What the pricing really means
At first glance, Weave looks cheaper at $249/month vs $600/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 Kipu Health wins
- 4.7 on both G2 and Capterra — highest-rated EHR in behavioral health
- Powers 6,000+ facilities and 150,000+ users, proven at scale
- HITRUST certified and 42 CFR Part 2 compliant for addiction records
- Full RCM with per-diem billing, denial management, and KipuPay
Where Weave wins
- 4.6 G2 rating with 426 reviews is highest in category for communication tools
- VoIP phones with missed call texting means you never lose a new patient inquiry
- Integrates with 70+ existing practice management systems
- Text-to-pay gets you paid faster than mailing statements
Where Kipu Health falls short
- Quote-based pricing with no transparency — estimated $600-10,000+/mo
- Overkill for outpatient solo or small practices
- Complex implementation timeline
- Treatment plan module has a learning curve per user reviews
Where Weave falls short
- NOT an EHR or practice management system — it's a communication layer on top of your existing software
- Starting at $249/mo plus $750 setup makes it expensive for what it does
- Scheduling and digital forms locked behind Elite tier
- No telehealth or clinical features at all
