What the pricing really means
At first glance, Blueprint Health looks cheaper at $0/month vs $50/month. But sticker price is only part of the story. Look at what is included on the base plan, how many users you get, and whether you need add-ons to get the features you actually need. The $99/month plan that requires $200 in add-ons is actually more expensive than the $250/month plan that includes everything.
Where Blueprint Health wins
- Core EHR is completely free with no client limits, no session limits, and no trial expiration, which is unmatched in the category
- Pay-per-session AI pricing means you only pay $0.99-$1.49 when you actually use the AI scribe, not a flat monthly fee
- Built-in telehealth included free on all plans, while competitors like TherapyNotes charge $15/mo extra
- Over 70,000 therapists already use the platform, and the 600+ evidence-based intervention library adds real clinical value
- 5 free Pro session credits on signup let you test the AI features before spending anything
Where CounSol wins
- Every single user gets a personal dedicated account manager, which is unheard of at this price point in healthcare software
- 4.9/5 customer service score on Capterra backed by 828 reviews, not just a handful of happy users
- e-Prescribing available as an add-on ($60-70/mo), so psychiatrists and prescribers can stay on one platform
- All four plans include HIPAA-compliant records, scheduling, secure messaging, and a branded client portal
- CounselorListing.com advertising included on Standard Plus and above, which is free marketing for your practice
Where Blueprint Health falls short
- Newer platform with limited review history on G2 and Capterra, so long-term reliability is harder to assess
- No e-prescribing, so psychiatrists and prescribers will still need another system
- No native mobile app yet, so documentation between sessions means opening a browser
- Insurance claims and payment processing have per-transaction fees that could add up for high-volume practices
Where CounSol falls short
- No mobile app, and CounSol has been promising one is coming without delivering, which frustrates practitioners who work between offices
- Video sessions are glitchy according to multiple reviews, with group video not supported and device compatibility issues reported
- Video session quality is inconsistent — multiple reviews report glitches, and group video is not supported
- Interface looks dated compared to newer competitors like SimplePractice or Jane, which may put off younger practitioners
- No API means zero automation or integration with external tools
