Documentation shouldn't take longer than the encounter.
In 2024 my EHR vendor introduced an AI scribe feature. The cost: $300/month/provider. That's $14,400 a year for a tool that transcribes and reformats what I already said — without any clinical reasoning, without evidence, and without a single defensible citation.
I looked at what the market was offering. Generic transcription bolted onto bloated EHR platforms. None of them understood the clinical reasoning behind a plan. None could distinguish a Defensive note from a Quick note. None could connect a literature search to a chart entry. And every one of them generated citations that didn't exist when they tried.
So I built Sorted — documentation that starts with what the clinician actually said, generates structured output calibrated to the clinical scenario, and never infers what wasn't provided. Five voices. One standard. Your reasoning, made explicit.
Fifteen years of clinical practice taught me that the hardest part of a chart note isn't describing what you did. It's capturing why you made the decisions you made. The differential you considered. The alternatives you weighed. The risk factors that guided your plan. That reasoning is obvious in your head during the encounter. It's invisible on the page three years later when someone asks you to prove it. Generic AI can transcribe your words. It can't reconstruct your clinical reasoning — and it will fabricate the citations you'd need to defend it.
Sorted generates documentation that makes the reasoning explicit — from a 30-second Quick note to a Defensive record built to withstand scrutiny. Five clinical voices. One standard. Only what the clinician actually said. No inference. No fabrication.
The tools change. The obligation doesn't.
