Try it right here. Build a real note in about 12 clicks.

This is a working demo of the actual desktop app. Nothing you click is recorded — just like the real thing. Clicks: 0

1 Objective — Mental Status Exam

Click findings, or mark everything typical in one click. Try selecting “anxious” after “euthymic” — the app won't let a note contradict itself.

2 Screener — PHQ-9 (demo shows 3 of 9 items)

The full PHQ-9, GAD-7, PCL-5, C-SSRS and six more live inside the real app — answered by radio button, scored instantly, cutoffs interpreted.

PHQ-9: developed by Drs. Spitzer, Williams, Kroenke and colleagues with an educational grant from Pfizer Inc. No permission required.

3 Assessment & Risk

Impressions are chips; risk is structured the way auditors read it. Defaults record “not assessed” — the note never asserts an assessment that wasn't performed.

Clinical impression

Suicidal ideation

Protective factors

Overall risk level

Try it: endorse passive ideation, and the generated note automatically documents access to lethal means — even as “not assessed” — because that's what best practice (and your auditor) expects.

4 Plan — interventions used

42 interventions in the full app, filtered as you type.

Your note — writes itself from your clicks

Click findings on the left, then press Generate Note.

In the desktop app the full note is editable, then copied to your EHR or exported to Word. The real version adds Subjective cleanup, clinical impressions, structured risk assessment, telehealth attestation, and 10 auto-scoring screeners.

Installing is three clicks — and how you can verify what you downloaded

Written for clinicians, not IT departments.

1. Unzip the download (right-click → Extract All…). 2. Open the folder and double-click ProgressNoteStudio.exe. 3. That's it — no installer, no account, no internet.

Digitally signed. The app is code-signed through Microsoft's Azure Artifact Signing service — right-click the .exe → Properties → Digital Signatures shows the identity-verified publisher, Hawani Tessema. If Windows SmartScreen appears on first launch (normal for any new download), click More info → Run anyway.

Verify your download (optional). The official download's SHA-256 checksum is:
5edfabb55369b708746b1a022f0e818f397a616d5f1f4fe98cd123d3e6779fe9
To check: open PowerShell, run Get-FileHash ProgressNoteStudio_v1.zip, and compare. A match means the file is byte-for-byte what we published.

Your data never leaves your machine. The app makes no network connections and saves nothing on its own — there is no server, no telemetry, and nothing for us (or anyone) to breach. Questions before buying? support@progressnotestudio.com
