Choose the documentation mode that fits the encounter.

Use ambient capture during the conversation, dictate the note after the visit, or begin with a Transient Note when patient identity is not yet available. Whatever the starting point, you review, edit, and sign the final note.

Choose how this note begins.

Each mode fits a different documentation moment. Every draft remains under clinician control and requires review before sign-off.

AI-Assisted

Inside Scribe Mutual

See the clinician workspace in context.

These Windows beta screens show how patient context, documentation choices, and encounter information come together.

Scribe Mutual patient dashboard showing a clinical summary, medications, allergies, problems, notes, and history sections. — **Review the patient's history before the visit**See medications, allergies, problems, recent labs, prior notes, and history in one place before documentation begins.

Scribe Mutual screen showing a standardized note type and the choice between conversation capture and clinician-authored Dictation. — **Choose how the note begins**Select conversation capture or clinician-authored Dictation, with the standardized note type visible before capture starts.

Scribe Mutual encounter workspace showing intake, documentation stages, encounter details, problems, allergies, medications, and medical history. — **Keep encounter context together**Review intake information, problems, allergies, medications, and medical history alongside the active note.

Beta Windows interface shown with synthetic demonstration data. Interface details may change during beta.

Mode 01 · Ambient

AI-Assisted

Record the visit and receive a structured draft for review.

Record the encounter with pause and resume, so an interruption doesn't cost you the note. Multiple segments stitch back together on their own.
Transcription tuned for medical language, with role-aware handling that keeps your voice and the patient's distinct.
A structured draft in one of ten supported note formats, with LOINC mappings: consultation, history and physical, progress, referral, discharge summary, emergency department, operative, procedure, radiology report and laboratory report.
Problems, medications and labs are extracted as structured data, not just prose, so the chart stays usable after the note is filed.
Ruled-out findings and family history stay off the active problem list, so your review is spent confirming what belongs rather than deleting what never should have been added.

What it produces

SUBJECTIVE

62-year-old man with three days of productive
cough, subjective fever, and right-sided
pleuritic chest pain. No hemoptysis. No recent
travel or sick contacts.

ASSESSMENT AND PLAN

Community-acquired pneumonia, well appearing
and suitable for outpatient management. Start
oral antibiotics. Return precautions discussed.
Follow up in one week if not improving.

A draft in one of ten supported standardized note formats with a LOINC document-type mapping, ready for clinician review and editing.

Mode 02 · Clinician-authored

Dictation

Your words, in your order, with your emphasis.

Dictation Mode lets you speak the note after the visit in your own words. Scribe Mutual structures the transcript for review without generating new clinical content.
Dictation Mode does not use a generative language model to rewrite the clinician's words or infer new clinical content.
If a connection interruption creates missing audio, Dictation Mode marks the affected interval for clinician review.
Pause and resume as needed, edit anything, and sign the note when it accurately reflects the encounter.
Dictation processing uses subprocessors operating under Business Associate Agreements. Applicable processing, retention, and training restrictions are documented in Scribe Mutual's subprocessor disclosures.

What it produces

Patient tolerated the procedure well with no
immediate complications.

PLAN

Amoxicillin 875 mg twice daily for ten days.
Return precautions discussed.

This is what was spoken.

Mode 03 · Before the chart exists

Transient Note

Start documenting before you commit any patient data to our system.

Built for clinicians who aren't ready to store patient information with us yet, whether that's during an evaluation, a pilot, or a first week of use.
No patient demographics are attached to the note. Nothing identifies whose visit it was.
Capture the clinical content now and decide about the chart later.
Notes are removed automatically within a maximum of 12 hours.
Share links are time limited and expire with the note or their own timer, whichever comes first.
Finalizing into the permanent chart requires adding patient demographics, so the step is deliberate and yours to take.

Add demographics when you're ready, and the note becomes a permanent draft you can review and sign.

Side by side.

The differences that matter when you're deciding which mode to reach for.

All three modes are included once your clinician beta access is enabled.

What stays in your hands.

A clinician documentation tool is only as trustworthy as its limits. Here are ours:

The note is a draft until you sign it. Nothing is sent, billed, shared, or finalized from a draft.
We won't auto-sign notes.
Drafts are grounded in the captured encounter and remain subject to your review.
In Dictation Mode, Scribe Mutual structures the transcript without generative rewriting or inferred clinical content.
We don't sell your audio, your notes, or your patients' data, and we don't run a data-partnerships business.
FHIR and C-CDA export are available so structured information can move without depending on a closed Scribe Mutual format.

Where the note goes after you sign.

After you sign, the note becomes part of the patient's chart inside Scribe Mutual. You can export it as PDF, DOCX, or plain text, or generate standards-based packages (FHIR and C-CDA) when your workflow needs structured data rather than a readable document.

Patient access is in active development. When it opens, signing a note is intended to release it automatically to the patient's Scribe Mutual account. If you sign on the day of the visit, the patient should receive it that day.

Care-team continuity workflows are also in active development so authorized clinicians can work from shared, current information. Access and sharing behavior will be validated before release.

Each visit contributes to a longitudinal record using a FHIR R4 data model structured around US Core 6.1.0. FHIR and C-CDA export are available now; broader exchange paths and live EHR delivery require practice-specific configuration and validation.

Getting started.

We are preparing for an open beta. When the Windows installer is available, clinicians can download it and sign up. The founder personally enables access after onboarding; downloading or creating an account does not automatically unlock clinical features. See download availability and setup steps, or request more information about your workflow.

Your specialty and the kinds of encounters you document most.
Which capture modes actually fit your week.
The EHRs and other systems you work alongside.
Practical onboarding logistics: devices, sign-on, the Business Associate Agreement, and how the trial period maps to your week.
Any workflow-specific access, practice, or destination verification needed for the features you plan to use.

A note on what this page is.

Ambient capture, Dictation Mode, and Transient Notes are included once your clinician beta access is enabled. The beta offer includes 30 days and up to 50 notes at no charge. A Business Associate Agreement is included with beta onboarding, and PHI-capable features are enabled only after the applicable agreement is effective. PDF, DOCX, TXT, FHIR, and C-CDA export are available. Live EHR delivery, SMART on FHIR launch, HL7 v2 exchange, Direct Messaging, and structured document import require separate configuration and validation.
