Cortexa Note is an ambient clinical documentation solution built for real clinical workflows. Pair it with the Cortexa Note smart recording device or use the mobile app to capture natural conversations - then let AI handle the rest. Review transcripts, edit structured notes, and finalize documentation in minutes, not hours. Note: Cortexa Note is designed for clinicians and healthcare teams. It is not intended for patient use. Cortexa Note is a documentation tool. Generated output is draft documentation for clinician review. It is not intended to diagnose, monitor, treat, or prevent disease, and it is not a regulated medical device. **RECORD NATURALLY - ZERO DISRUPTION** Capture visit conversations as they happen, with no rigid dictation or workflow interruption.

Fits the workflow you already have. **EVERY DETAIL, ALWAYS ACCESSIBLE** From full transcripts to AI-generated summaries, revisit key moments from any encounter. Search past visits, review important details, and keep your records complete and connected. **RECLAIM YOUR TIME** Clinicians spend 2-3 hours daily on documentation. Cortexa Note helps you finish your notes before you leave the clinic - no more "Pajama Time" writing charts at home. Stay focused on patient care during the day, and be present with your family at night. **WORKS WITH CORTEXA NOTE DEVICE** Pair the app with the Cortexa Note clip-on recorder (25g, 8+ hrs battery, dual MEMS mic array) for professional-grade audio capture designed for the white coat. Or start with the mobile app alone - the choice is yours. **SECURE AND TRUSTED** Built on HIPAA-compliant, SOC 2-audited infrastructure with strong security controls at every layer.
