By default, the output is generated in the classic SOAP note format. However, you can fully customise this in the settings. For more information, read this article.

You can still add or delete notes from the generated output simply by typing or removing text.

You can also reactivate the record button and speak to the system again; the agent will automatically add your additional information to the notes.

What do you receive?
