PenPal AI has two new options when in use:

If there are any changes you wish made to the transcript before the AI processing beings, this can now be performed. A Find/Replace function has also been included to any words that are repeatedly included with incorrect spellings - such as a misinterpreted Client's name, etc.
  • Second, the user can select to either Replace or Amend to the document-in-question. Should the recording replace what is already contained within the document or amend to what is already there? This new options allows you to make that selection.
