What a skill is

An editable template that shapes one clinical document.

A skill is written in plain language, in clinical voice. It tells the AI how the document should be shaped — the voice to write in, the structure of the result, the things that have to be included, the things that should never appear. Nothing is hidden behind it. The instructions you read are the instructions the AI follows.

Every AI draft in Praxnote — a session note, a treatment plan, a referral letter, a case conceptualization — comes from one skill. Your practice can copy any skill and change its wording to match how you actually work. If you've made your own version, that's what your clinicians use. If you haven't, the Praxnote default is what they see.

Every change to a skill is recorded. When you edit a skill, the change is saved with the time and the name of who made it. When a clinician generates a draft, the exact version of the skill in effect at that moment is saved alongside the document, so a future supervisor or audit can see what shaped the note.

Whose version your clinicians see

Your practice's version if you've made one. Otherwise the default.

If your practice hasn't customized

Your clinicians use the Praxnote default — written and reviewed by us, available for you to read at any time. Most practices start here.

If your practice has customized

Your version is what your clinicians see. Other practices keep their own. No overlap. No surprise about which version was in effect when.

Walk through a skill, on your modality.

On a walk-through we'll open a real skill, change a piece of it together, and generate a draft from a sample session. You'll leave with a clear sense of how the editing actually works.
