Built for therapy from day one rather than retrofitted from a generic medical scribe. SOAP, DAP, BIRP, GIRP and a handful of therapy-specific templates ship out of the box, treatment-plan drafting is genuinely useful, and telehealth capture works inside the same browser session as the call. HIPAA-aligned with a BAA, audio is not retained by default once the note is generated, and the company states it does not train models on customer session data. Pricing is published and starts with a real free tier rather than a 7-day trial. The main trade-off is depth of EHR integration: writing back into SimplePractice / TherapyNotes is mostly copy-paste today.

Pick Supanote if you need solo therapists trialing ai documentation without commitment. Pick Upheal if you need private-practice therapists who want progress notes in their preferred format with minimal cleanup. Verify on a live session before committing — both publish trials or free tiers worth using.
