How to speak to Hyperscribe
Last updated: November 5, 2025
You can use Hyperscribe to record either a patient-provider conversation or to record monologue dictation. Hyperscribe is not a speech-to-text dictation tool, meaning you can use natural language rather than speaking in Canvas commands.
Ambient Patient-Provider Dialogue
Provider: "Good morning, Mr. Smith. What brings you in today?"
Patient: "Hi, Dr. Chen. For the last three or four days, I've had this really sharp pain in my stomach, right here on the lower right side. It's not constant, but it really hurts when I move, and I felt nauseous yesterday."
Doctor: "I see. Any fever or vomiting?"
Patient: "No vomiting, but I checked my temperature this morning and it was 100.5°F. I just feel awful."
Doctor: "Okay, let's get you on the table so I can examine that area. I'm checking for tenderness and any rebound pain..."
Monologue Provider Dictation
Provider: New patient, John Smith, 42-year-old male, presents with a three-day history of sharp, intermittent right lower quadrant abdominal pain. Patient reports associated fever, measured at 100.5 degrees Fahrenheit this morning, and nausea. Physical exam reveals significant tenderness and guarding in the right lower quadrant with positive rebound tenderness. Suspected acute appendicitis, will consult surgery based on imaging results.
