CUPERTINO, Calif., May 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ --Â Psynk AI, a pioneer in clinical-grade artificial intelligence for mental health, today announced a strategic partnership with Ocean View Psychiatric Hospital to deploy its AI-powered psychiatric assistant in a live inpatient setting.
The pilot program embeds Psynk AI directly into daily clinical workflows across psychiatrists, nurse practitioners, and nursing staff, supporting real-time documentation, patient assessment, and longitudinal mental health monitoring.
Purpose-Built Clinical AI for Inpatient Psychiatric Care
Unlike general-purpose healthcare AI tools, Psynk AI is purpose-built for psychiatric care, leveraging specialized models trained on mental health data to capture clinical nuance and improve decision support.
"This partnership represents a major step forward in bringing clinically grounded AI into real-world psychiatric care," saidQing Lu, CEO of Psynk AI. "By working alongside frontline clinicians, we are building technology that meaningfully reduces administrative burden while enhancing patient care."
The collaboration is designed as a co-development model, with Ocean View clinicians actively shaping product features through continuous feedback. Early results from the pilot indicate significant improvements in operational efficiency and care delivery, including reductions in documentation time and increased clinician capacity.
"Integrating Psynk AI into our inpatient workflows has the potential to transform how we deliver care," saidJack Stephens, CEO at Ocean View Psychiatric Hospital."This technology allows our clinicians to focus more on patients and less on paperwork, while maintaining high standards of clinical accuracy."
Core Features of the Psynk AI Psychiatric Assistant
The pilot spans multiple disciplines and use cases, including:
Automated psychiatrist documentation and note generation
Nursing workflow automation and shift-based documentation
Real-time clinical handoff and cross-discipline care coordination
Audit-ready compliance documentation that lowers denial risk
