When to choose PsyFi (GPT + Scribe)
- You're behavioral-health-only and want AI built for that scope (not a generalist tool with a mental-health checkbox)
- You need citable RAG over peer-reviewed psychology references — not multi-specialty clinical lookups
- Microsoft Presidio PHI de-identification with tenant-level enforcement matters to you
- You want BAA, encryption, and hosting details disclosed plainly on the public pages
- Modality-aware drafting (CBT, DBT, EMDR) is in scope for your documentation
- You prefer lower entry pricing ($10 – $60/mo) over Heidi's $40 – $150/user/mo paid range
When to choose Heidi Health
- Your practice spans specialties (mental health plus family medicine, nursing, allied health, dentistry, vet, etc.) and you want one tool
- You need transcription in 110+ languages for a multilingual patient population
- A free indefinite tier (unlimited basic dictation + 10 Pro Actions/mo) is attractive for low-volume usage
- You're evaluating a vendor with recent $65M Series B funding and a $465M valuation
- You want a wearable hardware option (Heidi "Remote") for in-room recording
- 14-day trial vs 7-day matters
Frequently Asked Questions
Heidi lists Mental Health as one of eight specialties it serves, alongside Family Medicine, Medical Specialists, Nurses, Allied Health, Dentists, Veterinarians, and Trainees. It can produce therapy documentation, but its templates and clinical-reference content span all of those specialties. PsyFi is built only for behavioral health: SOAP/DAP templates and modality-aware drafting (CBT, DBT, EMDR) ship out of the box, and RAG citations come from peer-reviewed psychology sources. If you're a single-specialty mental-health practice, that focus is the relevant difference.
Yes. Heidi rebranded their plans in February 2026. The Clinician plan (closest equivalent to the previous "Pro") moved to $150/user/month billed annually, up from $90/month. Evidence Plus debuted at $40/user/month, and Practice (with EHR integrations) at $99/user/month. The free tier remains, capped at 10 "Pro Actions" per month. PsyFi's individual plans stayed at $10 / $30 / $60.
Heidi's public HIPAA compliance page references "Business Associate Agreements (BAAs)" as a section header and confirms US data residency ("All data locally hosted within the United States"). It does not detail which plan tiers include the BAA and does not specify encryption methodology or hosting provider on that page — users are directed to the Trust Center for further details. PsyFi discloses BAA-on-every-paid-plan, AWS us-east-1 hosting, TLS 1.2+ and AES-256 encryption, and Microsoft Presidio de-identification plainly on its security page.
Not today. PsyFi Scribe's transcription engine ships with English support; additional languages are on the roadmap. If you regularly document in non-English sessions, Heidi's 110+ language support is the relevant differentiator.
PsyFiGPT Pro is $30/month with 200 requests/day, RAG citations, and PsyFi Scribe transcription included. Heidi Clinician is $150/user/month billed annually ($1,800/year) for the closest equivalent feature set. Heidi's free tier offers unlimited basic dictation but caps Pro Actions at 10/month, which limits clinical AI use. For a solo behavioral-health clinician documenting daily, PsyFi Pro is approximately one-fifth the annual cost of Heidi Clinician.
No. Per Heidi's published pricing, native EHR sync is gated to the Practice tier ($99/user/month) and Enterprise. Evidence Plus and Clinician tiers do not include EHR integrations — you copy/paste notes into your EHR. PsyFi Scribe ships a SimplePractice browser-extension integration that pushes content into SimplePractice without a separate tier upgrade; broader EHR integrations are on the roadmap.
AI-generated clinical documentation should always be reviewed and approved by a licensed clinician before use in billing, legal, or clinical records. Both PsyFi and Heidi are tools to assist drafting; the clinician remains responsible for the final content.
