Tips before you start:
When installing the Noteless Web Extension, choose Always allow or Allow on this site. Then you don't have to approve microphone permission every time you start a consultation.
You will be guided through auto-filling the note the first time you do it. If you want to change the autofilling, you will find Change autofill behind the three dot menu next to the autofill button.
The Noteless Web Extension allows you to use Noteless directly in your browser, for example during a video consultation or while working in a web-based electronic health record (EHR) system. The extension transcribes the conversation and generates a completed clinical note that you can copy or automatically insert into your EHR system.

When the consultation is finished, click Generate Note. Noteless will create a structured clinical note based on the conversation.

When Auto Fill is supported, Noteless will automatically enter the text into the appropriate field.
