OptimisPT vs WebPT (2026): which should you pick?

Pick OptimisPT if

• Fits if you run a PT, OT or speech therapy clinic
• Works for clinics that want AI-written notes in the same system as billing

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you want a price before a demo
• Not for you if you offer counselling or mental health care, as those workflows aren't listed
• Tight if you want a free plan or a trial, as neither is advertised
• Watch out: a staffing network is part of the offer, and nothing is said about what it costs

Pick WebPT if

• Fits if you run a physical or occupational therapy clinic
• Makes sense if you want billing built for rehab

Look elsewhere if

• Pricey if you are a small clinic: plans run $79 to $249 per provider a month
• Not for you if you do mental health or primary care, as it is built for rehab
• Watch out: tiers and what they include need a call with sales
• Skip it if you want to try first, as no free plan or trial is listed

OptimisPT

• No prices are published; a demo request is the way to get a quote.
• No free plan or self-serve trial is advertised.
• It targets rehab therapy and does not list counseling or mental health workflows.

WebPT

• Only a price range ($79 to $249 per provider a month) is published; the tiers and what each includes require talking to sales.
• It is built for rehab therapy, so a mental health or primary care practice would be using a poor fit.
• No free plan or free trial is listed; the pricing page asks visitors to book a demo.
