The problem & the fix
The patient consultation challenge — how Plaud wearable AI note taker fixes it
The challenge
The patient is talking and your hands are occupied
The moment a consultation begins, a physician's hands and attention belong to the patient, not a notepad or phone. Miss what's said in those first minutes and critical clinical details are gone for good.
Pulling out a phone mid-consultation breaks trust
Unlocking a phone, opening a recording app, and positioning it correctly takes long enough to disrupt the consultation and signal to the patient that you're not fully present, undermining the care relationship.
Raw audio recordings don't become usable clinical notes
Even when a consultation is recorded, hours of unstructured audio still need to be replayed and manually transcribed, adding documentation burden after an already full day of patient care.
Plaud NotePin
Magnetic clip-on capture, zero hands required
Plaud NotePin attaches magnetically to scrubs and starts capturing the moment you press record. No device to hold, no app to manage. Your hands stay free for patient care from the first word to the last.
Invisible to patients, seamless in your routine
Plaud NotePin clips magnetically to scrubs with a slim profile so it stays unobtrusive during a consultation. Patients see the conversation, not a phone or notebook in your hands.
Structured summaries, not raw audio to sort through
Plaud Intelligence instantly generates structured, customised summaries after each consultation, so the end of a shift brings organised clinical notes and to-do lists instead of hours of audio to replay and transcribe manually.

Aleksic_twins x Plaud NotePin
How Aleksic_twins uses Plaud NotePin for patient consultations
Before Plaud NotePin, each patient consultation came with a trade-off: stay fully present, or pause to write. In a day packed with consultations, missing a symptom detail or medication note was an easy way to lose important information.
Now Aleksic_twins attaches Plaud NotePin to scrubs before the first patient and lets it capture the consultation hands-free. Between patients, Ask Plaud turns the recording into searchable notes and a clear to-do list without replaying long audio.
After the shift, the Plaud App delivers structured, encrypted summaries for each consultation, organised by patient. It means less time catching up on documentation and more confidence that nothing important was missed.
"With Ask Plaud, I can turn long conversations into actionable insights, search across past notes, and even generate to-do lists."

The patient consultation workflow checklist
Follow this checklist to integrate Plaud NotePin into your clinical routine for hands-free capture and structured notes.
Before you record
Set up Plaud NotePin and the Plaud App before your first consultation of the day so capture starts the moment the patient begins speaking, with zero delay and zero friction.
- Charge Plaud NotePin fully and confirm the Plaud App is downloaded and paired via Bluetooth
- Set transcription language in the Plaud App to match the consultation language (supports 112 languages)
- Add specialty terms, drug names, and clinic-specific vocabulary as custom vocabulary to improve transcription accuracy
- Confirm your clinic's recording policy and give patients a brief, clear heads-up before the consultation begins
While recording
Attach Plaud NotePin to your scrubs, press record, and stay fully present. Let the device capture every clinical detail while you focus on the patient.
- Attach Plaud NotePin magnetically to your collar or lapel before entering the consultation room
- Start recording with a single press; no need to touch it again until the consultation ends
- Use the Highlight button to mark key moments: a critical symptom, an unusual medication history, or a follow-up action item
- Stay present: resist the urge to write along. The device is capturing everything so you can focus entirely on the patient in front of you
After recording
Open the Plaud App and review the structured consultation summary before moving to the next patient.
- Review the AI-generated structured summary for each consultation, checking for symptoms, medications, and follow-up actions
- Use Ask Plaud to retrieve specific details from the consultation without replaying the audio
- Export or share consultation notes in your preferred format — paste into your clinical system or share with colleagues
- Use the to-do list generated by Ask AI to action any follow-up tasks before the end of the shift
Long-term use
Build a searchable archive of consultation records so every patient detail is retrievable when you need it.
- Label each recording by patient session, date, and consultation type so the archive stays organised across a full clinic schedule
- Use Ask Plaud to search across multiple recordings to retrieve a past symptom description or cross-reference a medication note from a previous visit
- Set up AutoFlow to push consultation summaries automatically to your clinical notes system after each session
- Connect Plaud to external tools via Zapier to integrate consultation notes into your existing clinical workflow

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Questions below focus on using Plaud NotePin in clinical settings, including consent, security, and how consultation notes are generated.
Yes. Plaud NotePin has a microphone with a pickup range of up to 3 m. When you wear it on a collar or lapel, the magnetic clip keeps it close to the sound source, so you can move around during an exam or walk between rooms on rounds and still capture speech clearly without holding a device.
After each consultation, Plaud Intelligence transcribes the full audio and automatically generates structured, customised summaries. Add custom vocabulary in the Plaud App for clinical names, drugs, or specialty terms to improve accuracy. You can also use Ask Plaud to pull specific details out of any recording without replaying the audio.
Yes. It is both good practice and a legal requirement in most jurisdictions to inform patients before recording. A simple line works well: "I use an AI note taker to make sure I don't miss any details from our consultation. Everything is securely encrypted." Local regulations differ, so a quick check of your clinic's policy helps you stay confident.
Yes. Plaud adheres to the highest compliance standards including ISO 27001/27701, GDPR, SOC 2, HIPAA, and EN 18031, meeting the data security expectations of clinical and healthcare environments. If a phone is lost, recordings remain protected behind your account access, helping reduce the risk of accidental exposure.
No. Every Plaud NotePin includes the free Plaud Starter Plan with 300 transcription minutes per month, enough for regular consultation capture. The Plaud Pro Plan and Plaud Unlimited Plan are optional upgrades for clinicians with higher daily consultation volumes who want access to advanced AI features and additional summary templates.
