Chat to Me

An audiology AI assistant that behaves more like a colleague than a search bar.

Why Chat to Me exists

Chat to Me exists because audiology is a discipline where the edge cases are common, the knowledge base moves fast, and the question sometimes arrives mid-consult with a patient in the chair.

Think of it less like a search engine and more like a knowledgeable colleague who specialises in exactly what you are dealing with right now, and who knows the New Zealand context. Not a generic international resource, not a static database. Something you can reason with, in real time, about a real patient.

Questions it was built to handle

The questions it handles span the full clinical spectrum. You might ask: "I have a patient with SSD, socially active, golfs, dines out, anxious in noise, and she will only consider an ITC or CIC. I am thinking about the new Oticon Zeal, any suggestions?" Or: "My patient had a tympanoplasty four weeks ago for a 2 mm perforation. Looks fully healed. Is it safe to run a tymp?"

Or the kind of thing every clinician has experienced but nobody advertises: "I cannot remember what initial presentation level I should use for speech recognition audiometry, WNL to 2 kHz, sloping to severe at 8 kHz." All reasonable questions. All get a reasoned answer.

Grounded in medical audiology

The knowledge behind Chat to Me is grounded in medical audiology, clinical reasoning, device selection, post-procedure safety, assessment protocols, and pharmacology relevant to hearing and balance. It reflects current New Zealand funding pathways and the hearing technology actually available in this market, with relevance for Australian practice as well.

When you ask a follow-up, it remembers the thread, you do not have to re-explain the case from scratch. It holds a conversation rather than fielding isolated queries.

Part of the Shockingly Simple App

Chat to Me complements Magic Notes for clinical note generation and Referral Letters for GP and ENT letters, forming an AI toolkit aimed squarely at audiologists.
