What the pricing really means
At first glance, Blueprint Health looks cheaper at $0/month vs $19/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 Zanda wins
- Starts at $19/mo for solo practitioners, which is the cheapest entry point in allied health practice management
- 12-month money-back guarantee means you can commit for a year and still bail if it does not work out
- Customizable clinical note templates let physios, psychologists, and OTs each build their own workflows without workarounds
- Multi-location and room management included on the Growth plan, so expanding clinics do not need to upgrade to a separate tier
- BizzyAI scribe transcribes sessions and generates notes at $1/hour, cheaper than most AI documentation add-ons
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 Zanda falls short
- Starter plan caps you at 1,000 appointments, which a busy solo practitioner can hit in under a year
- SMS reminders cost extra at ~9 cents per message plus a $4.99/mo dedicated number fee, and those charges add up fast
- API is still in beta with early access only, so custom integrations are not production-ready yet
- Australian origin means insurance billing and clearinghouse integrations for US payers are limited compared to US-built competitors
