Inside the medication workflow
Medication references beside the encounter.
The Medication Safety panel surfaces detected medication names and searchable reference cards with warnings, counseling information, and source links. The clinician verifies doses and patient-specific risks.

Bottom line
Freed AI is a capable general medical scribe across 96+ specialties, and if your group spans specialties it is a reasonable default. Psychiatric providers have workflows general tools were not designed around — MSE documentation, medication references, SI/HI liability, 42 CFR Part 2 — and Psynopsis goes deep where Freed goes wide. Both produce drafts you review and sign; the difference is how much of the psychiatric structure is already right when the draft lands.
