The best AI scribe for GPs

wai Clinicians. It drafts the consultation note, then the referral letters, the codes and cited, guideline-backed answers from the same consult, is UK native for UK GDPR, and publishes its price at $350 a clinician a month with a seven day trial. GPs can use it on their own account without the practice buying anything. The scribe inside the messaging tool many NHS practices already run covers the note, and one competitor holds the category's only randomised trial result.

Multi-problem GP consultations are the hardest case for every scribe and the first thing to test. Run any candidate on a week of real surgeries and check that separate problems stay separate, negations are written exactly, and safety-netting appears word for word. The category's known failure mode is inferring rather than recording, so the GP signs every note whatever tool is used.

The only randomised trial, across 238 physicians and about 72,000 encounters, cut note-writing time by 9.5 percent, roughly 41 seconds per encounter, and did not reduce after-hours record time. The larger saving for a GP sits outside the note, in letters, coding and front-desk work, which is the part wai covers alongside the consult.

Four things, in order. The multi-problem consult handled without merging problems into mush. Negations and safety-netting written exactly, because 'no chest pain' becoming 'chest pain' is the category's known failure mode. Referral letters drafted from the consult rather than started from a blank page. And UK data handling you can show an ICO auditor, with UK GDPR processing and DTAC answers on paper.

Simulated-encounter research puts average scribe hallucination near 7 percent, worst wherever the tool infers rather than records. In general practice that means the examination and the safety-netting. The GP reads and signs every note, whichever product wins.
