The big idea

Some examples
- List your symptoms; have AI organize a timeline.
- Ask AI for 5 questions to ask about your condition.
- Have AI rank questions by urgency.
- Generate a one-page summary you bring to the visit.
Try it!
Before your next appointment, write down 3 things bothering you. Have AI turn that into a 5-question list.
