Voice Control

Company Summary

Under the name Vitec, we have been providing speech recognition software to orthopedics since 1998. Another division of Vitec has been providing bone screening products since 1983. As a result, we have become the industry leader in providing speech recognition solutions for dictation.

Voice Control, Inc is a new company start-up, intending to acquire Vitec. We will have a dedicated beta site in Beavercreek, Ohio. The medical practice known as Springfield Surgery Center will perform beta site testing of our software. Michael Begal, MD is currently using speech recognition technology to capture his patient exams in “real time.”  Dr. Begal has provided consulting services to our speech recognition software efforts since 1998. There are seven physicians currently practicing at Springfield Surgery Center.

We have a partnership with WWBB (a 25 percent equity partner), a proven leader in database software and speech recognition development. We believe the union of this cutting edge software development, combined with our in-depth knowledge of the medical market and speech recognition, will provide an optimum product and delivery system.
