scrolling. Nigar Safarova sticks to strict 9-to-5 hours in a dedicated home office, breaking up the day with short walks and coffee catch-ups to reset her headspace.
Worth a skim if your WFH routine feels like working into an echo chamber.
