TherapyNotes vs ClinikEHR 2027: Pricing, AI Notes & Features Compared

Quick Answer: ClinikEHR vs TherapyNotes

ClinikEHR wins for most modern practices. While TherapyNotes is a solid, reliable platform, ClinikEHR offers better value with AI-powered clinical notes, a modern interface, E-Lab ordering as an add-on, and transparent pricing: a Free plan, then Essential at $99.90/month with AI notes included for up to 3 clinicians. We couldn't verify TherapyNotes' current prices in September 2026 (its pricing page was unreadable to us), so check its pricing page, and ask whether AI note-taking is available and what it costs.

Beyond the EHR: AI Agents, ClinikMail and ClinikReach

A practice runs on more than charts. It needs an inbox, a way to bring patients back, and someone to chase the follow-ups nobody has time for. Most practices buy those separately — an email host, an email-marketing tool, an automation service — and connect them by hand. In ClinikEHR they're part of the same account, on the same patient record, under the same access rules.

AI Agent Studio: automation you build without code

• What agents do: appointment reminders, confirmations, reschedules, no-show follow-ups and waitlist fills across email, SMS and voice, plus intake, consent, CRM follow-ups, patient summaries and claims preparation
• How you build them: a drag-and-drop canvas (Start, Agent, Tool, Logic, Data, Human approval, End) with templates to start from — test a draft, then publish a versioned agent, no engineers needed
• Safe with patient data: patient data is de-identified before any model sees it, requests go only to BAA-covered, zero-retention model endpoints, every run is audited, and risky actions (sending PHI, submitting a claim, charging a card) wait for a human approval
• Your choice of model: Claude, GPT or Gemini, chosen per agent
• What it costs: each successful run uses credits, and every plan includes monthly credits — 50 on Free, 2,500 on Essential, 5,000 on Team — with per-agent budgets so there's no surprise bill (text and voice need a dedicated number, US/Canada, $15/month)

ClinikMail: clinic email on your own domain, linked to the chart

• Real mailboxes on your clinic's domain, set up with a guided DNS wizard — or a clinikmail.com address that's ready immediately
• Shared inboxes like reception@ with thread assignment, so two people never answer the same patient
• Link a thread to a patient and it lands on their timeline, next to the chart it belongs to
• Mail is private to your clinic, behind two-factor sign-in, with every read written to the audit trail
• A spam filter that shows its reasons; uncertain mail is delivered with a caution label instead of hidden
• Works with Gmail, Apple Mail or Outlook over IMAP, with a separate, revocable app password per device
• Included: 3 mailboxes and 5 GB on Free; 25 mailboxes, 50 GB and 3 custom domains on Essential; 50 mailboxes, 120 GB and 10 custom domains on Team

ClinikReach: email marketing measured in booked appointments

• Recall campaigns, newsletters and welcome journeys built from your own patient and contact list — for example, everyone not seen in 18 months
• Consent handled the way clinics need: you choose whether a send is a newsletter, a patient recall or a promotion, it's recorded on the campaign, and unsubscribes are honoured at the moment of sending
• Send stays locked until a checklist is complete — audience, sender, subject, unsubscribe link, working links, filled merge tags and a test to your own inbox
• Reports lead with how many people booked an appointment afterwards, not with opens
• Contacts are unlimited on every plan; you're metered only on sends — 500 a month on Free, 12,000 on Essential, 60,000 on Team

What this means for your comparison

When you price TherapyNotes, add whatever you pay today for business email, an email-marketing tool and workflow automation (Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, a newsletter service, an automation app) unless TherapyNotes's plan already covers them. With ClinikEHR, those are inside the plan price, and they work on the same patient record under the same access rules as the chart.

ClinikEHR's E-Lab add-on ($6 per request + $500 setup) lets you order labs from the platform and keep them on the patient's chart. It doesn't list a direct interface with a specific lab network, so confirm your lab's workflow with us. Check with TherapyNotes whether it offers lab ordering.
