Rehab therapy software innovator Raintree announced powerful new artificial intelligence solutions today at TherapyCon ’26. Chief Executive Officer Nick Hedges introduced these advanced tools during his opening keynote presentation. Also, Raintree launched NoteIQ and SchedulerIQ to help alleviate the heavy documentation burden on busy clinical teams.
Today the company launched two dedicated platforms, Agentic PX and Agentic RCM. So these smart systems automate complex administrative tasks in front office and billing departments. Current market statistics show 57% of practices cannot meet surging patient demand. Moreover, physical therapist supply falls 8.2% short of maintaining basic population care. Inflation-adjusted physical therapist pay declined roughly 10% over the past decade. Therefore, Raintree builds automated software features to protect practice finances and improve retention.
Streamlined Clinical Documentation and Front-Desk Automation
Raintree designed its Invisible EMR concept to help therapists focus directly on care. ScribeIQ currently handles documentation across millions of annual patient visits. Meanwhile, NoteIQ cuts evaluation reporting time down from 45 minutes to under two minutes. Consequently, clinicians capture $5.00 more revenue per visit while reducing after-hours work.
“I have never spent less time on evals now that I’m using NoteIQ™, which is really, really awesome,” said a physical therapist at a multi-clinic practice that has been documenting with NoteIQ™. “I am finishing initial evaluations during the actual evaluation. I can be more attentive to patients because I’m not worrying about documentation.”
Scheduling problems can cause significant revenue loss when calls are routed to unanswered voicemails. But SchedulerIQ cuts multi-appointment plan-of-care booking times from 12 minutes to one. In addition, Raintree previewed Marcy, a smart front desk receptionist agent working 24/7. Marcy is bilingual in English and Spanish makes complex visit scheduling, insurance verification, and phone calls. This results in 30% fewer no-shows in practices and substantial recovery of lost revenue.
Strategic platform expansion and independent revenue operations
Industry claim denial rates still hover at around 13%, leaving teams to manually appeal most denials. To address the challenge, Raintree’s Agentic RCM was deployed to automate the intricate billing processes. The platform leverages Lucy, an AI eligibility specialist that automatically navigates payer portals. Lucy also asks complex coverage questions and writes data back to the EMR. This feature reduces verification touch times by 91% and recovers additional revenue.
Raintree enhanced its AI capabilities in July 2026, with the purchase of Spike Technologies. This strategic acquisition instantly increased Raintree’s machine learning engineering team by a factor of five.
Hedges’ keynote rejects the prevailing narrative that AI will hollow out clinical jobs. “Rehab therapy holds an outsized role in patients’ healthcare outcomes and long-term recovery. This profession is deeply personal, intensely physical, and profoundly relationship-focused,” he told the audience. “It will never be replaced by AI. The real risk is the opposite. The threat was never too few jobs it is too few clinicians.”
“We are not optimizing at the margins,” Hedges said in closing. “Cutting costs and increasing revenue leads to more therapists, better pay, greater patient access, and practices that are economically viable for the long term. An EMR that is both invisible and autonomous is how we get there.”
Ultimately, Raintree trains its secure models on 7.3 billion workflow data points. The company holds SOC 2 Type II certification for complete data protection.
