Kitt vs Preve: A Full Clinical System vs an AI Scribe

By The Kitt Team

Preve is an AI scribe that generates notes and treatment plans, and gives patients a one-way link to view their plan. Kitt covers that same documentation workload, adds NDIS and DVA report generation, and, through Kitt Companion, keeps patients supported and engaged between every appointment. For most Australian physio practices, the comparison points firmly in one direction.


Kitt handles the full documentation workload

Kitt Clinician generates session notes in under 60 seconds, ready to review and sign off. Treatment plans and exercise prescriptions generate from the same session. GP and referral letters produce directly from Kitt, cutting the gap between consult and correspondence. NDIS and DVA reports, which represent a real administrative burden for funded-care practices, generate within Kitt Clinician without exporting data or switching systems.

Documentation is the baseline. Every clinical assistant should handle it well. What separates Kitt from a Preve alternative is what happens after the patient walks out.


Kitt Companion: care that extends beyond the practice

Preve gives patients a one-way link to view their treatment plan. Kitt Companion is a live, two-way care app, included with every Kitt subscription. It extends the clinician’s reach into the recovery period between appointments without adding to the clinician’s workload. This is a significant distinction. Most of a patient’s recovery happens between sessions, not in them.

Companion covers six areas.

Guided recovery support. Patients can ask questions about their treatment plan between appointments. Companion responds with guidance drawn directly from the clinician’s plan, so patients get answers grounded in their actual care, not generic internet advice. The clinician does nothing extra. The patient leaves each session with a reliable point of contact for questions during the recovery period, not just a set of instructions and a follow-up date.

Education and resources. The treatment plan, exercise prescriptions, and educational materials all sit together inside Companion. Patients understand what they’re doing and why it matters to their recovery. That clarity reduces the ad-hoc messages and calls that accumulate between sessions and eat into clinical time.

Exercise tracking. Patients log their exercises, sets, and reps, and see their progress over time. The clinician gets real visibility into adherence between sessions. Actual data replaces a patient’s best effort at recollection at the next consult. It changes what the clinician walks into, and how that time gets used.

Smart check-ins. Companion automatically checks in on pain levels, exercise completion, and overall wellbeing. When something needs attention, it raises a flag to the clinician. The practice stays structured and responsive without anyone manually chasing patients between appointments or waiting for them to call.

Closed-loop care. Engagement data feeds back into Kitt Clinician. Adherence, pain reports, and recovery progress surface on the clinician dashboard, alongside activity and heart-rate signals from wearables. Recovery between sessions becomes visible and measurable. The clinician arrives at the next consult knowing what happened in the gap, not piecing it together from memory.

The engagement payoff. Drop-off is a recognised problem in physiotherapy. Patients disengage between sessions, stop completing their exercises, and don’t return. Companion reduces that drop-off by keeping patients actively connected to their recovery. Patients who stay engaged are more likely to complete their treatment plan and stay on track. The practice gains better outcomes, and the clinician carries no extra admin overhead to get there.


Who chooses Kitt

Kitt suits Australian physio practices managing documentation across standard consultations, GP referrals, and funded-care schemes including NDIS and DVA, and that want patients genuinely supported between sessions rather than given a static view of their plan.

The practices that move to Kitt from a Preve alternative tend to describe the same shift: they stopped managing documentation and started having visibility over recovery. The two are connected. When documentation is structured and patients are engaged, the practice becomes less reactive and more measurable.

If you’re comparing Kitt vs Preve and need the complete picture, that’s it. One system informs patients. The other keeps them active in their recovery, and gives the practice real clarity into what’s happening between sessions.

Your clinical assistant. Always on.
