Your rules. Reasons you can see.

Four things sit under every part of Margent: your note rules, a source for every sentence, ways to record, and you.

Your note rules, set once

Formats, required parts and preferred words, for the whole practice or one program. Your clinical lead approves every rule.

Every sentence shows where it came from

Ask why Margent wrote a sentence. See what was said, what the chart says and which rule asked for it.

Why this sentence?
Sentence in the draft

Risk formulated as low-to-moderate acute risk with elevated chronic risk; protective factors present; outpatient level of care remains appropriate with an updated safety plan and means restriction.

0 of 5 revealed

You can see the same reasons for every sentence, code and issue.

  1. A black box gives you a sentence. Ask why, and Margent shows the transcript, chart, policy, template and model behind it.

Record the way you work

In the room, on a telehealth call, in a group, or dictate afterwards. Phone and desktop apps are planned.

In person

Phone, laptop or desktop

Start a session from the schedule. The device's own microphone is enough; no extra hardware.

What happens
  • Two speakers separated
  • Consent captured at start

Every mode produces the same evidence-linked draft and runs the same checks.

Built for client privacy

  • Live audio isn't stored by Margent. Uploaded recordings are deleted within 24 hours.
  • Margent doesn't train AI on your notes.
  • Stored in the US on AWS, encrypted in storage and in transit.
  • We sign a BAA with you before you use real client information.
How we protect client records

We support clinical judgment. We never replace it.

  1. You sign every note. Nothing goes to an EHR or a payer on its own.

  2. If the record doesn't support a sentence, Margent asks you instead of guessing.

  3. Risk language on any channel goes to a person or 988 right away.

  4. Letters, messages and note changes wait for your approval.

  5. You can dismiss an issue with a reason. Every choice is logged.

  6. Practice clients are for training only. AI never diagnoses anyone.

Technical details
  • Speech-to-text is AssemblyAI. Notes, checks and answers use Anthropic's Claude models. Hosting is AWS in the US.
  • AWS and AssemblyAI have signed BAAs with us. Anthropic has not yet, so Margent runs on sample data until it does.
  • A second AI pass checks each sentence against the transcript. Billing codes and many note checks are fixed rules, not AI.
  • If live AI is unavailable or over budget, Margent shows clearly labelled sample output.
  • Every vendor is listed on our subprocessors page. Test results, including misses, are on how we test.

Bring a policy. See it as rules.

In a 30-minute demo we set up note rules from one of your policies and check a sample note against them.
