How do I change the input language?

  1. Locate the option in the consult page and click into it.

  2. Choose from the available languages in the drop down menu by scrolling or using the search bar.

  3. Begin your consult and conduct it as you normally would. Once you are done, Lyrebird will transcribe your notes into English. The transcript itself will generate in a separate tab in your selected input language so you have it available as an easy reference for review!

Soon, you'll also be able to choose your preferred output language, allowing Lyrebird to transcribe your notes into any language you desire!

Tips for Best Results

  • Language Auto-detect is currently unavailable, so always take care to ensure the correct language is selected before you begin your consultation.

  • Selecting the correct input language ensures Lyrebird generates a detailed, accurate clinical note.

  • Translation currently works best when a single language is used during a consultation, so if you will be switching between languages, we recommend taking care to thoroughly review the notes to ensure everything was captured.
