We’ve introduced a couple of small but powerful improvements to make your workflow even smoother.

▶️ Auto-Start Recording from Output Screen

Starting a new session is now quicker than ever.

When you begin a new session from the output screen, recording will start automatically—so you can jump straight into your next consultation without any extra clicks or delays. This helps maintain your flow, especially during back-to-back patients.

⚙️ Skip Stop Confirmation

We’ve also improved the stop recording experience to reduce interruptions.

You’ll now see an option “Don’t show me again” in the stop recording confirmation popup. Once selected, the popup will no longer appear in future sessions—making the process faster and distraction-free.

If you ever want to enable it again, you can easily turn it back on from the Profile section.

Chunk-Level Transcription 🎙️

Transcription is now processed in smaller chunks in real time.

This means you’ll start seeing parts of your conversation appear faster, instead of waiting for the entire session to finish. It makes the experience more responsive and allows you to quickly review or catch anything during the consultation itself.

Overall, this leads to:

• Faster visibility of notes
• Better confidence during recording
• Reduced wait time after sessions
  

🧭 New Tutorial Flow

We’ve also added a guided tutorial flow to help you get started.

Whether you’re using EkaScribe for the first time or exploring new features, the tutorial walks you through key steps and functionality, so you can start using it effectively right away without confusion.

Smart Medication Assistance (Beta)

EkaScribe recognises medications documented during consultations and, where applicable, provides standardised name suggestions for your consideration. These can be applied in one click to support clearer, more accurate, and consistent clinical documentation.

Note: This feature is currently in beta and not supported for Partner EMR integrations templates (e.g., Eka EMR Template).

Inline Edit Experience in Custom Templates

You can now edit notes directly within custom templates in the extension.

• Make quick changes directly in the notes view
• Seamless editing without leaving the workflow
  

Microphone Test Audio Option

A new microphone testing option ensures your setup is ready before you start recording. You can quickly test your microphone before starting a session to avoid interruptions during use.

Improvements in Session History

You can now load more sessions to access your complete history. Easily revisit older sessions and continue your work without losing context.

We’re continuously improving EkaScribe to make clinical documentation faster and more seamless. More enhancements and refinements are on the way.

We’ve introduced a couple of helpful improvements to make your experience smoother and more flexible during daily usage.

Delete Past Sessions 🗑️

Managing your session history is now easier.

If a session was started by mistake or is no longer needed, you can now delete it directly from Recent Sessions. Simply click on the delete icon, confirm your action in the popup, and the session will be removed.

This helps you keep your session list clean and relevant, without clutter from unwanted recordings.

Auto Language Detection 🌐

We’ve also made language selection smarter.

Once you enable auto-detect language in your default preferences, EkaScribe will automatically detect the input language based on your system or speech. This means you no longer need to manually select the input language every time you start a session.

It makes the workflow faster and more seamless—especially for users who switch between languages frequently.

We’ve significantly improved the editing experience on the EkaScribe website to make it faster, smoother, and more intuitive during real usage.

Earlier, editing your consultation output was a step-by-step process. You had to click edit on each section, make changes, save it, and then repeat the same for other sections. This not only took extra time but also interrupted your flow while reviewing notes.

With this update, we’ve introduced inline editing across the entire output.

Now, you can simply click anywhere in the document, make changes across multiple sections in one go, and save everything together. There’s no need to edit and save repeatedly for each section.

This makes the overall experience much more seamless—helping you quickly review, edit, and finalize your documentation without unnecessary steps or interruptions.

We’ve enhanced EkaScribe’s ability to understand tapering dosage instructions, making prescriptions more accurate and closer to your actual consultation.

Now, when you describe dosage changes over time—like “take three times a day for 3 days, then twice daily for 2 days, then SOS”—EkaScribe can intelligently interpret this and structure it correctly in the final prescription. It automatically breaks down the schedule into proper dosage steps instead of capturing it as plain text.

Earlier, such complex instructions were often missed or required manual correction in the EMR. With this update, tapering plans are now clearly reflected, reducing the need for edits and ensuring safer, more precise prescriptions.

This means:

• Better accuracy in capturing real consultation instructions
• Less manual effort while prescribing
• Clear, structured dosage plans for patients and EMR systems

Changes Available from Version 1.1.1

Today, we’re rolling out a complete revamp of the EkaScribe extension designed to make your consultation workflow faster, simpler, and more intuitive.

Over the past few weeks, we’ve rethought how doctors and in general clinicians interact with EkaScribe during consultations. The result is a cleaner interface, fewer steps, and better visibility into everything that matters.

Here’s what’s new 👇

UI Refresh & Experience Revamp ✨

We’ve redesigned the EkaScribe extension to create a cleaner, faster, and more intuitive workflow for doctors. The new interface reduces steps, improves visibility, and makes key actions more accessible during consultations.

Unified Main Screen Experience 🧭

We’ve simplified how you begin a session so you can start faster during consultations.

Now, preferences and recording are in one place - no extra steps or clicks. This makes it easier to begin instantly, with a cleaner layout that helps you focus on the patient while EkaScribe handles the documentation.

Integration Visibility 🔗

We’ve added a new Integration section so you always know which EMR is connected.

Now, instead of selecting integration template, you can instantly see your active integration (like Eka EMR) right on the main screen. This not only brings more clarity to your workflow but also helps us tailor your configurations and overall experience based on the EMR you’re using, making the journey more seamless during consultations. Additionally, option to select additional templates based on your notes requirement, specialisation remain same which you choose from Output Formats.

Microphone Selection on Home Screen 🎙️

You can now see and select your microphone directly from the home screen, making recording more reliable and predictable.

With the active mic clearly visible, there’s no more confusion about which device is being used. This gives you better control during consultations and helps you quickly switch or troubleshoot if needed, without interrupting your workflow.

Updates & Personalised Insights 💫

You’ll now notice a dedicated updates section on the home screen, so you’re always aware of what’s improving.

Instead of searching for updates, you can now discover new features and enhancements (like speed improvements) right within your workflow, keeping you informed without interrupting your consultations.

And soon you will see personalised insights tailor to you here.

Smarter Template & Output Experience 🧩

We’ve made templates easier and more powerful:

• The “Create Template” option is now part of Output Format selection, making it more contextual
• You can now convert templates instantly directly from the output screen.

This means less switching and faster documentation.

A Better Recording Experience 🎙️

Recording now feels more interactive and reliable.

With live waveform visualisation, you can instantly see that your audio is being captured, giving you more confidence during consultations. The improved recording UI also makes controls like pause and end session clearer and easier to use, so you stay in control without breaking your flow.

📂 A Completely Redesigned Output Screen

This is one of the biggest upgrades in this release.

• Transcription is now shown by default, no need to select it manually
• Output formats are now displayed side-by-side instead of a dropdown, making switching faster
• Quick actions like copy to EMR or clipboard are more accessible

Overall, reviewing and using your consultation output is now much smoother.

Navigation & Session Management 🔖

Improved Recent Sessions View 🕘

We’ve made it easier to revisit your past consultations.

With a cleaner and more structured session list, you can quickly scan through records, understand their status, platform at a glance, and access any session without confusion, saving time when you need to refer back.

Quicker Chat Support, Feedback, Help Center and more

Quick Access Menu (3-dot menu)

We’ve added a quick access menu so help is always within reach.

From here, you can easily share feedback, report issues, or visit the help centre - without leaving your workflow or interrupting your consultation.

Model Improvements 🤖

We’ve improved how EkaScribe understands dosage instructions during consultations.

Now, if you mention tapering/adjusting dosage verbally, the system will correctly capture it and reflect it in the final prescription. Earlier, this was often missed, so this update ensures more accurate and complete documentation without extra effort from your side.

✨ What This Means for You

This revamp is all about making your day-to-day consultations smoother and more efficient.

By reducing unnecessary steps and improving visibility across the extension, you can move faster with better control and clarity. We’re continuing to build EkaScribe based on your feedback & making it a more reliable assistant in your daily practice with every update.

We’ve introduced support for capturing IPD admission advice through EkaScribe, making your documentation more complete and reliable.

Now, whenever you mention admission during a consultation, EkaScribe will automatically detect it and display it in the output. This ensures that critical decisions like IPD admission advice are never missed and are properly recorded.

Additionally, when you copy the generated output to the EMR pad, this information is seamlessly carried forward and marked as “Advised”, helping maintain consistency across your workflow.

This enhancement is designed to reduce manual effort and ensure important clinical decisions are accurately documented without any extra steps.

Note: To use this feature, please ensure that the IPD admission section is configured in your EMR pad. Once added, the admission advice will automatically appear in your final output.
