About

Scribe0

Features
Read full description

Scribe0 is a medical dictation scribe built for clinicians who care where their data goes. Speech recognition runs entirely on your iPhone's Neural Engine: recorded audio is transcribed on the device and never uploaded, no account required. DICTATE ANYWHERE Record a consult or dictate a note and watch the transcript appear live. Import audio shared from other apps (voice memos, call recordings) straight into a transcript. Optional speaker labels separate the voices in a conversation. TURN TRANSCRIPTS INTO DOCUMENTS One tap reshapes a raw transcript into the document you actually need: a tidied dictation, a SOAP note, a referral letter, a plain-language patient summary. Simple prompts run on-device with Apple Intelligence on supported iPhones. For complex restructuring and reasoning, such as multi-problem SOAP notes, referral letters and risk summaries, Scribe0 Cloud puts state-of-the-art language models on tap, running on sovereign Australian infrastructure that processes text in Australian AWS regions only. Every account-free install includes 10 cloud enhancements a day; on-device enhancement is unlimited. A PROMPT LIBRARY THAT'S YOURS Edit any prompt, write your own, choose each prompt's AI backend, and browse a growing gallery of community prompts for different specialties. Imported prompts never change where your text is sent. PRIVATE BY ARCHITECTURE • Audio never leaves your iPhone: transcription is fully on-device • Cloud prompts are opt-in, clearly disclosed, and send transcript text only • Transcripts are encrypted at rest, with an optional Face ID app lock • No accounts, no analytics, no tracking Your dictation history is searchable and shareable, and stays on your phone. Scribe0 is a documentation aid, not a medical device. It does not provide diagnosis or treatment advice, and clinical content should always be reviewed before use.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Scribe0 at none against Microsoft PowerPoint's 14. Microsoft PowerPoint's advantage is chart position (#28 vs unranked) and device support (4 vs 1). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
