Push-to-talk, in any field
Dictate into any field in the patient record — the consult note, a letter, a task — without switching apps.
How dictation behaves
Brigid transcribes and formats. You review and sign.
Consult dictation
Record the consultation itself and get a transcript filed to the encounter for you to review.
EU speech route
Dictation audio is processed on the configured EU speech route — see /ai-medical-scribe for the detail.
Formats as you speak
Brigid formats the transcript into paragraphs and punctuation as you dictate, not a wall of raw text.
You review, you sign
The transcript is a draft of your own words. You correct it and sign it before anything is filed.
Files to the record
Once signed, the transcript files against the patient's record and the consultation it belongs to.
How consultants start
From voice note to signed record.
- Day 1
Try push-to-talk
Dictate into a note or letter field and see the transcript come back for review — nothing files until you sign.
- Week 1
Record a consult
Record a full consultation and review the transcript against your own house style before it files.
- Month 1
Make it routine
Dictation becomes the way notes reach the record — you still review and sign every one.
Questions consultants ask
The dictation question, answered straight.
- Does Brigid write the note, or just transcribe it?
- It transcribes. Dictation returns a transcript for you to review — it does not generate an assessment, plan or letter. You decide what belongs in the record and you sign it.
- Where does the dictation audio go?
- Audio is processed on the configured EU speech route. The full launch boundary — provider, region and what's still a launch gate — is set out on /ai-medical-scribe and /compliance.
- Can I dictate into any field, or only the consultation note?
- Push-to-talk dictation works in any field in the patient record — a note, a letter, a task — not only the consult transcript.
- What happens after I sign the transcript?
- Once you sign, it files against the patient's record and the consultation it belongs to. Nothing is represented as filed before that server-confirmed step.
- How does this compare to DictateIt?
- Both are dictation tools for Irish clinicians with different scopes and pricing. See the fact-by-fact comparison on /vs-dictateit before deciding.
