Scribetech - News - OpenRad integrates Augnito into its cloud-based reporting

Written by Scribetech | 30 Aug 2023

[London, 31 August 2023] – With Augnito voice-driven AI transcription capabilities now integrated into the OpenRad Cloud (by Biotronics3D), its English speaking users will benefit from the increased efficiency and functionality that Augnito’s native speech reporting offers.

Scribetech today announced the successful integration of Augnito Voice Services™, an AI-powered voice-driven speech recognition API/SDK, into OpenRad Cloud (by Biotronics3D) – a remote radiology reporting platform.

OpenRad is a supplier of innovative radiology solutions for static and mobile diagnostic imaging centres worldwide, empowering healthcare professionals and the wider clinical research community with fully digitalised workflow processes that connect people, technology, and data.

Augnito is a secure and portable clinical speech recognition suite that offers medical professionals highly accurate, fast, effortless ways to dictate and transcribe live clinical data, on any mobile or desktop device – without the need for typing or outsourced services. For integrators and systems developers, Augnito delivers effective speech-enablement and voice-driven capability to many applications and clinical systems.

With the Augnito Voice Services API/SDK integrated into the cloud-based reporting platform, OpenRad can assist a severely understaffed and overworked profession with time-saving, highly accurate speech recognition technology. The combined solution means radiologists can accommodate increasing workloads and ever-expanding levels of diagnostic reporting from wherever they have an internet connection.

By speech-enabling the OpenRad Cloud reporting solution, Augnito delivers enhanced value, increased efficiency, and clinical data accuracy to OpenRad’s thousands of reporters. As well as making workloads more manageable, this also positively impacts the patient journey – from diagnosis to hospital stays – with an improved more seamless continuum of care.

OpenRad has also selected to add Augnito Spectra as a standalone “off the shelf” speech recognition product to its solution offering. The two Augnito products address multiple technology challenges previously experienced by OpenRad reporters. Many of these issues were the result of legacy non-interoperable products that are effective in isolation, but do not work so well together as one cohesive workflow.

Shiraz Austin, Managing Director at Scribetech (UK) Ltd and Co-Founder of Augnito stated: “Augnito is a disruptive innovation technology that carries Scribetech’s commitment to data accuracy along with our strong 20+ year heritage of delivering digital dictation solutions and transcription services to the NHS. It brings speech recognition to the clinical healthcare professionals who need it the most, alleviating clinical risk, cutting costs, and avoiding difficult and time-consuming upgrades on legacy systems.”

“In the UK, we look to provide Augnito speech recognition through a highly selective network of best in breed partners that share our approach to developing solutions that embrace AI innovation to enhance healthcare intelligence. OpenRad solidifies this strategy.”

“Augnito will augment the existing support and reporting benefits that our cloud-based reporting platform offers radiologists in the public and private healthcare system across the UK and English-speaking countries. This integration enables OpenRad to expand on its mission to transform healthcare through an open diagnostic network. At OpenRad we put patient outcomes first by speeding up clinical decision-making through the seamless connection and collaboration of healthcare experts, imaging providers, referrers, and their patients.” stated Brian Plackis Cheng, CEO of OpenRad.
