Why Recording-Free Telehealth Documentation Matters
Most AI scribes require you to record patient conversations. This creates problems for telehealth: technical issues with audio capture, patient consent concerns, and awkward "I'm recording this" disclaimers. SOAP Note Buddy takes a different approach - we generate notes from your clinical input, not from recordings.
Recording-Based AI Scribes
- Require patient consent for audio recording
- Technical issues with video call audio capture
- Background noise affects transcription quality
- Privacy concerns with storing session recordings
- Awkward "I'm recording this" conversations
SOAP Note Buddy
- No recording of any kind - ever
- Works seamlessly with any video platform
- No audio quality concerns
- PHI auto-scrubbed before processing
- Natural telehealth sessions, no disclaimers
Zoom, Doxy.me, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, your EHR's built-in video - SOAP Note Buddy works with any platform because we don't need to capture audio. Document the same way regardless of which video tool you use.
How Telehealth Documentation Works
Set Up Your Patient
Before your telehealth session, add the patient's evaluation summary - diagnosis, goals, relevant history. This is stored locally on your device, never on our servers.
Conduct Your Virtual Visit
Focus on your patient during the telehealth session. Take brief notes if needed. No need to worry about recording or transcription - just provide care naturally.
Add Today's Session Notes
After the session, add a quick summary of what you observed and addressed. Key findings, patient response, any changes to status.
Generate Complete Documentation
Open your EHR and click generate. SOAP Note Buddy creates comprehensive, personalized notes based on your patient data and session summary, filling every field automatically.
Features for Telehealth Clinicians
Works With Any Video Platform
Zoom, Doxy.me, Teams, Google Meet, or your EHR's built-in video. Because we don't record, your documentation workflow is the same regardless of platform.
All Disciplines Supported
Physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, mental health, nursing - SOAP Note Buddy adapts to your specialty's documentation requirements.
HIPAA Compliant
PHI is automatically removed before AI processing. Patient names, DOBs, and identifiers never leave your device. We offer a BAA for compliance.
Document Faster
Complete telehealth documentation in 2-3 minutes instead of 15-20. More time for patients, less time typing between sessions.
Telehealth-Specific Language
Notes automatically include appropriate telehealth modifiers - "via synchronous video," patient environment observations, and virtual visit appropriate assessments.
Track Progress Across Sessions
Each note builds on the previous visit. The AI understands your patient's journey and documents progress appropriately for ongoing telehealth care.

Start Your Free TrialTelehealth Documentation FAQ
Does SOAP Note Buddy record my telehealth sessions?
Recording is optional. SOAP Note Buddy offers two approaches: (1) Text-based workflow where you provide clinical context and the AI generates notes without any recording, or (2) Voice recording via our iOS/Android apps if you prefer to capture session details verbally. Unlike competitors that ONLY work with recordings, we give you flexibility - great for telehealth where you may not want to deal with recording consent or audio quality issues.
How is this different from ambient AI scribes?
Ambient AI scribes record your conversation and transcribe it. This creates problems for telehealth: audio capture issues, patient consent requirements, and dependency on audio quality. SOAP Note Buddy generates notes from your clinical data, so it works perfectly for telehealth without any of these complications.
Does it work with Zoom, Doxy.me, and other video platforms?
Yes! Because we don't need to capture audio, SOAP Note Buddy works with any video platform - Zoom, Doxy.me, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, your EHR's built-in video, or any other telehealth solution you use.
Will the notes include telehealth-specific documentation?
Yes. SOAP Note Buddy understands telehealth context and includes appropriate language like "via synchronous video," virtual assessment descriptions, and telehealth-appropriate objective findings.
Is it HIPAA compliant for telehealth?
Yes. PHI is automatically scrubbed before any AI processing. Patient names, DOBs, and other identifiers are removed locally on your device. We're HIPAA compliant and offer a Business Associate Agreement (BAA).
Can I use it for both telehealth and in-person visits?
Absolutely! SOAP Note Buddy works the same way for both. The documentation workflow is identical whether you're seeing patients via video or in person.
What if my internet connection is unstable during telehealth?
Since SOAP Note Buddy doesn't record your session, internet stability during the visit doesn't affect your documentation. As long as you can access your EHR afterward, you can generate your notes normally.
Is there a free trial?
Yes! 3-day free trial. A credit card is required but you won't be charged if you cancel within 3 days. No pressure, no sales calls.
