The four tools
Rewrite
Improves the clarity and readability of your note while preserving every clinical fact. The rewritten version uses professional clinical language and better sentence structure without adding or removing any findings.Best for: Polishing quick notes or dictation output into documentation you’re comfortable having in the record.
Check Grammar
Corrects grammar, spelling, and punctuation errors without changing any clinical content. The meaning, terminology, and structure of your note stay exactly the same.Best for: Final proofing before saving — catches typos and grammatical issues while leaving your clinical language untouched.
Shorter
Condenses the note by at least 30% while keeping all clinical facts intact. Removes redundancy, tightens phrasing, and eliminates unnecessary words.Best for: Lengthy dictation output or notes that have grown verbose after multiple edits.
Detailed
Expands shorthand, abbreviations, and terse notes into fuller clinical prose. Where information is genuinely missing (not just abbreviated), the tool uses clear placeholders rather than inventing findings.Best for: Turning quick shorthand notes into complete documentation, or expanding abbreviations for clarity.
How to use them
Write or dictate your note
Enter your clinical note in the textarea — either by typing, dictating with the Speech to Text chip, or after generating a SOAP review.
Click a tool chip
Select one of the four AI tool chips above the textarea: Rewrite, Check Grammar, Shorter, or Detailed.
Review the result
The tool replaces the textarea content in place with the transformed version. Read through the result carefully.
Tool comparison
| Tool | What changes | What stays the same | Use case |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rewrite | Sentence structure, word choice, flow | All clinical facts and findings | Polishing drafts |
| Check Grammar | Spelling, grammar, punctuation | Everything else including structure | Final proofing |
| Shorter | Length (30%+ reduction), redundancy | All clinical facts | Trimming verbose notes |
| Detailed | Abbreviations expanded, prose fuller | Existing facts (placeholders for gaps) | Completing shorthand |
Rate limit
All four tools share the same 15 generations per day rate limit as every other Ruby feature. Using “Rewrite” on a note consumes 1 generation, the same as a SOAP review or a patient brief. Routine page loads don’t count — only an explicit Refresh or Generate does.The Speech to Text chip (the fifth chip in the toolbar) triggers the voice recorder and does not consume an AI generation. Only the four editing tools count toward your rate limit.
Tips for effective use
Chain tools strategically
You can use multiple tools in sequence — for example, Rewrite first to clean up structure, then Shorter to condense. Each use counts as one generation, so plan accordingly.
Use Check Grammar last
Run grammar check as your final step. It preserves everything about your note except mechanical errors, making it the ideal finishing touch.
Detailed for handoff notes
If you write quick shorthand during a procedure, use Detailed afterward to expand it into notes that other team members can easily read.
Shorter for dictation cleanup
Voice dictation often produces wordy output. Run Shorter to get a tighter version without losing any clinical facts.
