IQ:capture
IQ:capture is purpose-built for home care providers to record and transcribe care consultations, internal interviews, review meetings and team discussions in real time, then produce clear, structured summaries. It works on its own, so you do not need the full Unique IQ platform to use it.
And if you do use IQ:careassist, summaries feed directly into care plan creation, reducing hours of administrative work to minutes.
IQ:capture is designed to work seamlessly alongside IQ:careassist, Unique IQ’s AI-powered co-authoring care planning tool. Together, they form a connected workflow that takes a care consultation from recording to care plan faster than ever before.
Here is how it works:
Record – The care consultation is recorded through IQ:capture.
Transcribe – IQ:capture produces an accurate transcription of the conversation in real time.
Summarise – A structured summary is automatically generated, capturing the key information from the consultation. IQ:capture produces this as a professional care plan document in your own branding, ready to export to PDF, Word or email, and the summary also feeds into IQ:careassist to start co-authoring the care plan.
Plan – The summary feeds directly into IQ:careassist, which uses it to co-author a high-quality, person-centred care plan.
The result: care plans that once took hours can now be started, shaped and drafted within minutes of the consultation ending.
Plenty of tools can turn speech into text. IQ:capture is different because it is built for the specific realities of care.
You decide where each recording goes. Save to the cloud for easy access across your team, or, on desktop, keep a recording stored locally. Some conversations are especially sensitive, a safeguarding disclosure, a grievance, a mental capacity assessment, and for these you may prefer to keep the recording local. That choice stays with you.
IQ:capture comes preloaded with templates for the conversations care teams have every week. Once you have recorded, you simply choose the meeting type and IQ:capture produces a structured, professional document designed for that purpose, aligned to CQC standards and in your own branding.
Preloaded templates include appraisal, care plan review, care professional interview, care record audit, client and family review call, competency, assessment and sign off, complaint record and investigation, handover briefing (office and on call), health review form, health risk assessment for care professionals, incident, accident and near miss report, initial needs assessment, investigation, disciplinary and grievance, management meeting, medication audit, mental capacity assessment, reassessment after change, recruitment interview, return to work and absence, risk assessment, safeguarding concern record, spot check and observation of care, supervision (1:1), and team meeting minutes.
Every document comes out in your own branding, ready to share, export or file.
IQ:capture was developed by Unique IQ rather than licensed from another company. That holds true whether you use IQ:capture on its own or alongside the rest of the platform.

IQ:careassist has already helped care providers reduce care plan creation time by 96%. IQ:capture takes that further, giving teams an even faster starting point by turning care consultations into structured summaries before the planning even begins.
If you are not yet using IQ:careassist, it is a great place to start.
Care transcription software built for home care providers. It records consultations, interviews and meetings, transcribes them accurately and produces a structured summary in your own branding. It works as a standalone tool, and if you use IQ:careassist the summary feeds straight into care plan creation.
Once IQ:capture records and transcribes a care consultation, it produces a summary of the key information. That summary is then used by IQ:careassist to co-author a care plan, significantly reducing the time between consultation and completed documentation.
IQ:capture is designed to be used across a range of care conversations, including initial assessments, review meetings, family consultations, staff interviews and internal discussions.
No. IQ:capture works on its own, whatever care management system you run. It records the conversation, transcribes it and produces a structured document you can export to PDF, Word or email. If you do use IQ:careassist, a consultation summary flows straight in to co-author the care plan, which is where the biggest time saving sits.
Yes. IQ:capture does not require any particular care system. You get the recording, the transcript and a finished document you can file wherever you keep your records.
Security and compliance are at the core of everything we build at Unique IQ. IQ:capture is developed to the same high standards of data protection as the rest of our platform, including GDPR compliance and encrypted data handling. You also choose where each recording is stored, in the cloud or, on desktop, kept locally, giving you control over your most sensitive conversations.
IQ:capture works across desktop and mobile, with applications for Windows and Mac and a mobile app for iOS and Android, so your team can capture a conversation wherever it takes place
