AI-assisted patient interviews
Guided intake and structured interviewing that adapts to the patient, captures key symptoms, and surfaces what matters for the clinician.
AI for Psychiatry
Rafiq
An AI companion for psychiatrists — helping clinicians interview patients, draft clinical notes, follow up, and research the evidence.
Rafiq means “companion” in Arabic.
What is Rafiq
A clinician-first agentic system for psychiatric care.
Rafiq is an agentic AI platform built for psychiatrists and mental-health clinics. It sits alongside the clinician throughout the patient journey — from intake to interview, note writing, and follow-up — and provides a chatbot co-pilot for everything in between.
The goal is simple: let clinicians spend their time on the work only they can do, and let Rafiq handle the rest.
Capabilities
What Rafiq does for the clinician.
Rafiq covers the full arc of a psychiatric visit — interview, documentation, follow-up, and research — with a chatbot co-pilot always within reach.
Clinical note writing
Drafts SOAP notes, progress notes, and intake summaries from the interview — the clinician reviews and signs off.
Patient follow-up
Schedules check-ins, tracks adherence and symptom change over time, and flags patients who need attention.
Research assistant
Pulls relevant literature, clinical guidelines, and drug information on demand — with citations you can verify.
Differential diagnosis support
Suggests differentials grounded in DSM-5-TR and presents the reasoning behind each, leaving the diagnosis to the clinician.
Chatbot co-pilot
An in-app assistant for day-to-day clinical questions, documentation help, and workflow tasks — always a message away.
How it works
Four steps, one continuous workflow.
01
Intake
The patient completes a structured intake, either on their own or with Rafiq guiding them. Prior history and questionnaires are collected in one place.
02
Interview assist
During the session, Rafiq listens and surfaces suggested questions, screening instruments, and risk flags — the clinician stays in full control.
03
Draft notes
Rafiq drafts the clinical note immediately after the session. The clinician edits, signs, and exports to the EHR.
04
Follow-up
Rafiq handles reminders, between-visit check-ins, and symptom tracking, bringing anything important back to the clinician.
Who it's for
Built with psychiatrists. Made for clinical teams.
Psychiatrists
Spend more time with patients and less on documentation. Rafiq handles the paperwork around the session.
Clinics
Standardize intake, notes, and follow-up across clinicians. Improve continuity of care without changing how clinicians work.
Researchers
Structured, consented data from real clinical encounters — ready for studies on outcomes, pathways, and interventions.
Clinical oversight. Privacy by design.
Rafiq assists the clinician, never replaces them. Every diagnosis, treatment, and note is reviewed and signed off by a licensed psychiatrist. Rafiq's role is to reduce administrative load and surface relevant information — not to practice medicine.
Patient data is encrypted in transit and at rest, access is role-based, and every action is auditable. Rafiq is designed to meet HIPAA-style privacy standards and can be deployed in environments that match your region's regulatory requirements.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
Does Rafiq replace the clinician?
No. Rafiq assists the clinician. Every diagnosis, treatment decision, and note is reviewed and signed off by a licensed psychiatrist. Rafiq is designed to remove friction around the clinical work, not to practice medicine.
How does Rafiq handle patient privacy?
Patient data is encrypted in transit and at rest, access is role-based, and every action is auditable. Rafiq is built with HIPAA-style protections in mind and can be deployed in environments that meet regional privacy requirements.
What is the chatbot for?
The in-app chatbot is a co-pilot for clinicians — ask it to summarize a patient history, find a relevant guideline, draft a letter, or pull up a screening instrument. It is available inside the clinician workspace, not to patients directly.
Does Rafiq integrate with an EHR?
Rafiq is designed to fit into existing workflows. Notes and summaries can be exported in standard formats, and direct EHR integrations are available on request.

Why the name Rafiq?
