Looking for a Supanote alternative?
If you want typed notes and no recording, plus worksheets and session prep in the same workflow, Reframe is the better fit.
This is mainly about whether you want audio-first notes or a typed-notes-first workflow that extends into worksheets and prep.
Audio notes with EHR autofill
Reframe Practice
Decision rule
Choose the tool that matches the job you need this week, not the tool with the most features on paper.
The bigger question is whether you want audio-first documentation or a typed-notes workflow that extends into client-facing work.
Supanote records and fills your EHR. Reframe starts with typed notes, then moves into worksheets or session prep from the same case.

Supanote publicly presents HIPAA compliance and BAA availability. This comparison is about workflow shape and pricing, not pretending every therapist should make the same documentation tradeoff.
Choose Supanote if
You want to record sessions and have notes generated from the audio.
Super Fill into your EHR is a must-have -- it saves real time if your EHR is supported.
Your main pain point is documentation speed, and you are comfortable with in-session recording.
Choose Reframe if
You do not want recordings in the room.
You want the same case to move from the note into a worksheet or session prep.
You want 10 free typed notes with no account first, and $29/mo for the rest of the workflow instead of $90/mo.
Good. You should be skeptical.
Most therapists who shop for AI tools start in a defensive crouch. Audio-recording tools sit awkwardly with informed-consent ethics. Audio transcription introduces hallucination risk that the clinician then has to audit. Generic chatbots store everything you paste into them. And the marketing copy across the category sounds like every product was built by the same person.
Reframe was built by a therapist who carries the same skepticism. The text-input design is a direct response to the consent problem. The zero-retention architecture is a direct response to the storage problem. The mental-health-specific scope is a direct response to the “built for everyone, fits no one” problem.
You do not need to take that on faith. The product has a free entry point (10 notes per month, no account). Try it on a hypothetical case before you trust it with a real one.
What is the best Supanote alternative for therapists?
The best Supanote alternative for therapists who do not want to record sessions is Reframe Practice. Reframe takes a 2-3 sentence text summary and produces a structured progress note in SOAP, DAP, BIRP, GIRP, or PIRP format. There is no audio capture, no transcription, and no EHR-autofill dependency.
The two products solve different shapes of the documentation question. Supanote is built around audio capture plus Super Fill EHR autofill — for clinicians who want recording as the primary input and direct field-level integration. Reframe is built specifically for clinicians who want text input and who view recording as adding more clinical and ethical surface area than it removes.
Surveys of private-practice clinicians consistently put documentation time near the top of the burnout list, with median reports of 15-30 minutes per session note when typed from scratch. Both products target that documentation burden. They differ on whether the path runs through audio + autofill or through a focused text-input workflow that bridges into worksheet and session prep.
What is the best Supanote alternative for therapists?
For therapists who do not want recording in the room, Reframe. Typed notes first, then bridge into worksheet or session prep for the same case. No audio capture, no transcription, no EHR-autofill dependency.
What is the difference between Supanote and Reframe?
Supanote records sessions and generates notes with EHR autofill via Super Fill. Reframe starts with typed notes, then lets you turn the same case into a worksheet or session prep without any recording.
Should I switch from Supanote to Reframe?
Switch if you prefer typed notes with no recording and you want worksheets and session prep built into the same workflow. Stay with Supanote if audio-based notes and EHR autofill are the main job.
Is Reframe HIPAA-compliant?
Yes. Reframe uses Google Vertex AI under a Business Associate Agreement and processes inputs in-memory without server-side retention.
How does Reframe pricing compare to Supanote?
Supanote starts at $29.99/mo for 40 notes, scaling to $89.99/mo for unlimited. Reframe gives 10 free typed notes per month with no account required, then $29/mo for unlimited worksheets, session prep, and thinking partner while progress notes stay free after signup.
Does Reframe autofill an EHR like Super Fill?
No. EHR autofill is part of Supanote’s product scope and is not part of Reframe. If Super Fill is central to how you document, Supanote may still be the right tool.
Can I use Supanote and Reframe together?
Yes. Some clinicians use Supanote for audio-based documentation and Reframe for worksheets or session prep. The two tools handle different parts of the clinical workflow.
Why does the no-recording angle matter for therapists?
For some therapists, it means fewer consent conversations and simpler logistics. For others, it is just a better clinical fit. The point is not that recording is wrong. It is that Reframe is built for therapists who prefer to type.
Is this a direct replacement?
Not exactly. Supanote does more around audio recording and EHR autofill. Reframe is a different workflow: typed notes first, then worksheets or session prep from the same case.
Start with the note.
Then move into worksheet or prep only when the case calls for it.
