A full transcription can be a significant amount of text. We've made it easy to format the transcription to suit your preferences and the task at hand.
Paragraph displays all the text as block paragraphs, allowing you to scan a lot of the conversation at the same time. This is useful to quickly find and navigate to key points in the consultation.
Dialogue displays the text as a conversation, with speaker labels and each speaker's text as a new paragraph. This is good when who said what is important in your written record.
Colour can be toggled on/off to highlight each speaker in a different shade. This is really useful with the paragraph view to give a clear overview with who said what at a glance.

The initial results from our transcription are impressive, however there are many factors that result in the occasional inaccuracy. For our perfectionists, we're with you. Unexpected results only need to be spotted and corrected once, ever.
DAN's transcription dictionaries identify and suggest corrections. They run when you open a transcription, displaying the count of items in a green badge. To list, highlight and approve the suggestions, click the icon.
You can approve all the edits in one click, or review each individually.
Clinical Dictionary. Identifies potentially incorrect transcription or long-hand of a clinical term, e.g. "buckle" => "buccal" or "upper right 7" => "UR7".
Personal Dictionary. Changes you make to your transcriptions are saved in your personal dictionary.
Dictation Dictionary. For our clinicians who use DAN for dictating notes and reports, terms such as "full stop" and "new paragraph" are replaced by punctuation.
