The model cuts clinical word error rates by 35% compared to base Scribe v2 and is available via API starting at $0.22 per hour.
- Achieved the lowest overall WER on the MedDictate clinical dictation benchmark across English, French, and German.
- Scored lower WER and CER than published leaderboard results on the 3,619-sample Eka Medical ASR benchmark.
- Maintains a 5.3% WER on 6,000 non-medical audio samples from Common Voice, matching base Scribe v2.
