Frequently Asked Questions About Features

Can I switch between note formats during a session?

Yes. Mental Note AI lets you generate notes in any of the 6 supported formats (SOAP, DAP, BIRP, SIRP, GIRP, PIE) from the same session description. You can generate a SOAP note, then immediately generate a DAP version from the same session information—useful for comparing formats or meeting different requirements.

How does the AI generate clinical notes without storing patient data?

Mental Note AI processes your session description in real-time and generates the note directly in your Word document. No patient information is stored on our servers—the AI processes the input, generates the output, and the data is discarded. Your notes exist only in your local Word document.

What makes Mental Note AI different from voice-based documentation tools?

Unlike voice-based tools that record therapy sessions, Mental Note AI works from your written session descriptions after the session ends. This eliminates privacy concerns about recording client conversations, avoids the need for client consent for recording, and gives you full control over what information is included in the note.

Does Mental Note AI work with my existing EHR system?

Mental Note AI generates notes in Microsoft Word, which you can then copy into any EHR system (SimplePractice, TherapyNotes, ICANotes, etc.). Because it works inside Word—a tool you already use—there's no new software to learn. The generated notes are standard text that can be pasted into any documentation system.

Is the AI trained specifically for mental health documentation?

Yes. Mental Note AI's model is fine-tuned on thousands of professionally-written clinical notes from licensed mental health clinicians (LCSWs, LMFTs, psychologists, psychiatrists). It understands clinical terminology, therapeutic modalities, diagnostic language, and documentation standards specific to mental health practice.
