Suki is a voice-enabled, AI-powered digital assistant that reduces physician burnout by reducing the documentation burden and improving access to information. Imagine being able to create perfect medical notes in less than half the time simply by talking to Suki just like the consumer voice assistant you have on your phone. Suki uses advanced AI and machine learning to power a true digital assistant that can create perfect medical notes, access information or issue other commands. Suki is for doctors, nurse practitioners and other medical professionals, and it is so much more than a regular clinical transcription or dictation service. Here are some examples of how you can use Suki: “Suki, what is my schedule today?" “Suki, create a followup note for Jane Roberts" “Suki, add to history. Today patient’s pain is much improved." “Suki, the physical exam was normal" "Suki, show my unfinished notes" On average and based on time motion studies, Suki users spend 76% less time creating clinical notes and save up to $30,000 per year per physician on transcription costs. Doctors also spend less time in their medical record system looking for information. Suki gets better over time by learning more about your individual speech patterns and medical practice. In addition, we frequently release new features and functionality. There are no set up costs. Implementation takes minutes, not hours or days. And, you get a dedicated account manager located in the United States. This is what our users say about Suki: "Suki is like electricity, once you have it you can't imagine going without it” "I love Suki, she helps me get my notes done faster and I don't have to type" "The notes are so accurate, I don't even have to review them word for word. I know they are perfect and I trust Suki to get it right” "Even if the product didn't improve from it's current state, it would still be better than Dragon” "Things are going great and I think that the metrics done of my completion of charts and time involved will be impressive. I know I am happy with the extra time I get back.”
