Meet the Desktop App

Ambient Scribe on your Mac or PC — captures both sides of the conversation, and you type nothing.

"The backbone, now on your desktop."

Ambient Scribe

Both sides of the conversation — privately

A native app that runs right on your machine. Pair a Bluetooth headset and it captures both sides of the call — perfect for telemedicine and video visits.

Capture content — no integration needed

A quick-key screen capture pastes straight onto the clipboard. Snap a chart, scan a driver's license or insurance card — no separate screen-capture tool, no nailed-up integration.

Ambient Scribe

It knows your context

For locked-down EHRs — like Veradigm running inside Parallels — the desktop app detects who's logged in and which patient is open, and bridges that context into Ambient Scribe.

Same backbone. On your desktop.

It auto-updates from the web — nothing to maintain. It pairs with the Chrome extension. And alerts and handoffs from the Receptionist land right here too.
