Speech Processing Solutions (SPS) and ambient AI infrastructure company Corti have formed an alliance for integrating the medical reasoning engine of the latter into the Philips SpeechLive AI Assistant.

The integration uses Corti’s medical AI reasoning engine to turn voice audio into structured notes during patient encounters, aiming to address accuracy, compliance, and clinician workload pressures.

SPS CEO Dr Thomas Brauner said: "Philips SpeechLive has always set the gold standard in our industry. By adding Corti’s API directly into our platform, we're giving our customers the latest capabilities without forcing them to learn new systems or abandon familiar workflows.

“Together, we are redefining how speech empowers healthcare professionals worldwide to free up time for what matters most: the patient."

SPS’s platform combines dictation, speech recognition, ambient AI, workflow automation, and hardware integration in one interface, serving Europe, North America, and other regions.

The SpeechLive AI Assistant now processes conversations up to 35 times faster than general-purpose alternatives.

The system transcribes and structures notes during the consultation, surfaces relevant clinical insights, and supports documentation compliance with GDPR, HIPAA, and MDR regulations.

Corti CEO and co-founder Andreas Cleve said: “Corti is built for the realities of clinical care. Partnering with SPS allows us to bring specialised medical AI infrastructure into the workflows clinicians already rely on.

“Together, we are making healthcare-grade intelligence accessible on every device and in every setting - delivering safer, smarter, and more scalable care.”

The integrated platform is designed to reduce documentation tasks, potentially reclaiming hours per week for clinicians.

The partnership is a response to rising patient volumes, documentation backlogs, and workforce burnout in healthcare systems globally.
