How Blether sits next to the alternatives.
Honest about where each tool fits. If you're running a UK private practice and want AI clinical notes plus the day-to-day stack in one place, here's how we measure up.
DIY stack
Blether vs going it alone
The default for most sole practitioners: Google Calendar, a Word template for notes, a spreadsheet for invoices, an encrypted email for intake. It works, until it really doesn't.
Blether
One place for everything, designed for how therapy actually works.
✓Dictate a 60-second summary, note is ready to approve
✓Invoices generate and send when the session ends
✓Practice-branded intake form, no scanning required
✓Reminders go out automatically, no-shows drop
✓Audit trail and soft delete. GDPR ready out of the box
The DIY stack
Functional, until the cracks start to show.
⏱Notes written after dinner, from memory
⏱Invoices built in a spreadsheet, chased manually
⏱Intake forms emailed as PDFs, printed, signed, lost
⏱Reminders sent by hand. Or not at all
⏱No audit trail, GDPR compliance on you to manage
