Session Prep
A calmer start to every session
Augustun gives you a clear overview of what matters most before you begin — so you can enter feeling centered, prepared, and ready to focus on the patient.
Definition
Pre-charting that pulls itself together from your prior notes.
Session prep — or pre-charting — is the work clinicians do before a visit to surface what matters: open follow-ups, last session's plan, recurring themes, medication mentions. Augustun automates it by pulling longitudinal context from your prior Augustun notes into one concise pre-visit summary at the top of the chart, so you walk into the visit already oriented.

Why Augustun
Augustun vs prepping by hand
Most clinicians still chart-prep manually — scrolling old notes, hunting follow-ups, and rebuilding context every visit. Augustun closes that loop automatically.

FAQ
Session Prep questions, answered
What is AI pre-charting, and how is it different from chart review?
Pre-charting (or session prep) is the work of reviewing a patient's chart before the visit so you walk in oriented. AI pre-charting automates that review by surfacing follow-ups, last visit's plan, and recurring themes — so you stop manually scrolling old notes.
Where does Augustun pull session-prep context from?
From your prior Augustun notes for that patient. The more visits you document with Augustun, the richer the longitudinal context — open goals, follow-up items, themes, medication mentions — all carry forward automatically.
Does session prep work for telehealth visits?
Yes. The same pre-visit summary, follow-up highlights, and longitudinal context view works for in-person and telehealth encounters — and it's already aligned with the post-visit note Augustun will write.
Which specialties are supported?
Therapy, psychiatry, primary care, cardiology, dermatology, and other specialties Augustun's AI scribe covers. Prep adapts to the documentation style of the specialty.
Is session prep included in every plan?
Yes. Session prep is part of the same platform that writes your notes — there's no separate add-on, no per-prep fee, and no integration to configure.
Is patient data secure during prep?
Yes. Augustun is HIPAA + GDPR compliant. Session recordings are not stored, and PHI is never used to train AI models.
