Announcing Sidekick: A New Era of AI-Powered Clinical Documentation

Today marks a significant milestone for Videra Health: we’re launching Sidekick, our comprehensive AI-powered solution designed to transform how healthcare professionals create, manage, and derive insights from clinical documentation.

The Documentation Burden

Every behavioral health clinician knows the weight of documentation requirements. Hours spent typing notes after patient sessions. Evenings catching up on paperwork instead of recharging. The constant tension between thorough documentation and sustainable workload.

Documentation is essential -it ensures continuity of care, supports billing, meets regulatory requirements, and protects both patients and providers. But it shouldn’t consume the majority of a clinician’s time and energy.

Introducing Sidekick

Sidekick is an AI-powered clinical assistant that dramatically reduces documentation time while improving note quality. It works the way clinicians work:

Ambient Listening

With patient consent, Sidekick listens to your session and automatically generates comprehensive clinical notes. No more reconstructing conversations from memory hours later -your documentation is ready for review immediately after the session ends.

Dictation Mode

Prefer to summarize in your own words? Sidekick’s enhanced dictation automatically expands your abbreviated notes into comprehensive documentation, capturing clinical detail that might otherwise be lost.

Multiple Note Formats

Sidekick supports the documentation formats behavioral health clinicians actually use, including GIRP notes, progress notes, and medical necessity documentation. Customize the tone and detail level to match your preferences and requirements.

Sidekick Elevate: Beyond Documentation

Sidekick doesn’t just create notes -it surfaces insights that improve care. Sidekick Elevate analyzes clinical sessions to provide actionable metrics:

• Provider/patient alignment tracking - Speech rate, question frequency, emotional mirroring
• Sentiment analysis - Track emotional tone across sessions
• Key Moments - AI-identified critical insights not captured in notes

These metrics support clinical supervision, quality improvement, and deeper understanding of the therapeutic relationship.

Built for Behavioral Health

Unlike general-purpose transcription tools, Sidekick is purpose-built for behavioral health. It understands clinical terminology, recognizes therapeutic modalities, and generates documentation that meets the specific requirements of mental health and substance use treatment.

HIPAA Compliant

Sidekick is fully HIPAA compliant. All audio processing occurs in secure, encrypted environments. Recordings can be automatically deleted after note generation per your organization’s policies. We never use patient data to train our models.
