Nigerian doctors, Emmanuel Egberuare and Emmanuel Adetunji, have launched Precision Note, a groundbreaking AI-powered clinical documentation tool designed to reduce doctors’ paperwork and improve patient care.
Unveiled at the 47th International Conference and Annual General Meeting of the Association of Nigerian Private Medical Practitioners in Abeokuta, Precision Note uses artificial intelligence to convert doctor-patient conversations into structured medical notes in real time.
The innovation, its creators say, will allow clinicians to focus more on their patients and less on administrative tasks.
“We built Precision Note after listening closely to what healthcare providers truly need: a faster, smarter, and easier way to document patient interactions,” said Egberuare in a statement. “Our goal is to restore valuable time to clinicians, improve documentation accuracy, and elevate the overall patient experience.”
With the tagline “Chart Smarter, Care Better,” Precision Note uses voice recognition, medical intelligence, and workflow automation to instantly generate accurate clinical notes.
The tool also offers customizable templates for different medical specialties, helping doctors avoid repetitive typing. It integrates directly with existing Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems, eliminating the need for double entry and ensuring data security.

The developers say the tool is compliant with both local and international data privacy standards, including Nigeria’s Data Protection Commission (NDPC) guidelines and the United States’ HIPAA regulation.
According to Adetunji, a medical doctor and co-developer, the app can help doctors complete documentation up to 70 percent faster than traditional methods.
“This means more time for patients and less time staring at a screen,” he said. “By reducing administrative load, we’re also addressing physician burnout, which is a serious concern in today’s healthcare system.”
Beyond saving time, Precision Note is expected to cut costs by reducing errors and minimizing the need for documentation corrections.
It also aims to strengthen the doctor-patient relationship by allowing more meaningful interactions during consultations.
Currently available in Nigeria and other African markets, the platform offers various pricing models, including monthly subscriptions, pay-per-use plans, and enterprise packages for hospitals and health systems.
Looking ahead, the developers plan to add a multilingual feature that will automatically interpret lab and imaging results in local languages, making it easier for patients to understand their health information.
“Precision Note was built by physicians, for physicians,” the co-founders emphasized. “We understand the strain of documentation, our platform transforms workflows so clinicians can prioritize what matters most: their patients.”
