    DeepScribe

    DeepScribe

    DeepScribe

    DeepScribe’s AI-powered scribe captures the natural conversation between a clinician and patient and automatically writes medical documentation, allowing clinicians to focus on patient care instead of note-taking. Through an easy-to-use mobile app, DeepScribe records the natural clinical encounter and transcribes it in real time. Our proprietary AI then extracts the medical information from the transcript, classifies it into a standard note, and then integrates that note directly into a clinician’s electronic health record system. Unlike traditional scribes, dictation tools, or other solutions, the ambient nature of DeepScribe means it doesn’t intrude on the patient visit or disrupt the clinical workflow. Providers can simply talk to their patient like normal, then review their notes after the visit and sign-off in their EHR. DeepScribe handles documentation, charting, and even populates suggested diagnostic coding based on the information extracted from the visit.
