Frequently Asked Questions
Yes! Unlike browser-only tools, Trope is desktop-first. It works natively with Excel, QuickBooks, and other desktop applications on both macOS and Windows—plus all your web apps. This means you can capture and automate workflows that other tools simply can't reach.
While Scribe and Tango create static guides, Trope creates living workflows that stay fresh. We detect when apps change (drift detection), provide just-in-time guidance right where you work, and let you graduate safe steps into one-click automations with full audit trails. Plus, we work on desktop apps, not just browsers.
Drift detection automatically identifies when applications or documents change—like a UI update or a moved spreadsheet column—and flags outdated workflow steps. Instead of breaking silently, Trope alerts you and proposes fixes to keep your guides accurate and trustworthy.
Trope is ideal for SMB teams, mid-market operations, and Enterprise organizations with repeatable workflows—finance and accounting teams doing monthly closes, support teams handling data entry, IT help desks, property managers, and RevOps teams. If your work involves desktop apps and repeated processes, Trope can help.
Trope takes a human-in-the-loop approach. You start by recording a workflow, then guide your team with overlays. For low-risk, repetitive steps (like opening a file or filling a field), you can promote them to one-click automations. Critical steps always require approval, and every action is logged for compliance.
