Use Cases

Who Uses Musely Clinical Notes AI Generator

Licensed Therapist

Write SOAP notes in minutes instead of hours

I see 6 clients a day and used to spend 20 minutes writing notes after each session. Musely's SOAP preset captures Subjective and Objective sections from the recording, then generates Assessment and Plan based on the interventions I used. I review and finalize in about 5 minutes per client.

School Counselor

Document student sessions with DAP format

The DAP format works well for my student sessions — Data combines what the student said and what I observed, then Assessment and Plan stay concise. Speaker diarization labels me as Clinician and the student as Client, which keeps the documentation clean. I process 4-5 sessions per day.

Group Therapy Facilitator

Track interventions and responses across group members

Running a group of 8 participants, I need to document each person's contributions and responses. The GIRP preset with Group Session type tracks Goals addressed, Interventions I used, each member's Response, and the Plan. Speaker diarization labels Client 1 through Client 8 so I can attribute responses correctly.

Psychiatrist

Generate intake assessment notes from first consultations

Intake sessions are documentation-heavy — history, presenting problems, mental status observations, and initial treatment planning. Setting Session Type to Intake/Assessment gives Musely the context to organize everything appropriately. The treatment recommendations feature suggests evidence-informed follow-up actions I can review.

Clinical Supervisor

Document supervision sessions for licensure requirements

Supervision documentation needs to capture the supervisee's case presentation, my feedback, and the training objectives discussed. The Supervision session type with Free-Form Summary format gives me a narrative record that meets licensure documentation requirements. Custom Terminology handles modality-specific terms like EMDR and DBT accurately.

Bilingual Clinician

Transcribe sessions conducted in Spanish or other languages

Half my caseload speaks Spanish. Musely transcribes Spanish sessions at the same 97.3% accuracy and structures the notes in English SOAP format. The 34-language support means I can serve clients in their preferred language without switching documentation tools. Custom Vocabulary handles culturally specific terms.

What Clinicians Say

4.7/5 based on 3,150 reviews

★★★★★

I switched from writing SOAP notes by hand after every session. Musely captures the Subjective section from what my clients say and the Objective section from my observations mentioned during the session. I review and edit in about 5 minutes. With 28 clients a week, that saves me roughly 7 hours.

The GIRP format is exactly what our agency requires. Musely connects session content to treatment goals, documents every intervention by name, and tracks client responses. Adding CBT, DBT, and our specific assessment tools to Custom Terminology means the notes use correct clinical language.

Speaker diarization works well for individual sessions — it correctly identifies clinician vs. client about 95% of the time. Couples sessions with 3 speakers are a bit trickier, but adding names to Custom Vocabulary improved accuracy noticeably. The DAP format output is cleaner than what I used to write myself.
