Hanah for occupational therapists

Occupational therapists choosing an AI scribe want five things. It has to capture function, not just symptoms, write the notes and reports you already produce, be fast without leaving you an editing job, keep what you hear in a client's home private, and cost the same however many visits you do.

Hanah for occupational therapists does all five. Then it keeps working after the note.

Built for a home visit

Occupational therapy often doesn't happen at a desk. It happens in a client's kitchen, beside a shower with no grab rails, or in the car after the visit. What matters is what the person does: self-care, preparing a meal, getting in and out of the shower, the roles that matter to them, and the environment they do it in.

Hanah knows you're an OT from the moment you sign up, and your workspace is set up for occupational therapy from day one. Your notes keep the client's own account of what's hard and record what you observed and assessed, one finding to a line. Anything you didn't assess stays out. You choose the register: shorthand, a standard note, or full prose.

Home visits come with the TV on, a family member joining in, and reception that drops out between rooms. Hanah keeps recording when the connection drops. The audio is saved on your device and uploads when you're back online. If recording in the room isn't practical, dictate after the visit instead.

Your notes, in your format

You start with an initial assessment, a progress note and a discharge summary in SOAP, plus a referral letter. Want headings for occupational performance, the environment and the client's goals? Edit the template.

Then build the documents your work needs: a home safety or assistive technology assessment, a home modification report, an equipment prescription, a functional capacity assessment. If a funder or insurer gives you a form, bring it. Hanah fills your existing Word and PDF templates straight from the session. We walk through the NDIS case in how occupational therapists can use an AI scribe to write NDIS reports.

Fast, and accurate enough to trust

Hanah streams the note onto your screen as it's written, so you're reading before it's finished, and you spend your time reviewing rather than rewriting.

Hanah measures its accuracy in the open. Our standing accuracy and hallucination report publishes the full method, the transcripts and the grading, misses included. Its test recordings include a scripted OT home visit with a television on in the background.

If your practice runs on Cliniko, Halaxy, Nookal or Zanda, Hanah works inside it in your browser and sends the note to the right client record. There's no second app to run the session in and copy the note out of.

Privacy for what you hear in a client's home

On a home visit, a scribe hears the whole household. Hanah treats it that way:

  • Your records stay in your region. Australian, New Zealand and UK practices each run on their own servers, database and storage. Our data processing agreement names every processing step that leaves the country.
  • No training on your sessions. Neither Hanah nor our speech-to-text and AI providers train models on your clinical data. It's written into the same agreement.
  • Audio is deleted automatically. Audio and transcripts are deleted after a short retention window, and every deletion is written to a tamper-evident log. Your clinical note follows your practice's own retention policy.
  • The agreement is in place from day one. Our data processing agreement covers your practice from your first session, so there's no legal back-and-forth before you start.
  • Nothing becomes the record until you sign it. Ahpra expects you to check what an AI scribe writes (Ahpra). Every Hanah draft waits for your review.

Each region's Trust Centre lists every control and subprocessor: Australia, New Zealand and the UK.

One flat price for a week of home visits

Home visits run long. Hanah doesn't charge you for them by the minute.

Hanah's Practice plan is A$100 per practitioner a month, or A$80 billed annually. It's a flat price, not metered by minutes or sessions, and the practice-management integrations are included. Try it free for a month, no card needed.

Hanah keeps working after the note

Most scribes stop at the note. A lot of occupational therapy happens between visits: the new way of getting out of bed, the perching stool in the kitchen, the morning routine the client is rebuilding. So Hanah keeps going.

The same session drafts a care plan your client can read, in three plain-language parts: what you're working on together; the strategies, changes to the home and equipment you recommended, and how each one helps; and what they'll build into their day. Alongside it sits one card for each activity, adaptation or piece of equipment: what to do, when in the day it fits, and which everyday task it makes easier.

After each visit, Hanah suggests new cards from what was said, and none are added until you accept them. Add a card yourself by filming the transfer technique you've just taught. The plan also carries a check-in question for the client, their care team, and the letters and documents you've shared. Nothing reaches your client until you choose to send it.

That's the scribe that stays.
