Talkatoo
: How to use it, features, and the business problems it solves

How to Use

1. Set up the app or desktop software

   Install the desktop version on your Mac or Windows PC, or set up the mobile app. You can start with a 30-day free trial right away.

2. Record the appointment conversation

   Talk naturally with the pet owner during the appointment. Talkatoo listens to the conversation and begins building the record.

3. AI automatically generates the SOAP note

   The Auto Records feature creates a SOAP (Subjective, Objective, Assessment, Plan) medical record automatically — often before the appointment is even over. Veterinary terminology is fully supported.

4. Review and edit

   Use the AI Assistant to generate summaries, dosage instructions, and draft reports (procedure, discharge, dental, imaging, etc.), then make any needed corrections.

5. Enter into your practice management software

   Use Desktop Dictation to type directly into your current practice management system (PMS) or email. Phone calls can be summarized with Call Summary.
