AI documentation and PsyPrax: the reviewed draft in session documentation
PsyPrax does not publish its own AI feature on its reviewed pages. Anyone in a psychotherapy practice who wants to work with a draft therefore uses a separate, standalone tool alongside it — and copies the reviewed text into the tamper-evident protocol function where you already document.
Reviewed editorially against product behaviour and the stated primary sources; not individual medical or legal advice.
How the reviewed draft gets into PsyPrax
psyprax describes a "tamper-evident protocol function for documenting sessions" (accessed on 4 September 2026). That is exactly where the text goes: you read the draft, remove anything that doesn't belong in the record, copy the rest, and insert it.
Tamper-evident also means that an entry, once saved, cannot simply disappear. That is an argument for taking the review step seriously before inserting the text — not afterwards.
What PsyPrax is designed for
psyprax calls itself "the practice software for psychotherapists" on its own site and describes its use in "practices, outpatient clinics and training institutes" (accessed on 4 September 2026). The provider names no further groups there.
The psychotherapy session is the edge case that shows whether a documentation tool holds up: it is long, it contains much that is not meant to be documented, and only the treating person decides what is selected. A draft that contains everything is no advantage here — it is only useful if it can be quickly trimmed down.
What psyprax GmbH itself publishes
On psyprax's reviewed pages — homepage, feature overview and price list — no dedicated AI, dictation or speech-recognition feature is named (accessed on 4 September 2026). What is named are conventional tools: the tamper-evident protocol function and an interface to word processing for submitting applications.
That is a clean finding, not a criticism. For the practice it simply means that the question of the data pathway rests entirely with the maker of the documentation tool — and that there is no second, already integrated offering here to compare against.

What the practice should clarify before a pilot
The technical questions are quickly answered with this approach. The questions that remain concern the workflow within the team — and they should be answered before the first real appointment, not after.
- Which field in the protocol function should receive the reviewed draft?
- How do you ensure the draft is trimmed down before it is saved?
- How do you inform patients about the recording, and how do you document consent — including during ongoing therapy?
- What happens to the recording and the draft if a patient withdraws consent to the recording partway through?
- Who has access to the draft while it has not yet been carried over?
Frequently asked questions
Does PsyPrax have its own AI feature?
None is named on the reviewed provider pages (as of 4 September 2026). What is named are the tamper-evident protocol function and an interface to word processing.
How does the draft get into PsyPrax?
It is copied into the text field of the protocol function. There is no interface, and nothing is installed in PsyPrax.
Does a draft even make sense in psychotherapy?
That is for the practice to decide. It is useful if it can quickly be reduced to what should be documented. What belongs in the record is always decided by the treating person.
