In our second episode, we’re diving into one of the most talked-about topics in the industry—AI. We chat with Mitch Sigley, Co-Founder and CTO of VetNotes, about how AI scribes are transforming consults, saving time, and giving teams the breathing room they need to focus on what matters most: patient care.
From real-time note-taking to streamlining workflows, this episode is all about practical ways AI is being used right now in vet practices—and what’s coming next.
Key Takeaways
1. Currently AI scribes are the most impactful use of AI for vet practices. These scribes record the conversation between the client and the vet, then transcribe this conversation into text. AI then takes the conversation notes and writes those up for vets.
2. Clinics are saving 5-10 minutes per consult with AI scribes, equating to 45-60 minutes saved per day.
3. When reviewing technology for your practice, consider the data and security measures in place before getting started.

5. There’s a lot more to come in the AI space, tune in for Mitch’s future predictions!
