Lexacom Echo

Lexacom Digital Dictation

About this app

Lexacom Echo brings professional speech recognition to every app you use.
Echo is a complete keyboard. Switch to it in any text box, whether that's email, messages, a web-based system, a document or a note, and dictate or type.
Built for professionals:
Designed for professionals who need accurate, efficient documentation, the Lexacom Echo keyboard applies your team's vocabulary, substitutions, abbreviations, and formatting rules as you speak, just as they are on desktop.
For healthcare teams, Echo supports NHS-specific vocabulary and clinical language in context. Comprehension modes, including Medical and Patient Mode, can be changed directly from the keyboard.
Optional intelligent proofreading tidies punctuation and capital letters before your dictation is inserted.
You can also build a custom dictionary for names, specialist terminology and local terms, linked to your Lexacom account.
For teams using Patient Shield® or Lexacom Shield, personal details are removed before text is proofread by AI.
A full keyboard:
Echo features swipe typing, a number pad and emoji, as well as autocorrect designed to work with specialist terminology.
Dictation is available for as long as you need it, and Echo can also prevent audio playing on your device, such as a podcast or video, from being picked up with your voice.
Privacy and security:
Speech is processed on Microsoft Azure servers and encrypted in transit. What you type stays on your device. Only your dictation, custom dictionary, and settings are processed by Lexacom services.
There is no advertising or tracking.
Lexacom is Cyber Essentials Plus certified and ISO 27001 accredited, meets the NHS Data Security and Protection Toolkit standards, and complies with UK GDPR.
Get started:
You'll need a Lexacom account with Echo enabled for your team. Sign in with your usual Lexacom details. If you're not sure whether your team has Echo, contact your Lexacom administrator.
The Echo app guides you through switching the keyboard on and allowing the permissions needed for dictation.
Please check dictated text before you save or send it. Echo is a documentation tool: it writes what you say and does not provide professional or clinical advice.
Lexacom has been helping professionals create documentation more efficiently for almost 30 years.
