FixScribe Team

FixScribe is a web app that turns a video of a repair or an assembly into a step-by-step guide, and then helps the next person do the same job live. You record or upload one video, with or without talking. FixScribe recognizes the object and the task, splits the video into steps and writes a clear instruction for each one. Every step shows the part involved outlined on the image, the screws numbered in the order they come out, a short clip of that moment and how well the step is backed by the video. It also builds the reverse guide to put everything back together, with a count of every screw that has to return. Jobs that need a professional, such as gas or mains electricity, are refused. The live coach follows you through your camera while you work: it recognizes which step you are on, marks the parts on screen, tells you what comes next and answers spoken or typed questions, each answer linked to the right moment of the original video. On the live app you can open four finished guides and try the live coach on a phone or computer, with nothing to install. To turn your own video into a guide, FixScribe runs on your computer with a few commands. It works with any object you take apart or put together: electronics, furniture, appliances, instruments and more.
