The Difference

SimplePractice made admin digital. You're still doing all of it.

SimplePractice is a solid practice management tool. Scheduling, billing, intake forms — it handles the basics well. Thousands of therapists use it for good reason.

But here's what it doesn't do: write your notes, generate your worksheets, or protect your session recordings with on-device processing.

Mediyn takes a fundamentally different approach. AI handles the documentation. On-device redaction handles the privacy. You handle the therapy.

Key Differences

Three things SimplePractice can't do.

1. AI Documentation — Stop typing notes at 9 PM

SimplePractice gives you blank note templates. You fill them in. Every session. Every day. Mediyn records your session, strips PHI on your device, and generates a complete clinical note. You review and approve in 2-3 minutes.

Time saved: 4-6 hours per week. That's 7+ additional patient sessions — or your evenings back.

2. On-Device PHI Redaction — Your recordings, your device

SimplePractice processes data on their servers. Mediyn's patent-pending technology redacts all 18 HIPAA identifier categories directly on your device. Raw session audio never reaches our cloud.

3. AI Worksheet Generation — Not a template library

SimplePractice worksheets are static templates. Mediyn generates personalized worksheets from your session content and the patient's latest assessment scores. Every worksheet is unique to that patient, that session, that moment in treatment.

Testimonials

What SimplePractice switchers say.

I used SimplePractice for three years. It's fine for scheduling and billing, but I was still spending my evenings writing notes. With Mediyn, the note is ready before my next client walks in. I gained back 5 hours a week.

Dr. Rachel M.

Licensed Psychologist, Private Practice

The on-device PHI redaction was the deciding factor. I was always uneasy about session recordings going to external servers. Mediyn processes everything locally. That plus the AI notes made the switch obvious.
