Does it handle medical terminology?

Cloud AI models are trained on medical literature. You can also add specific terms, drug names, and procedure codes to your custom dictionary.

Is it HIPAA compliant?

Ottex uses BYOK (Bring Your Own Key). Your audio goes directly to your API provider—we never see or store your data. Consult your compliance team for your specific requirements.

Does it work with Epic, Cerner, or other EHR systems?

Yes. Ottex works system-wide on macOS—any app where you can type, including browser-based EHR systems. Dictate directly into Epic, Cerner, Athena, or any other EHR.
