TherapyNotes Is a Solid EHR. But It Won't Write Your Notes for You.
AI documentation, on-device privacy, and worksheet generation. The features TherapyNotes hasn't built.

TherapyNotes Organizes Your Records. You Still Create Every One.
TherapyNotes has been a reliable EHR for years. Good note templates. Solid billing. Dependable uptime.
But it's fundamentally a record-keeping system. You create the records. You type the notes. You fill in the templates. You search for assessments. You assign worksheets manually.
Mediyn automates the creation. AI writes the note. AI generates the worksheet. 200+ assessments auto-score and track trends. The platform does the work. You do the therapy.

What TherapyNotes Doesn't Offer
1. AI Documentation — Notes That Write Themselves
TherapyNotes gives you structured templates. Better than a blank page. But you still fill in every field for every session.
Mediyn records your session, redacts PHI on your device, and delivers a complete clinical note. 98%+ transcription accuracy. Trained on therapeutic conversations and DSM-5 terminology. Notes that sound like you wrote them.
2. On-Device Processing — A Different Privacy Architecture
TherapyNotes encrypts data in transit and at rest. Standard practice. Important.
Mediyn goes further: raw session recordings are processed and de-identified on your device before anything reaches the cloud. Patent-pending technology. No other EHR — TherapyNotes included — processes session data this way.
For therapists working with sensitive populations (trauma survivors, minors, high-profile patients), this isn't a nice-to-have. It's the standard you should expect.
3. Online Booking — Stop Giving Out Your Phone Number
TherapyNotes doesn't offer public online booking. Patients call or email to schedule.
Mediyn provides a public booking page at book.mediyn.com/[your-handle]. Patients see your availability. They book. Intake forms send automatically. You approve. No phone tag. No back-and-forth emails.
Pricing Comparison
