Medical dictation

Dictate the note.
Transcribed on your device.

ThinkScribe types what you say straight into your EHR, email or notes app, with the speech model running on the Mac or iPhone in front of you. No audio is transmitted, no vendor processes it, and it works with the Wi-Fi off.

How it works

Three steps, no upload.

  1. 1

    Press the hotkey

    On Mac, hold Option-Space (or your own shortcut) and speak. On iPhone, use the ThinkScribe keyboard in any app.

  2. 2

    It types where you are

    The text lands at your cursor, in whichever application you are documenting in. Offline, on the device.

  3. 3

    Clean it up

    Ask the AI to tidy the dictation into a formal note, or shorten it, before you file it.

EHR web apps, Mail, Notes, Word: anything with a text field. No integration project required.

No vendor in the loop

Rewrite on-device

Turn a spoken summary into a structured, formal note with one tap, still without leaving the device.

Record consultations

With consent, record and transcribe a consultation on iPhone; speakers are told apart and everything stays local.

Multilingual

Dictate in any of 28 supported languages, and transcribe recordings in 90+.

Works offline

Ward, clinic or home visit: transcription needs no signal, and nothing is queued for upload later.

Privacy

Why on-device matters in healthcare.

Cloud dictation services receive patient audio on their servers, which means agreements, audits and trust. With ThinkScribe, audio is converted to text on the clinician’s own device and is never sent to us. AI features can use Apple Intelligence, which Apple processes under its own terms, or the built-in ThinkScribe AI model, which runs on the device. ThinkScribe makes no compliance claim: confirm requirements with your compliance advisor.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Is patient audio ever sent to a server?

No. Speech recognition runs on the Mac or iPhone, the app has no account, and audio and text are never sent to us. For rewrite and summaries you can choose the built-in ThinkScribe AI model, which runs on the device, or Apple Intelligence, which is provided by Apple.

Does it work with my EHR?

ThinkScribe types into any text field on Mac and iPhone, including browser-based EHRs, so it works wherever you can place a cursor.

Is ThinkScribe HIPAA compliant?

ThinkScribe makes no compliance claim and holds no certification. Speech is transcribed on your own device and your recordings and transcripts are never sent to us. Whether your overall workflow, including any Apple services you enable, meets your obligations is for your compliance advisor to confirm.

Can I dictate medical terminology accurately?

ThinkScribe uses large open speech models with broad vocabularies, and you can switch engines per use. Correcting a term once in the transcript is quick; the rewrite step can also standardize formatting.
