Finish SOAP notes in minutes — on your iPhone and iPad. Now with Penny — your AI assistant in every note. Edit any note just by asking, see exactly what changed, and undo with one tap. Built for real clinical workflows SOAPNoteAI is your AI medical scribe for SOAP notes. - Four ways to capture: one-tap Audio Dictation, Session Recording (in-person / speaker mode), Text Note (type or paste from phone calls, quick encounters, or handwritten notes), or Upload a File — turn a pre-recorded audio file you already have into a note. - Instant AI draft: turn audio, an uploaded file, or text into a complete SOAP note, organized by S/O/A/P. - Edit & finalize in-app: revise text, add details, restore an earlier version, and copy into your EHR. - Specialty-specific setup: pick Mental Health, Nurse Practitioners, PT, OT, SLP, Chiropractic, Veterinary, Podiatry — plus physician specialties like Primary Care, Internal Medicine, Cardiology, Dermatology, Pediatrics, Emergency Medicine, Urgent Care, and Pain Management. New specialties are added regularly. - HIPAA-aligned safeguards: optional BAA you can sign right in the app; follow your org's consent policies. Meet Penny — your AI assistant in every note (new, free in early access) - Edit by asking: tell Penny what to change in plain language. It updates the right S/O/A/P sections and shows exactly what changed — with one-tap Undo on every edit. - Dictate edits by voice: speak your changes instead of typing. - One-tap commands: shorten a note, add clinical rationale, check the note for completeness, or draft a referral letter, treatment plan, or progress report (commands vary by specialty). - Export when ready: prepare and download the finished note as Word, plain text, or Markdown. - Every Penny draft is yours to review and finalize. Why clinicians choose SOAPNoteAI - Trusted by 1,000+ providers for convenience and ease. - No more manual note taking. - Designed to reduce note burden and save time. - Support for multiple specialties or generate any SOAP note. - New: refine and finish notes just by asking Penny — cut charting time even further. Compliance & privacy - Designed for HIPAA-aligned use; sign your BAA in-app with your organization. - Your data is never used to train AI models. - Audio recordings are deleted within 24–48 hours. - Generated notes remain accessible for up to 30 days; Penny conversations auto-delete after 30 days. - Penny is an AI assistant that helps you draft and refine notes — not a licensed clinician, and not a substitute for your clinical judgment. - Not a medical device.
