To achieve the best results and a seamless experience with Accurx Scribe’s speech-to-text function, follow these guidelines:
Speak Naturally
Accurx Scribe is designed to understand regular, fluent speech. This means you can talk at a natural pace using your normal voice. Don’t overthink each word—let the conversation flow.
Initial Transcription Appears in Light Grey Text
As you dictate, your speech will appear on the screen in light grey text. This is a preliminary transcription and might include minor errors or duplicates, but there’s no need to worry.
Automatic Proofreading and Adjustments
When you pause during your dictation, Accurx Scribe’s automatic proofreading feature kicks in:
Any duplicates are removed.
Grammar and punctuation are added automatically where relevant.
The text is refined to better match what you actually said.
Verbalise Formatting and Punctuation as Needed
If you want to control specific formatting or add punctuation while dictating, you can say:
“New paragraph” → Adds a new paragraph (\n\n).
“New line” → Creates a new line (\n).
“Period” → Inserts a period (.).
“Comma” → Inserts a comma (,).
“Left parenthesis” → Adds “(”.
“Right parenthesis” or “End parenthesis” → Adds “)”.
“Question mark” → Inserts a question mark (?).
“Exclamation mark” → Inserts an exclamation mark (!).
“Hashtag” → Inserts a hashtag (#).
It is essential that the clinician reviews all of their Accurx Scribe outputs before they are added to the medical record or shared with patients and other services.
