Questions about Lesskeys for therapists
Does Lesskeys follow the privacy rules for client records?
Lesskeys makes no claim about the privacy rules that apply to your practice. The audio is turned into text on your computer and is not uploaded, but you or your practice are responsible for the rules; ask whoever advises you.
Can I dictate directly into my notes app or records system?
Yes, anywhere you can paste text. Dictate, then paste the text into the field. Lesskeys has no connection to any records system.
Can I record therapy sessions with it?
Yes, with your client's informed consent. Open Lesskeys before the session and press Record Call; for an online session, a small “Call detected” prompt also appears in the call apps and websites it recognizes. Stay within your jurisdiction's rules and professional guidance.
