● In clinical pilot specialty-tuned, podiatry first
The note is written by the time the visit ends.
One tap starts the recording, with the patient's consent captured as its own deliberate act. StethoNote listens, transcribes, and drafts the clinical note with suggested codes. You read every word, change what you want, and sign. Nothing enters the chart unread.

SUBJECTIVE
Established patient returns for follow-up of right plantar fasciitis. Reports marked morning improvement since injection; residual aching by late afternoon. Denies numbness or paresthesia.
OBJECTIVE
Tenderness to palpation at the medial calcaneal tubercle, reduced from prior visit. No erythema or edema. Gait nonantalgic.
ASSESSMENT & PLAN
Improving right plantar fasciitis. Continue stretching protocol and supportive footwear; refill diclofenac 1% gel; re-evaluate in 4 weeks.
A clinic morning, documented as it happens
From the room to the record
Tap once. See the dot.
The phone stays in your pocket or on the counter. Consent is a deliberate, timestamped act before the microphone opens, and the patient's yes is part of the recording itself. Not a checkbox buried in intake paperwork.
The visit becomes a note.
A medical-tuned speech model separates who said what. The draft comes back structured: a full SOAP note, an E/M level reasoned from medical decision-making under the 2021 rules, and ICD-10 suggestions tied to the words that support them.
You stay the author.
Read it, fix it, sign it. A minute or two, not the fifteen you'd have spent typing. What the model proposed and what you signed are kept separately, permanently.
Tuned to one specialty at a time, on purpose.
General-purpose scribes translate every specialty equally, which is to say none of them well. StethoNote learns one specialty deeply — its vocabulary, its visit shapes, its codes — before opening the next. It started inside a working podiatry practice: nail care, plantar fasciitis, diabetic foot checks, injections.
The signed note is yours. It's formatted to paste cleanly into the EHR you already use, and direct integrations are on the roadmap.
The economics matter too. Enterprise scribe tools price for hospital systems. A three-provider practice shouldn't pay hospital-system rates — StethoNote is a flat monthly rate, not per-note metering.
