A shift in the creation and management of medical documentation is underway due to a rise in clinical trials, greater regulatory intricacies, and the swift integration of AI in the life sciences industry. A study by SNS Insider revealed that the global market for AI in Medical Writing reached USD 869.05 million in 2024 and is projected to hit USD 2.24 billion by 2032, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.58% from 2025 to 2032. This surge is attributed to the escalating number of clinical trials, regulatory paperwork, and the digital makeover in pharmaceutical manufacturing and biotech research.

Cutting-edge technologies like natural language processing (NLP), machine learning (ML), and generative AI are transforming how clinical study reports, regulatory submissions, and scientific documents are crafted, reviewed, and presented. These AI tools are addressing crucial challenges such as the scarcity of proficient medical writers, document complexities, and the need for real-time compliance checks. Generative AI is being harnessed for automating story development, predictive data analysis for verification purposes, and establishing AI-based compliance frameworks compliant with standards like ICH E3 and FDA eCTD.

As of 2024, the pharmaceutical sector held a market share of 33.37%, given the extensive regulatory paperwork, labeling requirements, and scientific publications involved at each stage of drug development. The Asia-Pacific region contributed around 30.47% to the global revenue in 2024 and emerged as a prominent market due to surging clinical trials, Western pharmaceutical firms’ outsourcing activities, and widespread adoption of AI-driven writing tools.

Recent advancements include Indegene’s generative AI platform for regulatory writing and Parexel’s introduction of an AI solution automating patient narratives and clinical reporting. The AI in Medical Writing market is poised for substantial expansion owing to the mounting complexity of clinical trials and upsurge in regulatory submissions.
