AI Medical Dictation Software for Physicians

VoiceboxMD is cloud-based AI medical dictation software powered by a clinical speech recognition engine. Speak into a microphone on your computer or phone. The desktop app types your words straight into the active text field of any EHR: Epic, Cerner, athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Practice Fusion, and dozens more. Recognition uses a medical speech model, plus custom vocabulary for the terms you use. A built-in Clinical Notepad, customizable macros and templates, and mobile-to-desktop sync are all included.

VoiceboxMD AI medical dictation is EHR-agnostic. It works with every system that accepts keyboard input, including Epic, Cerner, athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Practice Fusion, Kareo, NextGen, AdvancedMD, DrChrono, MEDITECH, and Allscripts. The desktop app pastes dictated text into the field your cursor is in. There is no marketplace install and no HL7 or API build.

Yes. VoiceboxMD AI medical dictation runs natively on Windows 10 and 11, macOS 12 or later (Apple Silicon M1 through M4 and Intel), iOS 13 or later and Android, plus a web app. Dictate on your phone between exam rooms. Notes sync to your Mac or PC workstation, and the phone can also act as the desktop's microphone. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest on every device. Learn more about our dedicated Windows medical dictation build and the mobile dictation companion app.

VoiceboxMD pastes text at the cursor of whatever window has focus. Inside a Citrix, VMware or Remote Desktop session, that works only if the remote client passes the paste through, so test it in your own environment during the trial.

Built-in laptop microphones, USB headsets, and professional desktop mics are all supported by VoiceboxMD AI medical dictation. Most modern built-in mics are accurate enough for daily clinical use. For noisier clinic environments, a USB noise-cancelling headset is recommended for the best transcription accuracy. The mobile app uses your phone's built-in microphone.

VoiceboxMD AI medical dictation uses a medical speech model built for drug names, anatomical references, surgical procedures and clinical abbreviations. Choosing your specialty adds a starter list of terms, and practice-specific terms can be added to your personal vocabulary at any time. Compare us against the best medical dictation software for physicians.

VoiceboxMD uses the same medical speech model for every speaker; it does not train on your individual voice. Adding the names and terms you use to your custom vocabulary helps them come out right. The free trial is the best way to check how it handles your speech.

VoiceboxMD has 26 specialty settings, including primary care and family medicine, cardiology, pulmonology, psychiatry, orthopedics, dermatology, gastroenterology, neurology, OB/GYN, endocrinology, nephrology, ENT, radiology, surgery, pediatrics, chiropractic, dental, veterinary, prosthetics and orthotics, behavioral health and therapy, urology, oncology, ophthalmology, emergency medicine and pain management. Each setting adds a starter vocabulary, which you can extend with custom terms unique to your practice. Any other specialty can use the general setting with its own terms. See our purpose-built solutions for surgery dictation and dental dictation.

Yes. VoiceboxMD ships with both real-time AI medical dictation and an AI Medical Scribe. The scribe listens to the visit through your device's microphone and writes a structured note (SOAP, H&P or your own template). Every plan includes the AI Medical Scribe, starting with Essential ($49/mo). Power ($79/mo) adds billing codes, letters and audio upload; Premium ($99/mo) adds a writing style learned from your own edits. Read our deep dives on the best AI medical scribe and the different ambient dictation modes.

It depends on how you chart today, so we do not quote a fixed number. The time comes from speaking instead of typing, and from not finishing notes after hours. After-hours charting is tied to burnout, which the American Medical Association tracks as a driver of physicians leaving practice. The free trial is the best way to measure it on your own visits.

Three AI medical dictation plans are available. Essential at $49/mo includes the ambient AI scribe with no monthly note cap, plus real-time dictation with custom vocabulary, macros and templates. Power at $79/mo adds ICD-10 and CPT code suggestions, referral and prior-auth letters, after-visit summaries and pre-recorded audio upload. Premium at $99/mo adds a writing style learned from your own edits (it takes effect after 10 notes). Annual billing saves up to 8%. Every plan includes a free trial and a BAA.
