Key Features

Everything you need for accurate voice-to-text transcription

Patient Privacy

In Local Mode, transcription runs on your computer and does not upload audio for transcription. Clinical teams should still review workstation security, retention, access controls, and Cloud Mode settings.

Medical Vocabulary

Whisper can recognize many medical terms, drug names, anatomical terms, and diagnostic phrases, but clinicians should test their own vocabulary and review output before using it in records.

Works With EHR Systems

Dictate into many EHR fields that accept typed or pasted text, including common browser-based and desktop workflows. Test your exact field before using it for real notes.

Fast Clinical Notes

Dictate a complete patient encounter note in minutes instead of typing for 15-20 minutes. Reduce documentation burden.

GPU Acceleration

With supported NVIDIA GPU acceleration, transcription can be faster than CPU-only processing. Speed depends on model size, hardware, and audio length.

Multi-Language Support

Serve diverse patient populations. Transcribe notes in 29+ languages for multilingual clinical environments.

Reduce Clinical Documentation Burden

Documentation can consume a large part of a physician workday. Voice dictation can reduce typing time for some documentation workflows after the clinician adapts the workflow and reviews the output.

StarWhisper provides Whisper-based speech recognition for clinical dictation workflows that can run locally on your Windows PC. Unlike cloud-only dictation tools, Local Mode does not upload patient audio for transcription.

How Doctors Use StarWhisper

  • Dictating SOAP notes and progress notes between patients
  • Creating discharge summaries and referral letters
  • Transcribing recorded patient interviews for research
  • Drafting medical reports and documentation
  • Converting voice memos into structured clinical text

Frequently Asked Questions

Can StarWhisper support HIPAA-sensitive workflows?
StarWhisper can support HIPAA-sensitive workflows when configured for Local Mode, because transcription can run on the user's device without uploading audio for transcription. This is not a HIPAA certification or legal determination. Each practice should review workstation security, retention, access controls, update behavior, and Cloud Mode settings with its own compliance program.
How does it compare to Dragon Medical?
StarWhisper offers a lower-cost Windows dictation workflow to test against your own clinical vocabulary and EHR. The free tier includes 3,000 words/week. It is not a full Dragon Medical replacement for teams that rely on Dragon-specific clinical NLP, macros, or enterprise administration.
Can I dictate directly into my EHR?
StarWhisper works with many applications that accept typed or pasted text, including common browser-based and desktop EHR workflows. Test your specific EHR before using it for real notes.
Does it recognize medical terminology?
StarWhisper uses OpenAI Whisper. It can handle many drug names, anatomical terms, diagnoses, and procedure descriptions, but accuracy depends on model, microphone, accent, noise, and terminology. Always review clinical output.
