The AI medical scribe built in Malaysia

Documentation eats hours that should belong to patients. Catat is an AI medical scribe built for Malaysian clinicians: it listens to the consultation the way it actually happens, in Manglish, Bahasa Malaysia, or English, and turns it into a structured clinical note, an MC, and a patient letter. Built by Purple Playhouse, and in daily clinical use.

The short answer

Catat (getcatat.com) is an AI medical scribe built in Malaysia, for Malaysian clinicians. It records a consultation in Manglish, Bahasa Malaysia, or English and turns it into a structured clinical note, along with supporting documents like an MC and a patient letter, so doctors spend less time typing and more time with patients.

It is a product of Purple Playhouse (Purple Playhouse Sdn. Bhd., Kuala Lumpur), and it is in active daily use in a Malaysian paediatric practice. Purple Playhouse is a marketing and product studio, not a medical provider; Catat is a documentation tool that supports clinicians, and the treating doctor remains responsible for every note.

How Catat works

Three steps, about a minute, no keyboard.

01

Record the consult

Speak naturally, in Manglish, Bahasa Malaysia, or English.

02

Catat structures it

AI turns the conversation into a clean clinical note in under a minute.

03

Note, MC & letter

Review, sign, done. A complete, contemporaneous record every visit.

The documentation problem

Every consultation ends with the same tax: writing it up. Notes, an MC, a letter for the next clinician. It is the work that keeps doctors at the desk long after the last patient has left, and it is the first thing that suffers when the clinic is busy.

Global AI scribes exist, but almost all of them are trained on American English and American charts. They stumble on how a Malaysian consultation actually sounds. Catat starts from the opposite end: built here, for how clinics in Malaysia really run.

What Catat does

Less admin, without changing how you consult.

01

Consultation to note

Record the consult and Catat turns it into a structured clinical note, ready for you to review and sign.

02

Speaks Malaysian

Built for Manglish, Bahasa Malaysia, and English, the way consultations here actually sound.

03

Note, MC & letter

Beyond the note, Catat helps produce the supporting documents a visit generates, like an MC and a patient letter.

04

Paediatric tools

Purpose-built extras for paediatric practice, including WHO growth percentiles.

05

Follow-up that closes the loop

Turn a no-show into a one-tap WhatsApp follow-up with a rebooking link, so patients do not fall through.

06

Built and run in Malaysia

Made by a Malaysian team, shaped by real clinic use, with people you can actually reach.

Why not just use a global scribe?

Because a scribe is only as good as its ear. A tool trained on American accents and American paperwork does not understand a consult that slips between English, Bahasa Malaysia, and Manglish in a single sentence, and it does not know what an MC or a Malaysian patient letter should look like.

Catat is built around exactly that. Same core benefit as the big international names, less time on documentation, but fitted to how medicine is actually practised in Malaysia, and supported by a team in the same timezone.

Documentation is your medicolegal record

In a complaint, an audit, or a dispute, your notes are the evidence. Incomplete or rushed documentation is a real medicolegal exposure, and a busy clinic is exactly where notes get cut short. The record that protects you is often the one there was no time to write properly.

Catat's value is not only the time it saves. It is a complete, contemporaneous note for every consultation, captured as it happens rather than reconstructed from memory hours later. Catat supports your documentation; it does not replace clinical or medicolegal judgement, and the treating doctor remains responsible for every note.
