The case is interesting. Writing it up is the problem.
CaseScribe takes your anonymised clinical notes and returns a case report structured to the CARE guideline — abstract free, full manuscript when you want it, referenced from live PubMed and exported to Word and PDF.
What you paste
4 y/o M, prev well, 6/7 fever + rash started trunk -> limbs. Strawberry tongue d4. Conjunctival injection, non-exudative. CRP 148, plt 610. Echo d7: LAD z-score 3.1 IVIG 2g/kg + high dose ASA -> afebrile <24h. Repeat echo wk6 normal.
What comes back
Background
Coronary artery involvement remains the principal cause of morbidity in Kawasaki disease, and early immunoglobulin therapy reduces that risk.1
Case presentation
A previously well 4-year-old boy presented with six days of fever, a descending trunk-to-limb rash, strawberry tongue and non-exudative conjunctival injection.
Conclusion
Echocardiographic dilatation resolved by week six following standard immunoglobulin and aspirin therapy.

Three steps, about four minutes
-
Strip the identifiers
Remove names, numbers, dates and anything else that could point to your patient. The app asks you to confirm before it will accept the text.
-
Read the free abstract
You get a CARE-structured abstract from your notes, at no cost and with no card. If it is not good enough, you stop there and owe nothing.
-
Buy the manuscript
One credit runs a live PubMed search and writes the full paper with Vancouver citations, then hands you a Word file and a PDF.
What the manuscript actually contains
- CARE-guideline structureAbstract, introduction, case presentation, discussion, conclusion, patient perspective and informed consent statement.
- References from real PubMed recordsCitations are retrieved from the NCBI database at the moment of writing, so there is nothing for the model to invent.
- Vancouver numberingSuperscript numbering in the body with a matching reference list, which is what most case report journals ask for.
- Word and PDFAn editable .docx to take into your own revisions, plus a PDF for circulating to co-authors and supervisors.
- Written only from your notesThe model is instructed to state no clinical fact that is not in the text you supplied. Gaps are flagged, not filled.
- An AI-use statement, already draftedEvery export carries ICMJE-style disclosure language you can paste into your submission.
Pay per report, never per month
Credits do not expire and there is no subscription to cancel.
Unlimited CARE-structured abstracts. No card, no trial clock.
Literature search, full referenced paper, Word and PDF export.
$7 each. Sensible if you have a stack of cases from the same rotation.
Anonymise before you paste. This one is not optional.
CaseScribe is built for de-identified text only. Identifiable patient data must never be entered, and the app will ask you to confirm you have removed it before your notes are accepted.
Remove all of this first
- Patient, family and clinician names
- Medical record numbers, national ID and insurance numbers
- Dates of birth and exact admission or procedure dates — use intervals such as “day 6 of illness”
- Hospital, clinic and city names
- Images or files carrying embedded identifiers or metadata
Consent for publication is your responsibility as the author, exactly as it would be without us. CaseScribe is a writing tool. It does not diagnose, does not recommend treatment, and is not a medical device.
Reasonable questions
Will a journal reject a paper written this way?
Most journals do not prohibit AI assistance — they require that it is declared and that no AI is listed as an author. Every export includes disclosure wording for that purpose. You remain the author, and you are responsible for the accuracy of what you submit. Check your target journal's policy before submitting.
Can it invent references?
The manuscript step searches PubMed directly through NCBI and writes from the records it retrieves, rather than from memory. Verify every citation before submission anyway, as you would with any draft.
What happens to my text?
Your notes are sent to the model to generate your report and are not used to train it. Because you anonymise first, no identifiable patient data should reach us at any point. Full detail is in the privacy notice.
Can it write my systematic review or my original research?
No. CaseScribe does one thing: single case reports and short case series. That narrow scope is why the output is usable.
Who is behind it?
A practising paediatric doctor who got tired of watching good cases never get written up. Questions go to hello@casescribe.org and reach a person.
