Assessments
Validated instruments. Upload-and-score. Routed back to the chart.
Praxnote ships with twenty validated instruments and the infrastructure to add more without code changes. Scores route automatically into the client record. Severity bands and interpretations come from per-instrument scoring rules you can override per practice.
Instruments shipped
Twenty validated instruments out of the box.
Adding more is an assessment-builder change, not an engineering one.

Upload-and-score pipeline
Drop in a file. Get a scored assessment back.
Praxnote's scoring tool accepts PDFs, images, Word, Excel, CSV, and RTF files. It works in stages, with a clinician-grade safety net for plain-text PDFs that don't quite scan cleanly the first time.
- 1
Read the file
Praxnote pulls the answers off whatever you uploaded, no matter the format.
- 2
Find the scoring rules
Each instrument has its own scoring rules. Your practice's customized rules apply first; the Praxnote default fills in if you haven't customized.
- 3
Score it
The AI applies the scoring rules to the answers and produces a result in the form your clinicians expect.
- 4
Cross-check the result
For straightforward "question, then answer" PDFs, a second clinician-grade safety net re-scores the form to make sure the AI got it right.
- 5
Land it on the chart
The scored assessment lands in the client's record, linked back to the file you uploaded. The clinician reviews it from the chart.
Scoring micro-skills
The scoring rules are skills, too.
Every instrument has a dedicated scoring skill: plain text, editable, audit-logged. Practices can override the global scoring skill for their patient population (for example, adjusting severity bands for a specific demographic).
Why this matters
Severity bands aren't universal. A PHQ-9 of 12 means different things in different contexts. Letting practices customize the scoring skill (without changing how scores propagate) lets clinical voice flow through the data.
What you can change
Cutoffs, severity language, interpretation paragraphs, dual-mode (provider vs client) phrasing. Each is a plain-text edit, deployed to your practice only.
See an assessment scored
Bring a PDF. We'll score it on the demo.
Most demos run an upload-and-score on a real (or sanitized) PHQ-9 PDF. You'll see the score, the severity band, and how it lands on the chart.
