  "answer": "Novo Nordisk built NovoScribe, a documentation platform using Claude models on Amazon Bedrock and MongoDB Atlas, to draft clinical study reports, device verification protocols, and patient materials for human review. Anthropic's case study reports documentation time cut from 10+ weeks to 10 minutes, a 95% reduction in resources for device verification protocols, and review cycles cut in half.",
