Write the Note You Need

Every clinician documents differently. That’s why Note Designer gives you the flexibility to create notes that reflect your clinical work, your treatment approach, and your documentation requirements.

Choose from a wide range of progress note formats, including:

• SOAP Notes
• DAP Notes
• BIRP Notes
• PIRP Notes
• GIRP Notes
• SIRP Notes
• PIE Notes
• Basic Progress Notes
• Risk Assessment Notes
• Intake Notes
• Treatment Plans
• Termination and Discharge Notes

Note Designer also includes specialized documentation tools for individual, couples, family, group, addiction, and supervision work.

Documentation That Reflects How You Actually Practice

Clinical documentation shouldn’t force every therapist into the same generic language.

Note Designer includes professionally written clinical content representing more than 25 therapeutic approaches, including CBT, DBT, ACT, EMDR, IFS, Motivational Interviewing, Psychodynamic Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Trauma-Focused Therapy, Attachment-Focused Therapy, MBT, Supportive Therapy, and more.

Select and customize the language that fits the work you actually did.

Use AI If You Want It. And Stay in Control If You Do.

Note Designer includes optional Ethical AI tools to make documentation even more efficient.
Use our AI Auto Note to help transform your own brief clinical input into a polished progress note. Use AI Rewrite when you want help refining something you’ve already written.

But Note Designer is not an AI scribe.

We don’t record your sessions or create transcripts of your clients’ confidential disclosures. You decide what clinical information to provide and what belongs in the record.

Prefer not to use AI at all? You don’t have to. Our original non-AI version, Note Designer Classic, is also available.

Created by Clinicians Who Understand Clinical Documentation

Note Designer wasn’t created because AI suddenly made clinical documentation an attractive technology market.

We’ve been helping mental health professionals write their notes for more than a decade.

Note Designer was developed by experienced mental health professionals with an understanding of both the clinical importance of documentation and the reality of trying to complete notes at the end of a busy clinical day.

Our goal has always been simple: help clinicians spend less time struggling with documentation while preserving their own clinical judgment and voice.
