Clinical Documentation
Without Data Exposure
Patient data belongs on your device, not on a remote server. Airgap Voice processes all speech locally, eliminating the primary vector for HIPAA violations in clinical transcription.
The Challenge
Every time a clinician dictates a patient note into a cloud-based transcription service, protected health information leaves the controlled environment. The audio is transmitted to remote servers, decoded by third-party infrastructure, and stored in systems outside the healthcare organization’s direct control. Even with Business Associate Agreements in place, the data has left the building.
HIPAA does not require that PHI never be shared with vendors. It does require that every disclosure be accounted for, every vendor be vetted, and every transmission be secured. Local processing eliminates this entire category of compliance overhead by ensuring that patient audio never leaves the device in the first place.
Use Cases
Clinical Notes
Dictate SOAP notes, progress reports, and discharge summaries directly into your EHR. Patient names, diagnoses, and treatment details never leave your workstation.
Surgical Documentation
Record operative notes and procedure summaries immediately after surgery. Accurate transcription while details are fresh, with zero network transmission of patient data.
Research and Case Reports
Dictate case studies, research observations, and institutional review board documentation containing identifiable patient information without involving any external processor.
HIPAA Alignment by Architecture
Airgap Voice does not transmit, store, or process PHI on any external system. There is no cloud server, no third-party processor, and no Business Associate Agreement required. The application runs in a macOS sandbox without network entitlements. Compliance is enforced by the operating system, not by policy.
No Forensic Footprint
Audio is processed in volatile memory and never written to disk. When the dictation session ends, the audio data is gone. There are no cached recordings, no transcription logs, and no temporary files to manage or audit.
