Kith
An AI assistant for therapists that listens to a session (in person or on a video call), transcribes it, and writes the clinical note afterward so the therapist doesn't have to.

Description
Therapists typically spend a chunk of every session split between actually listening to a client and jotting notes for the required clinical record, then spend extra unpaid time after hours writing up a full SOAP note from memory. Kith is built to remove that second part: it records the session (with consent), transcribes it accurately even with clinical/medical terminology, and generates a structured SOAP note within minutes, so the therapist can stay present during the actual conversation instead of half-typing.
Technically, it works ambiently — no need to press record and manage a device mid-session — and covers both in-person conversations and online sessions via Google Meet integration. Beyond note generation, it adds practice-management basics: smart scheduling with conflict detection, session reminders, and (on the top tier) in-session AI suggestions and patient messaging. It's positioned around clinical compliance specifically, with HIPAA-compliant handling, field-level PHI encryption, and DPDP 2023 certification, which matters more here than in a typical productivity app since the underlying data is protected health information.
💬 Our review
The short version: Kith does the one thing therapists actually want — turn a session into a usable clinical note without manual typing — and it's priced noticeably lower than most of the AI-scribe competition, but it's a newer entrant in a space that already has several well-funded, mental-health-specific competitors with longer track records.
The free tier (5 sessions, in-person only) is a reasonable way to test accuracy on your own clinical vocabulary before trusting it with real notes, which is the right call in a category where transcription mistakes in a medical record are a real liability, not just an annoyance. At $20/month for 60 sessions with online support, Kith undercuts most dedicated therapy-scribe products, which commonly sit anywhere from $30 to well over $80/month depending on volume and features — so the price point alone makes it worth a trial for solo practitioners and small practices. The open question is maturity: HIPAA compliance and encryption claims are necessary but not sufficient, and a newer product hasn't had years of real-world clinical use to prove out transcription accuracy on accents, overlapping speech, or emotionally difficult sessions the way more established players like Upheal or Mentalyc have.
