Smart Briefs

Smart Briefs are AI-powered clinical summaries that Cleo prepares for each patient you’re working with. They appear in the side panel and adapt to your current workflow phase.

If you have multiple patients open across tabs, the side panel shows a brief for each one in an accordion layout. Click any patient’s name to expand their brief — only one is expanded at a time to keep things focused.

Each patient card shows:

  • Name, age, and sex
  • Key clinical findings at a glance
  • Actionable headlines you can click to dig deeper

Smart Briefs provide a quick clinical snapshot tailored to your workflow phase:

Clinical Overview — A concise summary answering “Who is this patient clinically and what matters right now?”

Care Gaps — Overdue vaccinations, missing screenings (HbA1c for diabetics), BP not at goal, eye/foot exams due, and other preventive care gaps.

Key Clinical Data — Top medications with doses, active diagnoses, allergies, and recent labs.

Actionable Prompts — Suggested next steps you can click to take action directly through Cleo.

Briefs adapt their content based on what you’re doing:

PhaseFocus
PreparationPre-visit summary, care gaps, pending orders
EncounterRelevant findings, decision support, medication alerts
Wrap-UpDocumentation prompts, follow-up reminders
ReviewComprehensive summary, trend analysis

Briefs appear as cards in the side panel with the overview, findings, and actionable prompts. The Action Island also notifies you when a new brief is ready.

Briefs generate when you open a patient chart or navigate to patient-specific pages. They only appear on patient-specific pages — not on patient lists, schedules, or other non-patient pages.
