APA’s Committee on Mental Health IT developed a list of some questions that it believes relevant to gather information that may be useful in assessing an AI scribe tool. In July, 2025, the identified questions were sent to 31AI scribe tool developers and the answers received from those entities have been published below. Note that not all entities which received the inquiry provided a response. This page will be updated as more responses are received.
These sample questions are intended to provide suggestions of information to consider when evaluating an AI scribe tool for potential use in a psychiatric practice. The sample answer responses reflect the information provided by the tool developer on a specific date; they have not been independently verified as accurate by APA and do not necessarily reflect the most current information for the tool. APA encourages each individual to conduct their own assessment before using any tool. APA does not endorse and has not investigated the quality of any particular AI scribe tool mentioned and assumes no responsibility for any result or outcome related to the use of the information or any tool.
