Blueprint vs Heidi Health
Which AI Assistant Is Built for Therapy?

AI documentation tools are becoming increasingly popular, but many were designed for general medical settings, not the nuanced realities of therapy. Heidi Health is an Australia-based AI medical scribe used across multiple specialties, including mental health. While it includes features for therapists, its generalist approach may not fully align with the needs of U.S.-based mental health clinicians. Blueprint was built specifically for mental health to automate documentation while seamlessly tracking goals, highlighting progress, and supporting continuity from session to session.

Key Differences That Matter

Built for Therapy, Not Just Healthcare

Blueprint was designed specifically for mental health. Its workflows, tone, and templates reflect the actual therapeutic process, not just general documentation needs. Heidi Health supports a wide range of providers. While it can be used for therapy, it wasn’t built with therapists as the primary user.

Goal Tracking and Treatment Planning

With Blueprint, you can build treatment plans that automatically capture progress toward plan goals, keeping progress visible over time. While Heidi Health has treatment plan templates, they don’t appear to automate goal linking, so continuity must be tracked manually.

Clinical Support When You Need It

Blueprint offers built-in, personalized recommendations for clinician-curated assessments, interventions, and digital homework. Heidi Health doesn’t include clinical prompts or guidance during the documentation process.

Flexible Recording with Fewer Issues

Both tools support dictation and recap-style input, but therapists have reported that Heidi’s transcript generation can be inconsistent, especially for longer sessions or when the wrong microphone is selected. Blueprint supports both full-session and recap recordings, with therapist-friendly defaults and stable performance that make recording easy and reliable.

Built for U.S. Insurance Documentation

Blueprint was designed in the U.S. with payor expectations in mind, making it easier to stay aligned with what insurance companies are looking for. Heidi Health is based in Australia. It's unclear if the documentation is aligned with U.S. payors, and additional editing may be required to meet compliance standards.

Therapist-Centered Support

Blueprint includes live onboarding, chat, and email support from a team that works exclusively with mental health clinicians. Heidi Health offers chat and email, but no live onboarding, and less therapist-specific guidance.

Choosing the Right Fit

Heidi Health is a flexible AI scribe used across healthcare and may work well for general practitioners. But for therapists, it can require more customization, may lack key mental health features, and many have reported reliability issues.

Blueprint is therapy-specific, built for U.S. clinicians, and includes everything from treatment plans to clinical suggestions in a workflow designed to save time while supporting continuity of care. If you're looking for a tool that’s aligned with the flow of your sessions, Blueprint may be a better fit.
