Yeah, that's – I mean, it's a really thorough workflow and really covers all bases.

I think one of the really interesting developmental skills now for therapists that are starting to use and integrate technologies, even before – I mean, obviously, Prev solves some of what I'm about to describe, but not all of it.

And I think that what I'm going to describe now is almost getting into a habit of – consenting the patient thoroughly for the fact that you're bugging the room is often a joke i make right i say look this is stored securely but fundamentally i'm using ai assistance here to help with my documentation means i can concentrate on the conversation so i have you have your patter right that you develop to explain that once you've done that they're going to give you a bit of license for sometimes speaking for the room and getting into a habit to inform prev that's listening in At a level of detail and cueing for an exercise, the richer you can articulate it, the better.

And there's a skill in doing that where if you were just speaking for your robot overlords and ignoring the patient, it'd feel really weird.

Now, the patient will recognize when they get their treatment plans and stuff, they realize that the accuracy is for them too.

That's cool because it gives us more license to then be, like I say, speaking to the room.

There is a shortcoming though, and I wondered if you've any plans to solve this, is that Objective assessments are massively compromised.

And because of the way in which, especially if you think of just about AI scribes, which we've been using now for the best part of two years, various different ones, been involved in being a consultant to various different companies that were producing some of the early ones, is that...

The way in which you then need to articulate what you're feeling and seeing, that feels a bit selfish, like I mentioned before.

But unlike, say, dentists who've been verbalizing things as they've assessed for quite a while, where you kind of get used to that as a consumer.

That's a bit uncanny when you're describing your ligament test and stuff like that.

And then also I've spoken to founders of these companies that are very proud of the fact that therapists are – the notes must be increasingly accurate because they're waving them through without edits.

I'm really concerned about that because I think one of the reasons they're waving them through without edits is out of complacency rather than accuracy.

You've given me a glimmer of hope because your app does some filming for the exercises.

Is that going to then translate to being able to prop that up on a tripod and witnessing the objective assessment is only going to be an improvement in it?
