Mentalyc is a therapy-first AI scribe that later added psychiatric templates. JotPsych is the operating system for behavioral health: notes, e-prescribing, scheduling, telehealth, billing, and credentialing in one platform, with the prescriber workflow (intakes, medication management, TMS, Spravato) built in. Start alongside the EHR you use today in five minutes, or replace it entirely on your timeline. From $53/mo for the full prescriber workflow and platform, versus Mentalyc's note-only $39.99 Basic.
Most tools do one job and stop. JotPsych runs the whole behavioral health practice: it knows where the money goes, protects every claim, grows with every hire, and coaches every clinician. From the first intake to the paycheck.
Every encounter tracked from scheduled to paid. JotPsych flags the unbilled visit, the undercoded note, the denied claim, and the receivable aging past 60 days, then shows you how to fix it.
Every note and claim scanned against 150+ payer rules and the latest audit standards before you sign. Clawbacks and denials caught while they are still fixable.
Onboard a new clinician in minutes. Documentation and coding stay sharp and uniform at every seat, so quality and revenue scale with you, not against you.
JotCoach reads every note your team writes, flags what to fix and why, and develops every clinician, like you are in the room without being in the room.
Notes, e-prescribing, scheduling, telehealth, billing, and credentialing in one system that talks to itself, instead of seven vendors that do not.
Psychiatric intakes, medication management, TMS and Spravato, the 99214 and the 90833 add-on, e-prescribing with PDMP. The prescriber workflow native, alongside the therapy hour.
Most scribes stop at the note. JotPsych runs the whole practice. Add it to the EHR you use today with no migration and write your first note in five minutes, then make it your entire system when you are ready, on your timeline. One platform for any behavioral health practice.

Mentalyc is a credible therapy-first scribe with real depth for talk-therapy documentation. If therapy volume is the majority of your work, it brings a broad note library (100+ custom templates including GIRP, PIE, SIRP, PIRP)(DeepCura, Mentalyc review), the Alliance Genie therapeutic-relationship tracker with no direct equivalent(Mentalyc Alliance Genie page), and a strong compliance posture with SOC 2 Type II and PHIPA/PIPEDA certification(Mentalyc security page). For a prescribing practice, that template breadth does not replace the e-prescribing, billing, and med management tools JotPsych is built around.

"Support is virtually non-existent. The instructions have been unhelpful... I haven't been able to use this program since I subscribed two weeks ago."
Lisa T., LCSW, Capterra review"That it freezes my computer after every single recording! The outrageous monthly price tag. I emailed customer support when I first purchased the program and never received a response."
Diana M., Associate Marriage and Family Therapist, Capterra review"I'm only getting about 60% of my actual sessions being recorded properly. Tech support has not been helpful..."
