Activation
Auto-start: Scribe begins tracking when you start a conversation (default: on) Manual mode: Scribe only tracks when you explicitly activate it. Useful if you want it for some conversations but not all.When to Adjust Settings
Too much noise?
Turn off “Themes” and “Insights” if you only want decisions and action items.Missing important items?
Make sure all tracking categories are enabled. Switch to “Detailed” density.Want cleaner output for document generation?
Use “By type” grouping so decisions and actions are clearly separated before generating.Tips
- The default settings work well for most users. Only adjust if you find the Scribe too noisy or too quiet.
- Settings are per-account, not per-project. They apply everywhere.
- If you’re using Scribe primarily for Master Document prep, keep all categories on - more input data means better documents.
