BreezyNotes vs Upheal
Upheal scores 7.5/10 vs 6.5/10. 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 6.5/10. 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 $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 BreezyNotes wins
- Built specifically for Canadian therapists with Canadian billing codes and insurance workflows, which US-based EHRs typically do not support
- Pay-per-note pricing starts at $19/mo and scales with volume, so quiet months cost less instead of a flat fee you pay regardless
- Pricing is per practice, not per therapist, so adding clinicians does not multiply your monthly bill
- Customer support is consistently praised in reviews for being responsive and treating practices like partners, not ticket numbers
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 BreezyNotes falls short
- Only 14 reviews on Capterra, which makes it hard to assess long-term reliability or know what happens when things go wrong
- No native mobile app, so charting between sessions means logging into a browser on your phone
- No e-prescribing or outcome measurement tools, so prescribers and researchers will need separate systems
- Client portal and appointment reminders are reported as not fully functional by some reviewers, with manual data entry still required in spots
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
