Kipu Health, a company that provides technology solutions for behavioral health, announced it is collaborating with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to deliver a suite of original AI solutions for healthcare providers. 

The initial offering within the AI suite is designed to simplify clinical workflows by transcribing patients' sessions, generating progress notes and delivering chart summaries for providers.

The Kipu Intelligence Program (KIP) is intended to leverage AWS' AI offerings to advance ethical AI solutions that decrease the administrative workload for healthcare providers.

In addition, KIP will assist providers with secure and efficient tools personalized to their specific needs, including streamlined critical workflows and eventually improve provider efficacy and patient outcomes.

"Our collaboration unites the best of behavioral health expertise with cutting-edge technology to significantly reduce the administrative burden on clinicians and therapy providers, allowing them to focus more on their patient," Carina Edwards, chief executive officer of Kipu, said in a statement. "We're excited to continue leading the way in behavioral health innovation."
