An AI scribe for veterinarians that records appointments and automatically generates formatted SOAP notes and client-ready summaries.
Brain Dump: Voice to Markdown is a voice-first note-taking app for iPhone, iPad, and Mac that captures spoken thoughts and transcribes them into editable text. Transcription runs on-device using Apple's speech engine, so it works offline and audio never leaves the device. Each note is stored as a standard plain-text or Markdown (.md) file synced through iCloud, which lets it work with Obsidian, iA Writer, and other text editors rather than locking notes inside a proprietary cloud. The app supports background recording, silence detection, and Siri shortcuts for hands-free capture, and it can transcribe Apple Voice Memos or other local audio and video files. An optional paid AI tier adds cleanup, summaries, and action-item extraction, plus template-based rewriting. Core recording, transcription, editing, iCloud sync, Siri, and offline mode are free. It is aimed at journalers, Obsidian users, and people capturing meeting notes, ideas, or quick thoughts when speaking is faster than typing. Developed by Saravanan Pitchaimani; listed in the App Store Productivity category.

ScribbleVet is an AI-powered digital scribe built specifically for veterinarians and their teams. It captures a consultation by recording the appointment audio or by accepting dictated notes, then transcribes and processes the conversation to produce a fully formatted SOAP (Subjective, Objective, Assessment, Plan) note within minutes, filtering out irrelevant chatter. Beyond notes, it can draw visual dental charts for COHAT documentation, generate client-ready discharge instructions and recap emails, and summarize existing medical records. It supports multiple languages, including English, Spanish, and French. ScribbleVet is available as iOS and Android apps and through a web app, and offers one-click transfer of notes into practice management systems such as ezyVet, Pulse, and Vetspire. Customizable SOAP templates and a Plumb's drug monograph integration are also included. It is aimed at veterinarians across general practice, emergency, and specialist settings, from small animal to equine medicine, and allows technicians and front-desk staff to be added to an account. ScribbleVet has been adopted by the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine.
