From medical speech recognition to a finished document.

Modern speech recognition models transcribe medical dictations to a high standard, even with regional accents and specialist terminology. That is now standard technology.

A raw transcript is only the beginning. Turning it into finished, accurate text requires medical language expertise, individual rules and a carefully designed workflow. Tippiti handles that process and delivers the finished text as a Word document, in the integrated editor or through the API.

What is often sold as innovation and what is simply standard today

Anyone who looks at providers of medical speech recognition software keeps running into the same buzzwords: GDPR, accent recognition, specialist vocabulary, multilingualism, fast processing.

Modern speech models recognise Swiss German and other regional speech variants, handle specialist medical terminology and deliver raw text quickly. No single provider can take credit for that. It is the state of the art. GDPR compliance and encryption are legal obligations, not product features.

Many providers still highlight these points. That is not dishonest, but the real difference between products lies elsewhere. It is not the speech recognition, but what happens to the raw text afterwards.

What is industry standard and what is legally required

Accents, dialects, specialist terms
Modern speech models understand Swiss German, other regional variants and complex medical terminology without special training. State of the art.

Speed and multilingualism
A property of modern models and hardware, not the achievement of any particular provider.

Privacy and security
Legal obligations in the EU, not product features.

Where transcriptions really fall down in day-to-day use

The technology is there. What matters is whether it is applied correctly, with the right domain knowledge and the right implementation.

Raw text, not finished text

Transcription produces words, but not a finished document. The transcript lacks structure and paragraph breaks, and dictation commands appear as ordinary words. Some tools address parts of this. But turning a cleaned-up transcript into a document that saves time for medico-legal experts and transcription services takes several more steps.

Medico-legal report language

Medico-legal experts dictate in a language of their own: inversions, nested sentences, domain-specific phrasing. What an AI without domain context would flag as an error is often perfectly correct in context. Anyone who fails to recognise this produces seemingly smooth text, distorting the content in the process.

Individual requirements

Abbreviations, date formats, ICD codes and formatting conventions differ from expert to expert and from one transcription service to the next. Generic tools do not know these differences and deliver a one-size-fits-all output that often does not fit in practice.

Live dictation vs. context

Many products rely on real-time transcription, producing a first pass while you speak. That is useful when text is needed immediately, but the first pass exists before the full recording is available. Tippiti is designed for the next stage. It uses the complete recording to correct the text, check cross-references and apply the intended structure.

Not a better model.
A better workflow.

The difference comes from the workflow, the domain knowledge and the technical decisions between upload and finished text.

Domain context

Domain knowledge instead of standard logic

The quality of a result depends on how well the AI understands the domain context: which phrasings are correct, which errors in the dictation must be fixed, how dictation commands are carried out, what belongs in the finished text and what does not.

Tippiti uses rules developed jointly with medico-legal experts and transcription services. These rules are continually refined. This means the output already fits most use cases without further configuration. If you have specific requirements on top of that, you can add your own rules.

  • Built with and for transcription services and medico-legal experts
  • Medico-legal report language is deliberately preserved
  • Dictation commands are recognised and carried out
  • Individual rules and text replacements supported
Agentic workflow

Built-in quality control

Tippiti does not work with a single AI pass. In the agentic workflow, several AI models work together, each with its own role in correction[TOOLTIP] Correction means identifying and fixing transcription and dictation errors. [/TOOLTIP], fact-checking[TOOLTIP] The fact-check verifies details that can be checked against a source, including proper names, medication names, ICD codes and place and postcode combinations. Clinical findings and diagnoses come from the clinician or medico-legal expert. [/TOOLTIP] and plausibility checks[TOOLTIP] The plausibility check looks for clear logical errors, further reducing transcription and dictation errors. [/TOOLTIP]. An independent AI validator[TOOLTIP] A different model runs a separate check for defined types of error, including spellings, place and postcode combinations, ICD plausibility and contradictions within the text.

Clinical judgements come from the clinician or medico-legal expert. The validator checks the text against the defined transcription and consistency criteria. [/TOOLTIP]
compares the result with the original recording and verifies that the applicable rules were followed and content was carried over correctly. If discrepancies are found, it triggers another correction round until the validation criteria are met.

The workflow checks the spelling of medication names, active ingredients, ICD codes, proper names and place names. It validates codes, matches postcodes to place names and checks dosages for plausibility. When a factual detail requires external verification, Tippiti automatically supplements the check with a web search[TOOLTIP] When a factual detail such as a new medication or rare proper name requires an external source, Tippiti automatically checks it against external references.

The search uses isolated factual terms only, keeping patient names, diagnostic context, dictation content and other sensitive data out of the query (see FAQ). [/TOOLTIP]
. It also detects logical contradictions in the text. That goes beyond correcting transcription errors.

If discrepancies are found, Tippiti corrects the affected passages and validates them again. This cycle continues until the result meets the requirements.

With dictations, Tippiti corrects, structures and validates what was dictated and checks the facts. In Assessment interview & case history mode, it writes up the recorded statements as a structured case history and interview section and can also write up a closing summary. Findings, diagnoses and expert opinions come from you. The finished result is available as a Word document, in the integrated editor or via the API. The Privacy page explains how this is covered legally (DPA, German § 203 StGB, no training on your data).

  • Correction and validation in separate roles
  • Check for rule compliance and factual accuracy
  • Fact-check of proper names, medication names, ICD codes and dictated spellings
  • Automatic feedback loop until the result passes validation
Customisation

Adaptable where it needs to be

The base rules cover most requirements. Medico-legal experts and transcription services can also have their own conventions for abbreviations, date formats, ICD code notation and formatting.

Tippiti supports instruction groups and text replacements for requirements beyond the base rules. You select the instruction group for each upload, alongside the processing mode. The available modes are Dictation, Conversation & interview and Assessment interview & case history.

  • Individual instruction groups per client or speciality
  • Text replacements and formatting rules take effect immediately
  • Tippsi Chat in the editor for follow-up edits
Engineering

Quality comes from the details

Send an audio file to a model, and you get text. For a usable result, that is often not enough. A reliable result requires many technical decisions: how to optimise the audio, split it at suitable pauses, preserve context between sections, handle long texts and deal with errors in difficult passages.

Each AI model also has its own edge cases and quirks, and Tippiti’s multi-stage workflow is built to handle them. All of these details determine whether you end up with just a result or with a result you can actually work with.

  • Audio optimisation and intelligent segmentation
  • Reliable processing even with challenging audio quality
  • Consistent context even in long texts
  • Iterative quality checks across multiple passes
  • Automatic web search for fact validation

What Tippiti delivers

Tippiti is purpose-built to process complete recordings for medico-legal experts, doctors and medical transcription services. The full recording provides the context for correction, structuring and validation. Across three processing modes, Tippiti turns dictations into finished documents, doctor–patient consultations and interviews into speaker-labelled transcripts with optional audible behavioural observations, and assessment interviews into structured case histories and interview sections.

Domain knowledge, multi-stage verification and your own stored rules work together so the result is ready for a focused final review. A final review is still needed, and with today’s technology promising anything else would not be credible. Instead of typing manually or checking a raw transcript word by word, you concentrate on targeted checks and occasional edits.

What you actually get
  • A finished, corrected text, not raw text to be reworked
  • Checked against your rules, not just against a generic standard
  • Multi-stage validation, with a feedback loop instead of a single pass
  • Follow-up edits with Tippsi Chat, right in the editor
  • Complete version history, so every change is traceable
