Description
From transcription, clinical note generation, multilingual interpretation, hand-off note creation, and virtual assistant functions, the device is designed to optimise daily routines. By improving documentation, communication, and workflow efficiency, the SpeechMike Ambient enables healthcare professionals to focus more on patient care, reduce burnout, and improve care quality.
The SpeechMike Ambient features four high-performance microphones with active noise cancellation and speaker separation for consistently clear, intelligible audio. Its wearable design keeps the microphones close to the speaker at all times, ensuring greater accuracy in dynamic, noisy clinical environments—far outperforming smartphones or generic microphones.
Different workflows call for different audio setups, and the SpeechMike Ambient is designed to meet those needs. Based on user research, it offers selectable audio modes that range from single-user recording with noise cancellation to conversation scenarios such as real-time interpretation and speaker separation. This flexibility ensures optimal performance across different environments and use cases.
The built-in patented ambient sound intelligence automatically detects individual speakers and creates two distinct audio streams. This results in natural, easy-to-follow playback, making the device ideal for automated documentation, conversation transcription, and protocol generation.
The SpeechMike Ambient is engineered specifically to capture high-fidelity, multi-speaker audio in real-world environments—perfect for AI transcription and ambient scribe scenarios in clinical and virtual assistant functions. Its superior input quality significantly enhances AI model accuracy, making it ideal for generating clinical notes, transcriptions, and real-time documentation.
The SpeechMike Ambient ensures secure data transmission with encrypted Bluetooth LE technology and a secure “Passkey” pairing method. Only one device can connect at a time, preventing external access or interference. Tested for reliable coexistence with Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and other 2.4 GHz devices, the system meets global standards like CE, FCC, and RCM.
The SpeechMike Ambient is fully backwards compatible with existing SpeechMikes, ensuring seamless integration into current workflows while unlocking new opportunities. With its comprehensive software development kit (SDK) and API access, third-party software providers can natively integrate the device into desktop and mobile applications. With full control over button mapping, device settings, and audio input, the SDK enables rapid onboarding for speech recognition platforms, AI tools, and enterprise software ecosystems.
Designed for seamless transitions between mobile and stationary use, the device can be worn with a magnetic clip or neck strap for hands-free operation. It stores up to 10 wireless profiles, automatically connecting to the nearest workstation when moving between patient rooms or work areas, eliminating the need for manual pairing. The docking station enables charging and desktop recording, while the ergonomic, lightweight build with tactile feedback ensures comfort and durability for long shifts.
The energy-efficient design delivers up to 10 hours of continuous recording time, ensuring full-shift battery life in a lightweight body. Users can recharge quickly via the docking station, a standard USB-C cable, or a PC USB port. This ensures reliable uptime and supports the mobile demands of clinical environments.
Built with infection control in mind, the device uses hygienic, medical-grade materials and avoids the contamination risks common with handheld devices. Its smooth, polished surface resists germs and fingerprints while minimising handling noise during operation for clearer audio capture. Compared to smartphones, it also lowers operational costs with fewer updates, simpler maintenance, and no need for mobile device management.
Ambient listening enables clinicians to stay fully engaged with patients without manual documentation or device handling. By capturing relevant information in the background it allows for natural, uninterrupted conversations, fostering trust and improving care quality. This reduces cognitive distractions, ensuring a stronger clinician-patient relationship.
