Smarter Technologies

SmarterNotes is a clinical AI tool designed for hospitals and health systems. It creates patient notes — like progress notes, discharge summaries, and care plans — while simultaneously checking that those notes are accurate, complete, and set up to maximize reimbursement. The tool works directly inside the electronic health record (EHR) and aims to reduce the time clinicians spend on paperwork.

The system combines two technologies: SmarterDx's clinical AI, which understands over 10,000 diagnoses and procedures, and Pieces' note-generation engine, which has already produced over 10 million AI-generated clinical documents. SmarterNotes doesn't just transcribe — it spots missing diagnoses or documentation gaps that could affect coding and payment, then prompts the provider to address them before the note is finalized. It also identifies new revenue opportunities, like complications or comorbidities (CC/MCC) that might have been overlooked. The company reports that 36% of encounters contain such opportunities, and that users see a 5:1 ROI from day one.

This tool is built for busy clinicians, revenue cycle teams, and hospital administrators. Physicians who dread late-night "pajama time" documentation will appreciate that SmarterNotes cuts that paperwork by 69-76%. For health systems, the ROI comes from cleaner claims, fewer denials, and faster discharge summaries (10% faster, according to the company). SmarterNotes is most valuable for large hospitals and health systems already using an EHR and looking to connect clinical workflow with financial performance.
