Blueprint Health vs Upheal
Upheal scores 7.5/10 vs 7.2/10. Best for: Therapists who spend too many evenings writing session notes and want AI to draft SOAP/DAP notes from the actual session, not a template.
Upheal scores higher overall at 7.5/10 vs 7.2/10. Buy Upheal if you are a solo therapist spending hours on session notes and want AI to draft them from the actual conversation. The $1-per-session model is fair and the cap at $69 keeps costs predictable. Skip it if you bill insurance or run a group practice, because those features do not exist yet.

What the pricing really means
At first glance, Upheal looks cheaper at $0/month vs $0/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 Upheal wins
- The AI notes actually work. It listens to your session (or reads your uploaded recording) and drafts a SOAP, DAP, GIRP, or BIRP note that you edit in minutes instead of writing from scratch
- Pay-per-session pricing capped at $69/month means you only pay for what you use. A therapist seeing 15 clients a week maxes out at $69, not $150
- Free tier lets you try AI notes from text summaries and uploaded recordings without paying anything
- 30-day free trial of Premium with no credit card. You can test AI notes on real sessions before committing
- Session analytics show speech patterns and sentiment data, which gives you a different angle on client progress
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 Upheal falls short
- No insurance billing at all right now. If you take insurance, you need a separate billing tool. Insurance billing is on the roadmap for Q2 2026 but not shipped yet
- Very new product with minimal reviews on G2 and Capterra. You are an early adopter, with the risks that come with that
- No secure messaging feature. You cannot communicate with clients through the platform between sessions
- Group practice features are missing. This is built for solo therapists right now
