Frequently Asked Questions
What does Silknote do?
Silknote is a set of AI scribing tools being developed with the intention of significantly improving the efficiency of quality healthcare. We feel the lack of healthcare availability is driven by a lack of efficiency. We strive to provide safe, privacy-focused, ethically implemented software using an evidence-based approach.
The availability of effective artificial intelligence models has changed dramatically over the past few years. We believe that it is vitally important to do our best to further the usage of it in healthcare ethically. To us, it seems inevitable that in the years to come AI will be an almost universal third party to patient interactions driven by the motivations of the different stakeholders in the healthcare system – practitioners who want to provide the best care, organisations who want to improve information collection to mitigate medicolegal risk, and patients who increasingly see these tools used in other disciplines and are already coming to expect the same in healthcare. We want to see that be guided by informed clinical practice, patient autonomy, and ethics – rather than be pushed in by organisational demand.
How can it help me as a healthcare worker?
The main way that Silknote can help you is by saving time in note-taking and document generation. Silknote frees your mental resources to be fully cognisant of the patient and avoid using your limited time for tasks which can easily be automated.
What about privacy?
Recognising the need for a privacy-focused platform was one of our primary motivations. No more than 60 seconds of consultation recording ever exists at any one time. That portion is processed individually in a way which no one is able to hear. Silknote is designed so that only you are able to see the transcription produced. All of the processing is done within Australia and notes produced are stored with multiple levels of AES-256 encryption. We cannot hear the audio, read the transcripts, or see the notes you produce.
We are passionate about information privacy and finding the best ways to implement it.

What do I need to get set up?
Silknote works directly in your browser on your desktop or mobile. Using a webcam microphone rather than an in-built one is advisable however we have had good results from both.
You will need to ensure you have granted the platform access to your audio input.
Set up is very straight forward,
What if I don’t want to record my consults but still want to use Silknote to structure my notes?
In some situations transcribing a consult has the potential impact on therapeutic rapport. We have users in this position who still love Silknote Form as it saves them time when it comes to note formatting and other documentation. With Silknote Form, users have access to the full text processing capabilities of the platform.
