Twigo is an advanced AI-powered assistant purpose-built for modern medical professionals, designed to dramatically reduce doctors’ administrative workload and streamline clinical documentation workflows. Tailored for hospitals, clinics, and individual practitioners, Twigo listens to real-time consultations between doctors and patients, transcribes the conversation into a chat-style interface, and automatically generates detailed case sheets—all with a single tap. Doctors simply initiate recording at the start of a consultation and stop it when finished; Twigo handles everything in between. From structured transcription to intelligent data parsing, Twigo ensures accurate and compliant clinical documentation without interrupting the patient-doctor interaction. It supports multilingual transcription, including Indian regional languages and major international languages, making it suitable for diverse linguistic environments. Twigo also offers structured outputs across key clinical areas, including presenting complaints, history of illness, physical examination, medication, allergies, and prescriptions—eliminating the need for manual data entry and freeing up doctors to focus on patient care. What sets Twigo apart is its clinical accuracy, intuitive user experience, and deep specialization in medical workflows.
