Jane App is good at what a mature practice management platform should be good at.
Jane has been on the market for years, and most of that time has gone into polish. The interface is clean, the patient flow is smooth, and a new front desk hire usually picks it up without a training day. A fair list of where Jane is the better answer:
- Multi-disciplinary breadth. Jane was built to serve chiropractic, massage therapy, naturopathy, acupuncture, and counseling alongside occupational therapy, physical therapy, and speech-language pathology. If your group practice runs more than one care discipline under the same roof, that breadth is an advantage.
- Private pay and online booking. The cash-pay flow on Jane is one of the cleanest in the category. Package billing, online booking widgets that drop into any website, credit card on file. Direct-bill clinics in the US and the original Canadian customer base both tend to like the front-of-house experience.
- Patient-facing UX and integrated telehealth. A modern patient portal, smooth telehealth video built into the platform, well-tuned appointment confirmation and reminder flows. Patients tend to find Jane pleasant to use. MyTherapyWizard does not currently ship integrated telehealth, so a practice that wants telehealth as part of the EMR will see Jane's built-in video as a real plus.
- Brand maturity and ecosystem. Years of integration partners. Payment processors, marketing tools, online booking widgets, an active third-party developer community. If you want to plug Jane into an existing stack, the connectors usually exist.
- Solo and small practice ergonomics. Jane is straightforward to set up for a single clinician or a two or three person practice. Pricing is predictable at small scale.
If your practice is mostly cash pay, your documentation is shorthand SOAP notes, and you want a clean front of house, Jane is a real choice for that profile.
MyTherapyWizard is therapy EMR software with the clinical science built in.
Most therapy EMRs are documentation tools. The clinician charts, the system stores, and at the end of the quarter the practice has a pile of unstructured narrative. MyTherapyWizard works the other way around. The clinical work generates structured data, and the system uses that data to do the documentation work clinicians used to do at night.
- Goal level performance capture. Every session captures correct out of attempted, cues, level of assistance, and mastery for each goal you wrote. About fifteen seconds per goal. The result is a Goal Performance Index and Session Performance Index for every active goal in your caseload. Jane has a generic outcome survey. It does not collect goal-level performance data.
- RTI data as a natural output. Because measurement is structured at the goal level, response-to-intervention data falls out of normal sessions. School districts ask for this. Value-based care payers ask for this. The question is going to come up more often. Jane has no comparable output.
- Auto-generated clinical documentation. Plans of care, evaluation reports, progress reports, quarterly summaries. The numbers under the goals do the writing, and the clinician edits. New graduates produce documentation that reads like a senior therapist wrote it. Jane leaves the writing to the clinician.
- Discipline-aware, not generalist. The eval templates, the goal bank, and the standardized assessment library are shaped for occupational therapy, physical therapy, speech-language pathology, and mental health specifically. An OT evaluation looks like an OT evaluation. A speech evaluation looks like a speech evaluation. Jane uses a single SOAP-style template across every discipline it serves, which is the trade-off of generalist design.
- Audience-aware documentation. A plan of care written for an insurance reviewer reads differently from one written for an IEP team. MyTherapyWizard tunes the language by audience, medical or educational. Jane treats both the same.
- School-based therapy and IEP-ready output. Educational audience documentation, multi-site district management, contract invoicing. RTI data is a natural byproduct of the measurement system. Jane is not built for school work.
- Clinical workflow lifecycle. The Teams tier includes a 10-stage configurable clinical lifecycle, billing readiness scoring across the org, per-stage workday deadlines, and service-stop, hold, and insurance change propagation through the chart. Jane has scheduling and a chart.
- You learn your field, not just document it. After a quarter of normal use you can see which goals progress fastest at which baseline scores, which interventions correlate with mastery, and where denials cluster by payer and CPT. Most clinicians have wished for this view their whole careers. Most EMRs were not built to produce it.
- Built by a working clinician, used across the lifespan. MyTherapyWizard is designed and built by Stephanie Wick, OT/L, MSOT, an occupational therapist with 25 years of clinical experience and a practicing clinic owner. The architecture supports therapy across the lifespan: pediatric, adult outpatient, geriatric, school-based, and mental health. Every feature has to pass the test of whether a real therapist would actually use it on a Monday morning.
- FERPA-aligned data privacy and 1EdTech certification. MyTherapyWizard holds 1EdTech TrustEd Apps Data Privacy Certification (Registration IMSP1ls2026W1, certified April 2026), the third-party privacy review that school district IT and procurement teams typically require before signing a contract. Jane App does not currently hold this certification, which matters for therapy practices working under school contracts or with educational agencies.
- Deliberate focus, not EMR bloat. MyTherapyWizard ships the practice management tools a therapy clinic needs and the clinical intelligence that makes documentation defensible. We do not ship integrated telehealth, a patient portal, ePrescribe, or card-on-file payments. Those features quietly drive subscription costs up across the category, and a therapy practice can run cleanly with the video and payment tools it already uses.
The practice management basics show up in both products.
If you only need a calendar, a chart, and a way to send claims, either platform handles it. Both products cover the practice management essentials a therapy clinic depends on day to day.
- HIPAA compliance. Both platforms are HIPAA compliant and offer signed BAAs.
- Multi-clinician scheduling. Recurring appointments, waitlists, and multi-provider calendars on both. Jane's scheduling UX has been polished for years; MyTherapyWizard's is functional and clinically aware.
- Online intake forms and digital consents. Both handle digital intake and e-signature for consent forms.
- Appointment reminders. Jane ships SMS and email reminders. MyTherapyWizard ships email reminders. Practices that need SMS specifically should factor that in.
- Insurance claim submission and ERA posting. MyTherapyWizard does this through ClaimMD, included with the platform. Jane sells insurance billing as a separate add-on at roughly $20 a month plus per-practitioner fees on top of the base plan.
- Patient portal and online payment. Jane ships a patient portal and integrated card-on-file payments. MyTherapyWizard does not ship either, by design. Practices that need a patient-facing portal and integrated payments will see this as a real plus on the Jane side.
Past these basics the products diverge. The decision comes down to what your practice needs on top of the calendar and the chart.
