Plus — $99/month base plus approx $59/month per additional clinician monthly
Pros & Cons
Nutrium
Pros
Purpose-built specifically for nutrition professionals rather than adapted from generic EHR software
Combines meal planning, telehealth, scheduling and billing in a single subscription
Client-facing mobile app improves engagement and communication between sessions
Both pricing tiers include the full feature set, so practitioners aren't forced to pay more just to unlock features
Well-funded and established company (founded 2015, $19.8M raised) with a large existing user base
Cons
No permanently free plan, only a 14-day trial before payment is required
Pricing is tied to client volume, so costs rise as a practice grows past 10 clients on the lower tier
Monthly billing is notably more expensive than annual billing, which requires an upfront commitment for the best rate
Feature depth in areas like insurance billing may be more limited than region-specific competitors
As a practice-specific tool, it lacks broader general-purpose EHR capabilities some multi-specialty clinics may need
SimplePractice
Pros
Purpose-built specifically for therapists and health and wellness professionals
Combines scheduling, telehealth, documentation, and billing in one platform
Large, established user base of over 225,000 practitioners
HIPAA-compliant telehealth is built in rather than requiring a separate tool
Free trial with a discount available for early sign-up on a paid plan
Cons
Pricing rises meaningfully for group practices with per-clinician fees on top of the base plan
Some advanced billing and insurance features are limited to higher-tier plans
Ownership changes (EngageSmart, then Vista Equity Partners) may raise questions for long-term customers about product direction
Learning curve for clinicians unfamiliar with EHR software
Primarily built around US insurance and compliance workflows, limiting fit for practices outside the United States
