Ambient AI Documentation for Outpatient Clinicians

The visit ends.
The note is already written.

Charthalo listens to the encounter and drafts the full SOAP note — HPI, assessment, and plan — before you close the exam room door. No dictation. No templates. No 9pm inbox.

How It Works

Three steps. No new habits required.

Charthalo runs in a browser tab alongside your existing EHR. No hardware, no dictation workflow, no IT department required to start.

1

Open a tab. Listening starts.

At visit start, open Charthalo and grant microphone access once. Audio is streamed through an encrypted pipeline. No push-to-talk, no trigger phrase. Patient consent is confirmed before capture begins.

2

HPI, ROS, Assessment & Plan — structured in real time

While you're still with the patient, Charthalo parses the transcript into SOAP sections: chief complaint, HPI narrative, review of systems, and a full assessment and plan with appropriate clinical language.

3

Review the draft. Approve. Done.

The note is ready when you close the exam room door. Read it, edit any section, then copy into your EHR. The whole process adds under two minutes. Clinical judgment remains yours throughout.

Sample Note Output

What the finished note looks like

Every note follows SOAP format with distinct S / O / A / P sections. ICD-10 suggestions included in the assessment. Clinical language reflects what was said in the room — not a summary of a summary.

Charthalo produces a draft for your review. You approve, edit, or override before it enters any patient record. The note does not replace clinical judgment.

See the full workflow

For clinicians who chart after hours. For practices that want to stop losing them.

Whether you're a solo physician or running a multi-clinician group practice, the documentation burden looks different from each seat — and so does the solution.

For Clinicians

You trained for years to practice medicine, not to reconstruct encounters from memory at 9pm. Charthalo drafts the SOAP note during the visit so your workday ends when you leave the clinic — not two hours later in your living room.

Physicians, NPs & PAs

For Practices

Burnout-driven turnover is expensive to replace — estimates run $500K–$1M per physician when you include recruitment, credentialing, and ramp time. Charthalo reduces the documentation burden that drives it, without an EHR replacement or IT project.

What early-access clinicians say

I was writing 12 to 14 notes at home every night. Now I'm approving Charthalo drafts while the MA rooms the next patient. The HPI sections are genuinely good — I'm not rewriting them, just scanning and signing.

What got me was the assessment and plan. I expected a transcript cleaner — not an actual A&P with ICD suggestions and a structured plan. It's not perfect every visit, but it's close enough that I'm usually approving with light edits.

In urgent care we do 25 to 30 visits a shift. Dictation was never going to work — stopping to dictate breaks the room flow. Charthalo runs in the background and the DAP note is ready before the patient reaches checkout. That's the only workflow that makes sense at that volume.
