Running your first session
Before you start
Make sure you have:
- The Delta desktop app installed and open.
- A microphone — your computer's built-in microphone works fine. If your computer doesn't have one, you'll need an external microphone.
- Sufficient recording or copilot credits. To check your balance, click on your avatar in the top-right corner of the navigation bar to open the side panel, then click Credits. The credits included depend on your plan.
Starting a session
- Click the Start session button in the desktop app.
- Choose your mode: Recording (transcription only) or Copilot (real-time suggestions).
- Select the patient to link the session to.
- Begin your consultation — Delta will record the audio in the background.
During the session
A small floating window will appear, showing the recording status and duration. You can minimize it or move it anywhere on your screen.
Ending the session
- Click Stop in the floating window or use the keyboard shortcut.
- Delta will process the recording and generate structured session notes.
- You'll find your notes in the Sessions section of your dashboard.
Tip: For the best results, place your microphone between you and your patient, and minimize background noise.
