Zach, thank you so much for joining us today.

Maybe just to kick things off, how would you describe ABRIDGE's mission in, I don't know, a few sentences?

Well said.

That was succinct.

Maybe just rewinding a little bit, where did your interest in the field in machine learning and natural language processing really kick off?

Yeah.

Wow, that's great.

I mean, if we work back on that arc from 2012 to now, what have you seen in your career that have really been the defining moments in your journey as an academic, as a business leader, and really maybe wind up with how you got to a bridge?

Sure.

That's an amazing, that's an amazing origin story.

So then what did you guys decide?

I mean, you make the introduction, you get the introduction to Shiv.

What did you guys first start working on?

I mean, were you kicking around different ideas?

Did you land on what is now a bridge pretty quickly?

That's amazing.

Congratulations.

Please tell me that UPMC was the first or close to the first.

Well, maybe for some of the people who work in health care or don't work in health care, for the layperson, can you just talk about what a scribe does and, you know, the AI scribe versus maybe traditional scribing services that a clinician would use?

Sure.
