  ### Simplified recording mode — removed consultation & dictation toggle

  The mode selection between consultation and dictation has been removed from the recording flow. The interface is now cleaner and less ambiguous for doctors starting a session.

  **Type:** Improvement  ·  **Surface:** Web

  ***

  ### Consistent structured output — LLM prompt improvements

  The scribe template LLM was occasionally returning raw JSON instead of formatted markdown. Prompts have been tuned so the model consistently returns structured markdown output.

  **Type:** AI / Model

  ***

  ### EkaScribe surfaced across 4 touchpoints in the Eka doctor tool

  EkaScribe entry points are now present on the Rx/Rad screen, sidebar, queue view, and as an end-visit prompt — making it easier for doctors to discover and start a session without switching context.

  ### Post-session audio tips journey for doctors

  ### Android V2 — redesigned app (v1.1.1)

  Full screen-by-screen redesign of the Android EkaScribe app. Key improvements include an output template selection bottom sheet on the home screen, a live session-in-progress screen, redesigned analysing/retry/result/edit and template screens, patient search and add flow, and reusable bottom sheets for language, model, and mode selection.

  ### Transcription shown immediately after session ends

  Raw transcription text is now displayed as soon as recording ends, before the full AI structuring pass completes. Doctors get instant feedback on what was captured rather than waiting with a blank screen.

  **Type:** Feature  ·  **Surface:** Web

  ***

  ### Single-chunk transcript API

  New synchronous API endpoint to retrieve a transcript for a single audio chunk — no streaming required. Designed for integrations that need low-latency transcript retrieval on a per-chunk basis.

  **Type:** Feature  ·  **Surface:** Web

  ***

  ### Smart redirect for authenticated users

  Doctors who are already signed in and navigate to login.eka.care or accounts.eka.care are now automatically redirected to their destination, skipping the redundant login screen.

  **Type:** Improvement  ·  **Surface:** Web

  ***

  ### Website 2.0 — structured output, inline editing & chatbot

  Major overhaul of ekascribe.ai. Structured clinical note output (V2DD format) is now rendered in the UI with section-level editing, medicine codification with inline edits, a task-section panel for note refinement, and an integrated chatbot interface for post-session note adjustment. Create Template is also now available on mobile web.

  ### Extension floating panel — rebuilt as inline page overlay

  The Chrome extension has been moved off Chrome's side panel and now renders as a content-script overlay directly inside the active tab. Doctors can record, view results, and edit clinical notes without leaving their EMR page. The panel supports word-document-style editing, enforces a single instance across tabs (with a "take me there" prompt if already open), shows a confirmation when closing mid-recording, and is fully removed from the DOM on close.

  **Type:** Feature  ·  Improvement

  ***

  ### Extension — paste overlay toggle in settings

  Doctors using EkaScribe alongside third-party EMRs (HealthPlix, Tatwacare, etc.) can now enable or disable the Eka paste icon overlay from extension settings. The overlay is automatically suppressed on Eka's own EMR to prevent input field interference.

  **Type:** Feature  ·  Improvement

  ***

  ### Extension onboarding flow for first-time users

  New users landing on the extension for the first time now see a guided onboarding flow — previously the initial state was blank and confusing.

  **Type:** Improvement

  ***

  ### Past sessions list capped at 25

  The extension was crashing for high-volume doctors with a large session history. Past sessions are now limited to the 25 most recent, resolving the breakage.

  **Type:** Improvement  ·  Bug fix

  ***

  ### Website — mobile-responsive layout

  scribe.eka.care was not usable on mobile viewports. The UI has been fully refactored to be responsive across screen sizes.

  **Type:** Improvement  ·  **Surface:** Web

  ***

  ### Extension UI revamp — updated branding & label clarity

  First visual refresh of the Chrome extension. "Output language" relabelled to "Transcription language" for clarity. Updated EkaScribe logo, dynamic microphone permission handling, and graceful Cognito token expiry handling all shipped in this update.

  **Type:** Improvement

  ***

  ### VAD microphone detection fixed

  Voice Activity Detection (VAD) was incorrectly registering microphone state in some configurations, causing recording to not start or stop as expected. Fixed.

  **Type:** Bug fix  ·  **Surface:** Web

  ***

  ### Platform discovery page — ekascribe.ai/download

  A new unified page listing all EkaScribe platforms (extension, mobile app, web) so doctors can find and install the right version for their workflow in one place.

  **Type:** Feature  ·  **Surface:** Web
