Sometimes the AI's first draft is close but not quite right — too long, missing differentials, wrong formatting. Instead of retyping, select the text and have Whippet rewrite it.
How to use it
Open a consult and click into the note you want to change — each note has its own tab, named after its template.
Select the text to change, anything from a phrase to a few paragraphs.
In the small toolbar that pops up above the selection, click Rewrite ▾ and pick a rewrite from the menu.
The rewrite streams into a preview box below your original. When it finishes, choose Accept (replace your text with the rewrite), Discard (keep the original untouched), or Regenerate (run the same rewrite again for a different result).
Click Cancel while it's still streaming to stop early — your original stays as-is.
Custom rewrite
The most flexible option: a dialog where you describe the change in your own words. Type your instruction, or click Dictate to speak it; dictated text can be edited before submitting.
Below the text box, one-click suggestion chips cover common requests — click several to combine them:
Remove not mentioned / not examined — strips the filler lines the AI adds when something wasn't discussed.
Add differentials
Make more formal — tightens the clinical register.
Expand abbreviations — spells out shorthand (e.g. "BCS" → "Body Condition Score").
Fix formatting — cleans up heading levels, list consistency, spacing.
Convert to bullet points
Convert to prose
A toggle at the top of the dialog sets the scope: Selection (default) rewrites only the highlighted text; Entire note is useful for whole-note changes like "fix formatting everywhere".
Make succinct
A one-click rewrite that tightens the selection while preserving every clinical fact and the formatting — bullet lists stay bullet lists, headings stay headings.
Undo and saving
If you accept a rewrite and change your mind, Ctrl/Cmd+Z restores the original in one step; discarding or cancelling leaves no trace in your undo history. Nothing is saved until you click Save on the note — Accept only stages the new text in the editor.
If something goes wrong
Rewrite button doesn't appear. Your selection is under 3 words or over about 8,000 characters (roughly 2 pages); adjust it and the button comes back. Single-word edits are better suited to the Replace button next to Rewrite.
"Rewrite failed" toast. Usually a network blip or expired session. Try again; if it persists, refresh the page.
Rewrite stops partway. Click Discard to restore the original, then try again.
Result isn't what you wanted. Click Regenerate for a different version, or Discard and try a different prompt.
What this doesn't do (yet)
Rewrite letters — this works in the notes editor only. Letters and letterhead will get the same feature in a later release.
For fixing the same misheard word across every note automatically, see word replacements on the Memory page. To find your way around the consult page itself, see Viewing and navigating a consult.
