If you are curious how Quill works in real life, here is the simple, four step flow. The animated graphic below walks through the process visually.
Step 1: The session happens normally.
First, the therapy session takes place exactly as it always has. The client comes in. The therapist and client do their work. Then the client leaves.
There is no recording, no transcription, and no AI involved during the session. Quill has no presence in the room at all. This part matters... so much. The session stays fully human. Nothing else was listening or sending this private conversation elsewhere.
Step 2: The therapist provides a brief summary.
After the session, the therapist sits down and provides a short summary of what felt clinically important during the session, either by recording it or typing it up. They decide what to include. They apply their own judgment. Maybe most importantly, they decide what not to include.
Quill does not listen to sessions and does not infer details. The therapist provides the input directly.
Step 3: Quill turns that summary into a progress note.
Next, Quill takes the therapist's summary and generates a structured progress note. It organizes the thoughts, formats everything properly, and helps turn rough notes into polished documentation. Everything is customizable, so the final note matches the therapist's preferred format and writing style.
Quill is doing the tedious administrative work. The therapist stays in control of the clinical judgment and content.
Step 4: The therapist pastes the note into their EHR.
Finally, the therapist copies the completed note and pastes it into their existing EHR system. Quill does not retain either the summary input or the note output. The EHR remains the keeper of documentation. And so once the note is copied, Quill is done.
So in summary, Quill can help therapists save time writing therapy notes while keeping privacy and ethics intact. No session recordings. No background or "ambient" listening. No AI clinical decisions.
