The Physician Documentation Burden
As an MD, DO, NP, or PA, you're spending more time on documentation than patient care. Studies show physicians spend 2 hours on EHR work for every 1 hour of patient time. You're charting late into the evening, missing dinners, and burning out. Enterprise AI scribes like Nuance DAX and Suki cost $300-800/month per provider. There's a better way.
Without SOAP Note Buddy
- Hours of after-clinic documentation ("pajama time")
- Enterprise AI scribes cost $300-800/month
- Complex HPI narratives take forever to type
- Copy-forward habits create compliance risks
With SOAP Note Buddy
- Generate complete notes in seconds
- Just $49/month - affordable for any practice
- AI crafts detailed HPI from your key findings
- Each note is uniquely generated per patient

Click Generate
One click generates a complete clinical note - HPI, ROS, physical exam, assessment, and plan - tailored to your patient's presentation and your documentation style.
4
Review & Sign
Review the AI-generated documentation, make any clinical adjustments, and sign. What used to take 10-15 minutes now takes 2-3.

A - Assessment
1. Essential hypertension - Suboptimally controlled. Home and office readings above goal of <130/80 per ACC/AHA guidelines. No evidence of end-organ damage. Orthostatic symptoms reported.
2. Type 2 diabetes mellitus - Improved control, HbA1c decreased from 7.8% to 7.2%. At goal. Renal function stable.
2. Type 2 diabetes mellitus - Improved control, HbA1c decreased from 7.8% to 7.2%. At goal. Renal function stable.
P - Plan
1. Hypertension: Increase lisinopril to 40mg daily. Discussed orthostatic precautions (rise slowly, stay hydrated). Continue home BP monitoring. Recheck BP and BMP in 4 weeks to assess response and monitor potassium/creatinine.
2. Diabetes: Continue metformin 1000mg BID. Reinforced dietary counseling. Continue annual diabetic eye exam and foot checks. Repeat HbA1c in 3 months.
3. Health maintenance: Discussed importance of regular exercise (goal 150 min/week moderate activity). Reviewed medication adherence. RTC 3 months or sooner if BP symptoms worsen.

SOAP Note Buddy vs Enterprise AI Scribes
Enterprise solutions like Nuance DAX, Suki, and Abridge are powerful but expensive. Here's how SOAP Note Buddy compares:
Enterprise Solutions (DAX, Suki, Abridge)
- $300-800/month per provider
- Annual contracts required
- IT department setup needed
- Works best with specific EHR integrations
- Ambient listening (records conversations)
SOAP Note Buddy
- $49/month - save $3,000-9,000/year
- No contracts, cancel anytime
- Install in 2 minutes (Chrome extension)
- Works with ANY browser-based EHR
- Text-based (you provide key details)
The Math is Simple
At $49/month vs $400/month average for enterprise solutions, you save $4,200/year. For a 5-provider practice, that's $21,000/year in savings. SOAP Note Buddy pays for itself if it saves you just 15 minutes per day.

How is this different from Nuance DAX or Suki?
Enterprise AI scribes like DAX and Suki use ambient listening (recording patient conversations) and cost $300-800/month with annual contracts. SOAP Note Buddy is text-based - you provide key clinical details and the AI generates complete documentation. It's $49/month with no contracts, saving you $3,000-9,000/year while still dramatically reducing documentation time.
Is SOAP Note Buddy HIPAA compliant?
Yes. PHI (Protected Health Information) is automatically scrubbed before any data is sent to AI processing. Patient names, DOBs, MRNs, addresses, and other identifiers are removed locally on your device. We offer a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) for practices that require one.
Does it understand medical terminology and specialties?
Yes. The AI understands clinical language including differential diagnoses, lab interpretations, imaging findings, medication management, and specialty-specific terminology. It adapts to primary care, internal medicine, urgent care, and various medical specialties.
How much time will I actually save?
Most physicians report saving 2+ hours per day on documentation. Notes that took 10-15 minutes now take 2-3 minutes. That means finishing charts during clinic hours instead of spending evenings on "pajama time" documentation.

Absolutely. SOAP Note Buddy works for MDs, DOs, NPs, and PAs. The AI adapts to different documentation styles and requirements. Each provider can maintain their own patient context and preferences.
