### "Using Talkatoo for daily dictation"

March 22, 2021

4.0

Great - I honestly wouldn't have splurged on a dictation device before, as I'm not a radiologist reading out reports. That said, it converted me for routine emails and blogs. The speed with which I can dictate an email is much faster, and now typing out a long email without Talkatoo seems tedious.

Pros

I recently got to try out Talkatoo, and was generally pleased with how easy it was to install and use. While I know this is directed for veterinary professionals when it comes to helping with completion of electronic medical records, I honestly don't use it for this. Most of our EMR are so templated, I didn't find myself using it for that as much as for client communication documentation and discharges. That said, I use Talkatoo WAY more for day-to-day emails and for articles, blogs, book chapters, etc. I like how you can add "MY WORDS" to make the software recognize particular wording.

Cons

I had some initial IT problems when I installed the Philips Precision Microphone with my sound on my iMac (for input and output), especially when I was using my Airpods, Blue Yeti mic, but was able to resolve this with their great customer support. Talkatoo's customer service was AMAZING!

### "Talkatoo Review"

July 20, 2025

3.0

Goods and bags. A lot of editing post note creation, however, love ease of access and creation of notes for us

Pros

I did my the setup and the ease of access. Being able to have talkative make my soap a lot easier was nice as well as the fact is it creates less work for my technicians to actually input that information. Definitely can always remember parts of the conversation a lot easier based on whatever is heard in the rooms and the ability to have it or cross all computers and devices in the clinic has been really nice

Cons

Syncing across devices Correction of misheard words Occasional times of non-medical terminology or descriptions being placed into the soap notes that make it sound less professional

### "Best investment for your DVM's."

January 20, 2026

5.0

Its been wonderful and has saved my dvm's time trying to complete there medical records. This an amazing app where it can be tailored to each individual.

Pros

The Transcription accuracy is amazing and and filters out all the unnecessary conversations. Also you can go back and listen to the recordings.

Cons

The amount of money depending on the number of doctors. Would love to see a feature where practice managers can use is for meetings.

### "Paulhamus Veterinary Associates Review"

July 19, 2025

4.0

So far excellent. I think in a brick and mortar setting into can be either further utilized for all features.

Pros

Ability to quickly enter medical notes/records. Easy in an ambulatory setting and notes are completed.

Cons

Once a note is submitted, I cannot go back and edit the summary before copying and pasting into ezyVet.

### "Helpful in any ER!!"

July 20, 2025

5.0

Overall I would recommend to any busy vet. The fact that it can turn a conversation with a client into a history is amazing.

Pros

Ease of use and saves so much time in our ER. Owners don’t shy away from being recorded. Very smart technology.

Cons

Sometimes have to change some of the wording. Minor grammatical errors when converting to a history.

### "Talkatoo Review"

February 13, 2026

4.0

It has been good and a helpful tool in our practice. Talkatoo has an excellent support staff to help us with any technical questions or issues that may arise.

Pros

It is nice to be able fill out the patient record immediately after the appointment with just a few minutes of transcribing to the App. The notes are stored in the inbox until we have time to input them. Then, it only takes a few seconds for the staff or myself to proofread and insert into our practice software. It is helping us stay current with our written patient records. It is also nice that the custom templates can be as detailed and as long as needed to meet our needs. I also really like the "Call Summary" for our patient communications... that is a huge time saver.

Cons

There was a bit of a learning curve for us. I didn't really know what to expect. We have a strictly equine practice, so we had to make multiple custom templates to meet our needs, but the Talkatoo support staff was very eager to help with that.

### "Talkatoo is a win!"

February 6, 2026

5.0

Excellent training and customer service. I love Jamie’s training videos. Sometimes you don’t really know what to ask specifically and he goes over so many things that are helpful.

Pros

Talkatoo saves me so much time but also improves the quality of my medical records. Nothing gets left out and not having to rely on my recall is gold! There are many features beyond that which improve my records and patient care like medical summaries.

Cons

The AI is very good, but you still have to read it and tweak some things, it it define eats doing it all!

### "Great starting place for record writing. "

February 11, 2026

5.0

Overall, I am happy with the experience. I think there is room for improvement both on Talkatoo's side and with user error. However, I think with time it will be much easier.

Pros

It makes record keeping easier, faster, and more accurate. It prevents staff from forgetting important details from the case.

Cons

The difficulty editing files, especially in regards to custom templates and minor repetitive mistakes.

### "Why did I wait so long to get this? 😅"

July 19, 2025

5.0

I love it! Saves a ton of time. Especially when I tend to get in my head and want to make sure I say everything grammatically correct. The med note recording (I use during and summarize after depending on the situation) is great! I get behind a lot as a solo mobile vet and capturing everything on the road is so much easier. I wish I had this when I started.

Pros

When doing notes and emails I can ramble on and it formats everything with only small edits. Plus the subjective portion when recording really helps with my med notes.

Cons

Assessment and Plan sometimes doesn’t format like I want or is repetitive. When I’m talking to client during objective sometimes it adds things that don’t belong in the physical exam.

### "Love Talkatoo!"

May 28, 2025

4.0

I really like using Talkatoo. Sometimes I am busy enough with my appointments that I don't always get to use it during or between as much as I would like, but even if I end up doing a lot of my notes after hours, it speeds the process.

Pros

I like the fact that I can dictate my notes rather than having to type them, and that even brief notes can be reformatted into a more intelligible form via AI.

Cons

Sometimes it seems to have trouble learning or spelling some of the words that I use-typically drug names or uncommon conditions. This has seemed to improve somewhat overtime, as I'm sure it will continue to do; more of an observation than an actual complaint at this time.

### "Talkatoo is Terrific "

April 30, 2025

5.0

great product, I recommend to all my colleagues. there was definitely a learning curve but easily brought into everyday exams.

Pros

the time saved and accuracy of the note taking, it has taken a lot of stress off of the end of the day. More time can be dedicated to clients

Cons

language barrier with accents, there have been a couple appointments with foreign owners who are difficult to understand for myself, so I don't hold the app accountable. but I think it would be a great idea to have the app even understand or translate other languages

### "Talkatoo app"

July 21, 2025

5.0

Very good conversation, concise, and informative without overwhelming information. Very outgoing personality and easy to talk to.

Pros

Talkatoo app call scribe. I was unaware of this feature and I am excited to try it when I get back to work.

Cons

I don’t not have any point that I did not like about the conversation. It was overall a positive interaction.

### "great job! Keep up the good work!"

January 17, 2026

5.0

better than competition Since signing up, there hasn't been a need to use their support at all yet.

Pros

The AI transcription is superior to the competition and highly recommended to friends. It's considered much better than Easy Vet AI summaries, which has a lot of catching up to do.

Cons

currently putting everything in future tense but this just started recently and they are helping me fix it

April 1, 2025

It has dramatically decreased my time writing up medical notes and call backs.

Pros

Call back with clients. AI generates precise summary of conversation in seconds, allowing me to move onto next medical record quickly.

Cons

My phone dying during the day due to using it all day at work.

### "Time saver/Memory saver"

April 1, 2025

5.0

I was a little leary of recording everything at first, but have found it to be a big time saver. The company is constantly improving their product, so something that didn't work so well previously gets updated and works better very quickly.

Pros

It is a real time saver, capturing the entirely of the exam and not relying on my memory of what all was discussed with the client/recommendations/etc.

Cons

Right now, the multipet note is not quite where I would want it - it doesn't produce a full SOAP for each patient.

### "Personal assistant in my pocket "

January 25, 2025

5.0

Overall this product has improved my day to day life drastically.

Pros

This product has changed my record keeping life. My records are more complete and thorough then they ever have been before and I am spending less time writing them. My favorite aspect is having them recorded to use as a refresher even if writing them a day or 2 in the future I can look at the transcripts in order to key my memory as to what happened.

Cons

Some times when I press record it acts like I pressed finish and I have to close the app and reopen it. When that happens it has a 0 second recording to delete.

### "Thank God for Talkatoo!"

July 19, 2025

5.0

It has been exceedingly helpful and a big time saver. Since my injury I have used it almost exclusively to write my notes and it has kept the practice on track

Pros

It has saved my life since I broke my wrist! I don’t have the mobility in my wrist to type quickly so it has saved me tons of time.

Cons

Sometimes it glitches and doesn’t do what I ask. Occasionally it interprets things that the \[sensitive content hidden\] says as fact when they aren’t

### "Talkatoo Review"

March 4, 2025

5.0

It has been an absolute game-changer for myself and my clinic. It saves so much time and increases the quality of medical records which makes rechecks, transferring cases, and referrals so much better and simpler. I do not think I could go back to not having it, it has completely spoiled me now. I love the various formats and options, the equine soap also does such a good job for large animal cases.

Pros

It makes me so much more efficient in clinic. The notes are well summarized and well written, usually better than I could write myself.

Cons

It often does not use proper medical terminology for things and instead uses the lay-person terms. For example it will write " ear infection" instead of otitis externa. Sometimes the upload speed is quite slow too

June 2, 2025

5.0

Pros

I love how much time it saves me on a daily basis. I am able to get off work on time instead of spending hours working on notes after work.

Cons

There were some minor technical difficulties that have since been addressed. Once I got used to the app I was able to fit it easily into my routine.

March 3, 2025

4.0

Talkatoo has gotten so much better over the coarse of the last 8 months. They have really listened to the veterinarians using it and made updates to better suit our needs. I practiced 18 years without something like this, and now I will never practice without it again!

Pros

I like the ease of use, the time saved writing medical records, and the great training and support from the Talkatoo team!

Cons

I can't figure out how to get it to summarize something that I dictate - something that doesn't need to be in SOAP format.
