Maxly FAQ: Your Questions, Answered

Updated this week

Below, we've compiled answers to the most common questions about how Maxly works, its features, and how it can transform your veterinary practice.

What is Maxly, and how does it work?

Maxly is an AI-powered clinical ambient scribe designed for veterinary professionals. It listens during patient consultations and automatically generates structured clinical notes.

To use Maxly:

  • Start an encounter before or during your appointment

  • Speak naturally during the consultation (or dictate directly)

  • Review, edit, and approve the AI-generated note

You can then copy or export the final note into your PIMS (Practice Information Management System). This workflow significantly reduces the time spent on manual documentation.

What makes Maxly different from other AI scribes?

Maxly combines several capabilities into a single workflow built specifically for veterinary professionals:

  • Patient dashboard — View all past encounters for a patient in one place to support continuity of care.

  • Structured data extraction — Key clinical details are organized automatically for easier review and follow-up.

  • AI Assistant — Ask questions about a specific encounter or a patient's history (for example, "Summarize this patient's past diagnoses" or "What treatments has this patient received?").

Together, these features help veterinary professionals go beyond transcription and quickly access meaningful clinical insights.

How secure is my data with Maxly?

Data security and privacy are core priorities for Maxly.

  • All data is encrypted in transit and at rest

  • Maxly complies with applicable privacy and data protection laws in each region

  • Patient data is never used to train AI models

AI models are trained only on publicly available veterinary knowledge—not customer data.

Where is my data stored?

Maxly stores data regionally:

  • United States: data remains in the U.S.

  • Canada: data remains in Canada

All data is securely processed in the cloud and stored in compliance with regional privacy regulations.

What types of notes does Maxly generate?

Maxly supports common veterinary clinical note types, including:

  • SOAP notes

  • History and physical examinations

  • Progress notes

  • Discharge instructions

You can also create custom templates tailored to your veterinary specialty. Over time, Maxly learns from your edits to help streamline future documentation.

Can I customize how my notes are formatted?

Yes. Maxly's Style Settings allow you to control:

  • Verbosity (concise, medium, detailed)

  • Formatting (paragraphs, bullet points, or mixed)

  • Content preferences (client quotes, abbreviations, clarity options)

  • AI model selection

  • Custom drafting instructions

Settings auto-save and apply to all future notes. Maxly can also learn from your edits over time and automatically apply your preferences.

For details, see Customizing Your Note Style in Maxly.

Can I reformat sections of a note after it's generated?

Yes. Use Smart Transform to reformat individual sections:

  • Select text in the note editor

  • Click Transform

  • Choose Paragraph, Bullet Points, or Mixed Format

This is useful for one-off formatting changes without regenerating the entire note.

  • Tablets and smartphones

The mobile apps support core workflows such as recording encounters, transcription, and note generation. The web app provides the full experience for reviewing, editing, and exporting notes.

How accurate is Maxly's transcription?

Maxly uses advanced speech recognition optimized for veterinary clinical conversations, including veterinary terminology, drug names, and species-specific language. Accuracy improves as more context is captured during an encounter.

As with any AI-generated content, veterinary professionals should always review notes before finalizing.

How does Maxly save time?

By automating transcription and note drafting, Maxly often reduces documentation time by over 50%, helping veterinary professionals spend less time charting and more time focused on patient care.

How long can I record for?

There is no maximum recording time.

  • Record for as long as your consultation or dictation requires

  • After 90 minutes of continuous recording, Maxly may prompt you to continue or stop

  • You can pause and resume encounters at any time, with no limit on how long an encounter remains paused

Can I upload documents or images?

Yes. You can upload:

  • PDFs

  • Word documents (.docx)

  • Text files (.txt)

  • Images (PNG, JPEG, GIF, WebP)
