Notation
Real-time AI clinical notes for physical therapists
Last verified:
What is Notation?
FOWND is an AI documentation tool built for physical therapists, starting with its Notation product. It focuses on creating live, compliant SOAP notes during patient sessions so clinicians spend less time on administrative work and more time on care. The site positions it as clinician-in-the-loop software, which suggests the therapist stays involved in review and control rather than handing documentation fully over to automation.
The main value proposition is real-time clinical note generation tailored to PT workflows. Based on the site, Notation is purpose-built for physical therapy rather than a generic healthcare scribe, and it emphasizes accurate documentation that fits the way PT clinicians write evaluations, assessments, and plans. That specialization is a major theme across the site and related pages.
FOWND appears aimed at individual clinicians, PT practices, and clinics that want faster documentation without sacrificing compliance or quality. It is also presented as a broader company building AI tools for physical therapy, with documentation as the first use case. The product messaging suggests it is especially useful for teams trying to reduce charting burden and improve consistency in notes.
The website also hints that FOWND is still in a growth phase, with Notation described as an early offering and future support for related professions like OT and SLP under consideration. That makes it attractive to PT users who want an emerging tool designed around their specialty, but it may not yet have the breadth of a full enterprise documentation suite.
Notation pricing
Pricing model: Freemium
The site indicates a free early-adopter offer for Notation, with a message to start using it for free and secure early adopter pricing before public launch. Public pricing tiers, plan names, and detailed inclusions are not clearly laid out on the main website pages I could verify, so the website currently reads as a waitlist/early-access style offer rather than a fully published pricing page. The product is presented as free to start for early adopters, with later pricing implied but not clearly specified on the accessible site pages.
