From Conversation to SOAP Note in Minutes

August 2026 · 5 min read

Step 1: Oira listens silently

During the visit, Oira captures the clinical conversation in the background. No buttons, no interruptions — just talk with your patient the way you always have.

Step 2: On-device transcription

The audio is transcribed locally on your device first. Only after that does the structured processing begin, under the privacy controls described on our HIPAA & Security page.

Step 3: The AI structures the encounter

Oira organizes symptoms, findings, and assessments into the familiar SOAP format: Subjective, Objective, Assessment, Plan. It separates what the patient said from what you observed.

Step 4: You review and sign off

You get a professional draft medical history within minutes. Edit anything, approve everything — the note only becomes final when you say so.

Why it matters

The result is documentation that is complete, consistent, and finished before your next patient sits down — without you touching a keyboard during the visit.
