About
Livescribe designs and manufactures smartpens that capture handwritten notes and audio, syncing them to a companion app for search, playback, and sharing. Founded in 2007 by Jim Marggraff — inventor of the LeapFrog Fly Pentop Computer and LeapPad Learning System — and based in Oakland, California, Livescribe became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sweden's Anoto Group in 2015. Its product line has evolved from the original Pulse and Echo smartpens to today's LivePen, which uses AI-powered transcription to convert handwriting into digital text.
