Built by a doctor who wanted notes he could trust.
Akoua exists because of two objections that kill every scribe conversation in an Australian tea room: I can't trust what it writes, and I can't trust where the audio goes. Both are fair. A fluent note with an invisible error is worse than no note at all, and "trust us, it's private" is not something you can say to a patient.
So Akoua was built backwards from those objections, by a practising doctor. It flags what it isn't sure it heard instead of guessing. It writes [not stated] instead of something plausible. It grounds every sentence to the transcript, and saves nothing until the clinician confirms it. And its privacy is designed to be demonstrated — your clinical record stored in Sydney, audio deleted the moment you confirm, with a QR receipt the patient keeps.
It's an Australian product in the boring, practical ways: PBS drug names, MBS item hints, RACGP-shaped letters, Australian Privacy Principles, Australian data residency. Made in South Yarra, Victoria.
A flag you check in five seconds beats an error you never see. We'd rather show you a doubt than a wrong note.
Deletion by default, live checks in the room, an append-only audit trail. Claims a sceptic can verify.
Every number we publish carries its qualifier, and we publish our methodology. No logo walls, no invented testimonials.
Judge it by its flags.
