What's new · August 2026

Letters written from the visit

August generated referral letters from the visit context with a recommended template, let you pick email, fax, or mail per recipient, rolled a new audio engine out to every account, taught Kubo to infer the visit type on its own, and added a privacy mode for shared screens.

August was about the letter writing itself. Kubo already knows what happened in the visit; now it drafts the referral letter from that, recommends the template, and sends each copy the way its recipient wants it.

Letters

Generated from the visit

Letters are drafted from everything Kubo knows about the visit, and Kubo recommends which template to use. An AI-powered template editor with back/forward history and versioning means you can experiment freely. See Letters.

  • New placeholders: implants, appointment start time, office phone, and office fax.
  • Letter template selector that works the same way as the note template selector.

Delivered per recipient

Pick email, fax, or mail for each recipient from a popover. Email one doctor, fax another, all from the same letter.

  • Attach the clinical note to a letter, with a default toggle.
  • CC emails on letters.
  • Your office gets a copy. Finalized letters are automatically sent to your practice’s own email.
  • Signature lines and sign-off for letters, and undo and redo in documents.

Transcribe

A new audio engine

A ground-up rewrite of audio capture, tuned for transcript accuracy and now on for every account. Live dictation runs on the same engine for consistent results. See Transcribe.

Scribe

  • Magic Edit shows its work. See exactly what changed, and undo it if you disagree. See Templates.
  • Radiographic findings get their own section in exam notes.
  • Follow-up notes show surgical-site findings clearly.
  • Multi-specialty plans. The plan section supports more than one specialty in a practice — facial plastics alongside oral surgery, for example.
  • Block templates can call on AI for smart placeholders.
  • BMI is calculated automatically in the medical review form.

Visits

Kubo knows what kind of visit it is

Visit types are inferred from notes, procedure codes, and recent visits, including a backfill of past appointments. And when an appointment isn’t going ahead, Kubo drafts the referral letter for you.

Providers

  • Nurse practitioner provider type.
  • Professional credentials on provider profiles.
  • Provider authorization to finalize. Optionally require a specific provider’s authorization before a letter is finalized.

PMS Sync

  • DentalWare integration in early access. See PMS Sync.

Inventory

  • Product catalog stays current with automatic AccessGUDID sync. See Implants.

Everything else

  • Privacy mode abbreviates patient names on the dashboard for shared screens.
  • Quick actions menu with a hotkey, on web and native apps.
  • Multi-file select and a range of improvements for mobile and native apps.
  • Dictation usage stats so you can see how your team is using dictation.
  • Kiosk forms gain checkboxes, anesthesia provider and designation fields, and autofill for office and emergency phone numbers.
