What the pricing really means
At first glance, NovoPsych looks cheaper at $0/month vs $349/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 Elation Health wins
- Clinical-first design with a single-page chart that primary care docs love
- Best-in-KLAS 2023 for telehealth, powered by Zoom

- NovoNote AI Scribe supports CBT, ACT, EMDR, and other specific modalities
- Free tier gives 5 assessments/month which covers a light caseload
- Practice plans with clinical governance reports for group oversight
Where Elation Health falls short
- Only 14 G2 reviews despite being a well-known platform
- Annual contracts required since September 2023 with no month-to-month option
- Starting at $349/provider/mo puts it in the expensive tier
- Built for primary care, not behavioral health or therapy workflows
Where NovoPsych falls short
- NOT a practice management platform — outcome measures and AI notes only
- No scheduling, billing, client portal messaging, or insurance features
- No G2 or Capterra presence — Australian-origin, still building US awareness
- No open API for integrations
