Immersive Labs vs Scribe: at a glance
What is Immersive Labs?
The cyber-readiness platform stops testing only people and starts testing the agents.
Immersive Labs sells provable cyber readiness — training, simulations and assessments that produce evidence a workforce can handle an incident. The last three months have been almost entirely an AI build-out: an AI Baseline Assessment measuring literacy across departments, an AI Program Builder that assembles training programs, AI Knowledge Pass gating tool access on verified competency, Project Mythos crisis simulations for executives, custom goals layered on top of the resilience pathways introduced in June, and an ATLAS heat map placing team activity against the 16 MITRE ATLAS tactics. Feed entries are short launch teasers, so direction is legible but scope is not.
What is Scribe?
Scribe is grounding its Optimize agent in company context while widening how docs get captured.
Scribe's recent work splits cleanly in two: making the Optimize agent answer from an organization's own context, and broadening what can become a Scribe in the first place. Admin-set business context now feeds every agent chat, and video uploads join browser capture as a source for step-by-step documentation. Around those, the team is filling in workspace basics — departments, cross-team sharing, and now a sortable list view for the library.

Immersive Labs
2.5EDTECH
The cyber-readiness platform stops testing only people and starts testing the agents.
◆ Current state
Immersive Labs sells provable cyber readiness — training, simulations and assessments that produce evidence a workforce can handle an incident. The last three months have been almost entirely an AI build-out: an AI Baseline Assessment measuring literacy across departments, an AI Program Builder that assembles training programs, AI Knowledge Pass gating tool access on verified competency, Project Mythos crisis simulations for executives, custom goals layered on top of the resilience pathways introduced in June, and an ATLAS heat map placing team activity against the 16 MITRE ATLAS tactics. Feed entries are short launch teasers, so direction is legible but scope is not.
◆ Where it's heading
The platform's premise has been that readiness must be measured rather than assumed, and it is now applying that premise in two directions at once. For people, the measurement is being wired to consequences — competency unlocking AI tool access rather than merely appearing on a dashboard. For systems, the subject under test has changed: the agentic harness pressure-tests an AI agent's safety, financial controls and human judgement before it reaches production, which is assurance of software rather than of staff. The MITRE ATLAS mapping serves both, giving the AI-threat work the same coverage framing the platform already used for adversary tactics.
◆ Prediction
Expect the agentic harness to acquire the reporting layer everything else here has — coverage maps and board-ready evidence — since every capability in this window eventually arrives at proof rather than practice.
Scribe
6.3EDTECH
Scribe is grounding its Optimize agent in company context while widening how docs get captured.
◆ Current state
Scribe's recent work splits cleanly in two: making the Optimize agent answer from an organization's own context, and broadening what can become a Scribe in the first place. Admin-set business context now feeds every agent chat, and video uploads join browser capture as a source for step-by-step documentation. Around those, the team is filling in workspace basics — departments, cross-team sharing, and now a sortable list view for the library.
◆ Where it's heading
The capture engine is being decoupled from the browser recorder: if any video can become a Scribe, the product's input surface stops being tied to a live session. At the same time the agent is moving from a generic assistant to one that reasons over an org's tools and goals, which is what makes it defensible against a general-purpose chatbot pointed at the same documents. Library and org management work is following the customer size that grounding attracts.
◆ Prediction
Expect the next moves to push the Optimize agent further into retrieval over the library itself, and to extend the video-to-doc path with more source types or bulk import. Library management is likely to keep gaining filtering and ownership controls as document counts grow.
