Blueprint
Distinct from a pure scribe — Blueprint started as a measurement-based-care platform and now ships an ambient note layer that ties session content to outcome measures (PHQ-9, GAD-7, etc.). Useful if you want one tool for both. HIPAA-aligned with BAA. Pricing is published per-clinician with a free trial. Note quality is solid on standard talk-therapy formats; specialty templates are narrower than Mentalyc or Upheal.

General medical scribe with a serious therapy template library and an unusually broad compliance posture (HIPAA, GDPR, Australian Privacy Act, ISO 27001). Free tier is generous and the editor handles long, narrative sessions well. Therapy templates are user-customisable and several are community-maintained. Trade-off: it is not therapy-only, so some workflow polish (e.g. recurring-client memory across sessions) lags pure-play therapy tools.
