"The fact that it works across every application, not just Heidi, makes it incredibly useful. Instead of jotting notes between patients so I don't forget, I just verbalize straight into a text editor and move on. It saves so much time, and I'm already finding new places to use it: my EHR, to-do lists, emails, and messages.”

Dr. Kenneth Liu, Board-Certified Periodontist in the United States
