General AI vs Dedicated: What to Choose for Therapy?
There are dozens of AI tools on the market. What should you choose for documenting therapy sessions — a general solution or a specialized one? Let's explore the pros and cons.
General AI vs Specialized
General AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini) are versatile but don't know clinical formats, don't store patient history, and don't provide specialized security for health data. Specialized solutions like Illumate are designed for the therapy workflow: structured formats, patient knowledge base, encryption, and guardrails.
Verdict
For therapy practice, a specialized solution saves more time, provides better note quality, and doesn't compromise patient data security.
