What is Quill? Thanks for asking. We help therapists with their documentation, including writing therapy notes with AI and more, done in a responsible and ethical way. We are committed to privacy, and no AI, recording, or transcribing happens during the therapy session. We're a husband and wife team, and we stumbled upon the need for a conference directory when looking for conferences to sponsor!
