If you are already using AI in your clinic, or thinking about it, you are not alone. But not all scribes are created equal. From speed to security, here’s why thousands of healthcare professionals across Canada are choosing CareWay.
CareWay was developed in Canada, in collaboration with healthcare professionals, to address the real challenges of clinical documentation. It’s hosted on Canadian infrastructure and built to meet the highest provincial and federal privacy regulations, ensuring your data is always protected.
Physicians can work with peace of mind knowing their data and those of their patients are protected with fortress-level security.
CareWay is now natively integrated with MYLE EMR. Notes are automatically populated in the right sections of the EMR: Reason, History of Present Illness, Exam, Follow-up and Plan, etc.
That means no copy-pasting, no Chrome extensions, and no disconnected workflows.
“During consultations, I finally feel a sense of cognitive rest. I’m no longer multitasking — I’m fully present with my patients, and that changes everything.” — Dr. Picard, Family Physician

Time matters. While some scribe tools can take up to 7 minutes to generate a single note, CareWay delivers high quality medical notes in seconds, every time. In fact, most users report gaining 5 to 7 minutes per patient, and many say they're now able to see one additional patient per hour, without staying late.
💬 CareWay also supports over 99 languages and generates notes fluently in both French and English, ideal for clinics with diverse patient populations.
