About Us
Secure, accurate medical dictation designed by clinicians, for clinicians, leveraging the latest advancements in AI.
Our Origin: Evolving a Trusted Practice
Dictation has been a cornerstone of clinical medical practice for many decades, allowing healthcare professionals to efficiently capture detailed patient encounters and correspondence. However, translating those recordings into accurate, usable text has traditionally relied on dedicated transcription services or medical secretaries.
Dictately.ai founder, Dr. Magnus Lynch, experienced this reality firsthand. Dictating a significant number of clinical letters and notes each week, he understood the critical need for accuracy and efficiency but found himself frustrated by the gap between traditional methods and the promise of digital solutions.
For years, Dr. Lynch explored numerous digital dictation tools, searching for an alternative that could finally match the reliability and nuance of a skilled medical secretary. While many offered convenience, they often fell short on accuracy, particularly with complex medical terminology, varied accents, and the subtleties of clinical language, leading to time-consuming manual corrections.
The AI Breakthrough & Real-Time Advantage
The game changed with the advent of state-of-the-art Large Language Models (LLMs). These powerful AI systems possess an extraordinary capacity to understand context, grammar, and highly specialized vocabularies, finally making human-level transcription accuracy achievable for medical dictation.
Crucially, this technology enables real-time dictation and transcription. This capability is transformative for clinical practice. It means patient letters can be finalized and potentially sent immediately after a consultation, drastically reducing turnaround times. Furthermore, it facilitates contemporaneous documentation – creating accurate records at the point of care, which is increasingly vital for robust medicolegal compliance and continuity of care.
Optimized for Clinical Accuracy
Recognizing this potential, Dr. Lynch set out to harness these advanced AI models and meticulously tailor them for the specific needs of clinicians. Dictately.ai is the culmination of this dedicated effort.
It goes beyond simply connecting to an AI. Dr. Lynch personally undertook extensive testing and refinement, rigorously evaluating different AI models and optimizing the processing pipeline to achieve the highest possible accuracy for medical documentation, significantly minimizing the burden of corrections.
Security and Compliance at the Core
Handling sensitive patient information demands the highest standards of security and privacy. This principle has guided the development of Dictately.ai from the very beginning.
Our platform integrates robust security protocols and is engineered for compliance with the strict requirements of GDPR. A fundamental aspect of our security posture is our strict non-data retention policy for audio recordings. Audio is processed live for transcription and is not stored by Dictately.ai after the text is generated, ensuring data minimization and enhancing patient privacy.
Our Mission
Our mission at Dictately.ai is clear: To empower healthcare professionals with a dictation tool that is exceptionally accurate, remarkably efficient, and uncompromisingly secure.
We strive to return valuable time to clinicians, simplify documentation workflows, and provide a trusted, modern dictation solution that supports timely communication and robust record-keeping, ultimately allowing more focus on delivering excellent patient care.
