Honest comparison

How TherapyConnectData compares to CentralReach, Catalyst & Hi Rasmus

An honest side-by-side. We don't try to win every category: competitors have features and integrations we don't. We win where it matters most: the AI plans you generate are grounded in one expert clinician's 24 years of real cases, not generic literature.

Where this difference matters

Every AI tool in our category trains on the same thing: published ABA literature, VB-MAPP manuals, ESDM textbooks. The output is theoretically sound and generic. Two clinics in different cities serving different families get the same templated recommendations.

Our AI is grounded in Dr. Daniel Quiñones's actual evaluation history: 24 years of real cases across Mexico and the United States. Every treatment plan you generate builds on the principles, protocols and sequencing patterns he has applied in real practice. That's not just "AI-powered". That's clinician-grounded.

650+real cases
500+real evaluations
2,000+named protocols
3,600+clinical heuristics
24years of practice

Where competitors win

CentralReach is the right choice if your top need is insurance billing automation and you have an existing claims operation. Their billing engine is industry-leading. Their AI features are wrappers around generic LLMs, but their billing is real.
Catalyst is a strong fit for large multi-site ABA clinics that need staff management, training tracking and integrated payroll. They've been doing it for 15+ years; we don't try to compete in HR/scheduling depth.
Hi Rasmus is solid for session-note transcription and quick documentation. Their AI is productivity-focused rather than clinically grounded, but if you just need notes faster, they're well-built.

When to pick TherapyConnectData

Pick us if you want clinical AI you can actually trust: output you can show a supervisor and trace back to real cases. Pick us if you serve Spanish-speaking or bilingual families (we're the only platform in the category built bilingually from day one). Pick us if you're a solo clinician or small clinic where billing automation isn't the bottleneck and clinical decision support is. Pick us if you're a parent leading your own child's therapy: no other platform supports that workflow. Pick us if you'd value an initial consultation with Dr. Quiñones (90 minutes, $229 USD), a clinician with 24 years of practice, when you need one.
