Documentation shouldn't be the hardest part of therapy
Most therapists spend more time writing about sessions than they do in them. That's a problem worth solving.
Hours lost to notes
Progress notes, treatment plans, session prep — documentation consumes hours that could be spent with patients.
Context fades between sessions
Details from past sessions get lost. Preparing for the next appointment means digging through incomplete records.
Burnout from admin work
Repetitive paperwork is one of the top contributors to therapist burnout. The work that matters most takes the back seat.
From session to notes in three steps
A workflow designed for how therapists actually work — not how software thinks they should.
Capture the session
Paste a transcript, upload an audio file, or record directly in the browser. Illumate works with your preferred workflow.
AI generates your notes
Get structured SOAP, DAP, or BIRP progress notes, a session summary, and suggested focus areas — all in seconds.
Review and export
Edit the AI draft as needed. Export to PDF, copy to clipboard, or use FHIR-compatible format for your EHR system.
Your patients' context,
always at hand
Illumate connects to your full session history. Ask questions in natural language — get analysis, patterns, and treatment insights grounded in real data.
Full client context on demand
Ask about any patient — the AI accesses their complete session history, dynamics, and progress. No more flipping through old notes.
Session prep in seconds
Before your next session, ask for a summary of where you left off, current goals, and key themes. Walk in prepared, not scrambling.
Pattern analysis across sessions
Surface recurring themes, triggers, and behavioral shifts that span weeks or months. See the bigger picture the notes alone might miss.
Cited, verifiable answers
Every response references specific sessions and excerpts. You always know where the insight came from — no hallucinated claims.

Frequently asked questions
Illumate generates SOAP, DAP, and BIRP progress notes from your session content. Each format is fully editable, and you can switch between them for any session.
You can ask the AI questions about a specific patient, a single session, or across multiple sessions. The chat is context-scoped — it only accesses relevant clinical data and cites specific sessions and excerpts in its responses. Off-topic requests are politely declined.
Yes. Sensitive data is encrypted at the column level with AES-256-GCM. Each therapist's data is fully isolated — there is no cross-account access. Audio files are deleted after transcription by default, and all actions are audit-logged.
Absolutely. You can paste a transcript directly, upload an audio file (MP3, M4A, WAV) for automatic transcription, or record the session directly in the browser using local transcription.
No. Illumate is a documentation assistant — it helps you write notes and access patient context. It does not provide diagnoses, treatment recommendations to patients, or replace clinical judgment in any way.
Early access is free. You'll be among the first therapists to use Illumate and help shape the product. No credit card is required to join the waitlist.
