AfterSession vs Mente

AfterSession helps therapists, counselors, and coaches capture session notes quickly and securely — right from their iPhone or iPad. Your notes never leave your device. No cloud. No accounts. No tracking. Just a fast, private tool built for your practice. CAPTURE NOTES YOUR WAY Choose from built-in templates including Simple, CBT-Style, Coaching, SOAP, DAP, BIRP, Intake, Supervision, and EMDR — designed for real clinical workflows. Dictate notes hands-free with on-device voice recognition (Pro). Use Quick Notes to jot something down between sessions and assign it to a client later. Track session date, duration with a built-in timer, and client emotional state. Mark notes as Draft or Final when you're ready. SHARE AND DISCOVER TEMPLATES Create your own custom templates and share them with colleagues via AirDrop, Messages, or email. Receive a shared template and import it with one tap. Build a library of templates tailored to your specialty. ORGANIZE YOUR PRACTICE Each client gets their own space with color-coded avatars, tags, and pinning. View session history at a glance with date and status indicators. Search across all your notes instantly to find what you need. YOUR PRIVACY COMES FIRST All data stays on your device — nothing is uploaded anywhere. Lock the app with Face ID or Touch ID. iOS file-level encryption protects your data when the device is locked. Use initials or aliases for client names for an extra layer of privacy. Zero analytics. Zero third-party SDKs.

Mente is made for psychologists and psychotherapists in private practice. It keeps your schedule, session notes, treatment plans, client documents and payments in one app on your iPhone or iPad. No account needed, and client records are never stored on our servers. YOUR DAY IN ONE VIEW Open Mente to see today's sessions on a timeline, with breaks and free time marked. Today's priorities shows what's still open: sessions to prepare for, notes to finish, tasks and unpaid sessions. Schedule one-off or recurring sessions, and Mente suggests free times that fit your working hours. BEFORE AND AFTER EACH SESSION Before a session, read your last note, current objectives, recent life events and the next steps you agreed on. Afterwards, write a structured note and turn next steps into tasks linked to the client's plan. EVERYTHING ABOUT A CLIENT IN ONE PLACE Each client has one record: contact details, sessions, notes, plans with their objectives, and tasks. Plans show how many objectives have been reached, so progress is easy to follow. With Mente Pro, the complete timeline lists everything in the order it happened, and you can search all of it. CLIENT DOCUMENTS, READY TO SHARE Mente includes three standard documents: • Privacy Notice • Professional Services Agreement • Client Intake and History Form Before a first session, share all three as one PDF. Mente fills them in on your device from the details you've saved, and you preview each PDF before sharing. The templates and preview are free. Mente Pro lets you edit clauses and fields, add ready-made intake sections for minors, couples and families, add your logo and services, create your own documents and restore earlier versions. Mente notes when a document was shared. It doesn't keep completed PDFs, client answers or signatures, and can't confirm receipt or signing. APPOINTMENT MESSAGES YOU SEND YOURSELF Write an appointment message, check it and send it from your own email or messaging app. Mente never sends anything by itself. With Mente Pro, save your own templates, get a reminder when it's time to send and keep a log of prepared messages (Mente doesn't store their text). You can also export sessions as .ics files, no sync required. YOUR DATA STAYS WITH YOU Your practice records stay on your iPhone or iPad. Sensitive data is encrypted and protected by your device's security hardware. Mente opens only with Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode, and locks again 30 seconds after you leave the app. Export a password-protected .mente backup, CSV tables or a client summary PDF at any time. Once a file leaves Mente, its safety depends on where you save or send it. FREE, WITH PRO WHEN YOU NEED MORE Free with no subscription and no time limit: client records, sessions, clinical notes, treatment plans, tasks, payment tracking, manual backups and the standard document templates. Mente Pro adds: • Session preparation and the complete timeline, with search • More note templates, your own templates and local reminders • Custom documents, your practice logo and version history • Optional encrypted iCloud backup, protected by a Recovery Key • Optional two-way sync with Apple Calendar • Your own message templates and a log of prepared messages If Mente Pro ends, your data stays on your device. Manual backup, restore and all free features keep working; iCloud backup pauses until you renew. Mente is a tool for administration and documentation. It does not diagnose, recommend treatment or provide emergency services.
