This tutorial walks through building an ambient AI scribe for telehealth visits in Python. AssemblyAI's Universal-3 Pro model with Medical Mode handles the accuracy requirements of clinical audio, including medications, procedures, and dosages. You'll need Python 3.8 or later, an AssemblyAI API key, and an OpenAI API key to follow along. What is an ambient AI scribe? An ambient AI scribe is software that listens to a patient-provider conversation, transcribes it, and turns it into a structured clinical note—automatically. This means the provider never has to type a single word during or after the visit. It's worth distinguishing from two things it's often confused with: Ambient dictation: The provider actively speaks to a recorder to narrate notes after the visit. An ambient scribe is passive—it listens to the natural conversation as it happens. Human scribes: A person (in the room or remote) manually types notes in real time.
