“Not stated” means exactly that. Plenty of capable tools do not publish this detail, and we would rather leave a blank than guess on a competitor’s behalf.

What the choice actually turns on

School Psych AI is a platform for school teams, with report writing alongside AI literacy and professional development, and FERPA certification as its published assurance. PsychAssist is an assessment platform built for the case file and for HIPAA settings. The two serve different rooms more than they serve different budgets.

Ask us both the same questions

Put these to School Psych AI and to us, live, on a case with something messy in it. Marketing claims are cheap and these are not.

  1. 01Show me the evidence in this case that contradicts the diagnosis - the scores, the instrument, and the session it came from.
  2. 02Pick any sentence in this draft. Show me the source it came from, and let me open it.
  3. 03Show me what a clinician approved into this record, and when.
  4. 04Export the audit trail for this case while I watch.
  5. 05Ask for their position on HIPAA, a business associate agreement, retention and model training in writing. We could not find published statements on any of those, which is a question to put to them rather than a conclusion to draw.

We answer all of these, and the table above shows what each vendor states publicly. The demo is where you find out which answers are real. The longer buyer’s guide has the rest.

If you are already using School Psych AI

If your district work is the whole job, a school-team platform may fit the team better. If you also carry clinical cases, the assessment side needs somewhere that is built for PHI.

Bring a case with a contradiction in it - the one where the parent and teacher do not agree - and we will run these questions against it in front of you.

What School Psych AI states publicly

HIPAA and BAA
FERPA certification from iKeepSafe announced February 2025. We found no published statement on HIPAA or a business associate agreement.
Data handling
We could not find published statements on training, retention or encryption. The site is client-side rendered, so treat this as not found rather than confirmed absent, and ask the vendor directly.
Claims traceable to a source
Not found in published material.
Surfacing contradictory data
Not found in published material.
Clinician approval step
Not found in published material.

Hold both of us to the same questions. The six requirements are published to be applied to any platform, ours included, and how to choose turns them into questions for a demo.
