Nabla Copilot
Nabla is primarily a general-medicine ambient scribe with the strongest compliance stack in the space (HIPAA, SOC 2 Type II, GDPR, ISO 27001) and a real free tier. The mental-health module adds psychiatry-oriented templates. Less suitable for talk-therapy-only workflows because the editor and template library are tuned for medical visits, but a defensible choice for psychiatry inside larger health systems.

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.

Pick Nabla Copilot if you need psychiatrists in larger health systems already evaluating nabla for primary care. Pick Heidi Health if you need therapists and psychiatrists outside the us who need a hipaa + gdpr + australian privacy act-aligned scribe. Verify on a live session before committing — both publish trials or free tiers worth using.
