PsyFi vs Heidi Health
Heidi is a heavily funded, multi-specialty AI scribe used across general medicine — family medicine, nursing, allied health, dentistry, and mental health among them. PsyFi is behavioral-health-only, and it's a suite rather than a scribe: ambient session notes plus a HIPAA-aligned AI assistant and psychological report writing.
PsyFi is published by PsyFi Technologies. Heidi figures come from heidihealth.com public pages and reported pricing as of July 2026 — Heidi's US pricing is not fully published, so verify current details with the vendor.

When Heidi is the better fit
- Your organization spans specialties and wants one scribe vendor for medicine, nursing, and allied health together.
- You want a free tier for occasional, basic dictation before committing.
- Multi-specialty clinical reference lookups matter more to you than psychology-specific guidance.
When PsyFi is the better fit
- You're a therapist or psychologist and want AI built for that work — not a generalist with a mental-health checkbox.
- You need plainly stated terms before touching PHI: PsyFi's BAA, de-identification pipeline, and hosting are published on every plan.
- You do testing — assessment parsing and report drafting are in the Psychologist plan; no scribe offers them.
- Predictable pricing: $19–$99 flat vs reported $99–$150/user/month. Figures as of July 2026.
FAQ
Common questions
What does Heidi actually cost?
As of July 2026, Heidi offers a free tier for basic use, and its paid US pricing is not fully published — reported figures put paid tiers at roughly $99–$150 per user per month. Treat those numbers as indicative and get a current quote from the vendor. PsyFi's pricing is published: $19, $49, and $99 monthly plans, and $59/seat for practices.
Does Heidi sign a BAA?
Heidi references BAAs in its compliance materials, but per-plan availability isn't clearly published on its public pages as of July 2026 — ask the vendor directly which tier includes one. PsyFi includes a BAA on every paid plan.
Can Heidi write psychological evaluation reports?
No — Heidi is a visit-documentation scribe. PsyFi's Psychologist plan parses assessment score reports into tables you verify, then drafts psychological and psychoeducational report sections in your voice.
Is a multi-specialty scribe worse for therapy notes?
Not automatically — Heidi's templates are customizable and many mental-health clinicians use it happily. The practical difference is depth: PsyFi's drafting is modality-aware for therapy, its assistant answers psychology questions with citations, and its report writer handles psych assessments. If your work is all behavioral health, specificity compounds.
Who reviews the AI's output?
You do — with either product. AI-drafted documentation should always be reviewed and approved by the licensed clinician before it enters a clinical, billing, or legal record.
