The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Techcyte regulatory status runs the opposite way to what most buyers assume: the products are CE marked and clinically deployed in Europe while several United States offerings including Fusion Parasitology are labelled research use only and not for diagnostic use, so an American laboratory must verify each module individually.; TherapyNotes no API access, preventing integration with external systems
  • They diverge on capability: Techcyte covers Fusion Parasitology Suite, TherapyNotes covers Electronic Health Records.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Techcyte

  • Regulatory status runs the opposite way to what most buyers assume: the products are CE marked and clinically deployed in Europe while several United States offerings including Fusion Parasitology are labelled research use only and not for diagnostic use, so an American laboratory must verify each module individually.
  • Slide scanning for parasitology, haematology and cytology needs multi plane imaging that a histology scanner may not produce, so a laboratory that already owns a scanner often has to buy new hardware, which becomes the biggest line in the project.
  • Each discipline is licensed separately, so a laboratory wanting parasitology, urinalysis and haematology assembles three modules and three validation studies rather than buying one platform.
  • AI pre screening does not remove the need for a qualified reviewer to release results, so the staffing saving is in review time per slide, not in headcount, and business cases that assume otherwise do not hold.
  • Techcyte covers a very wide set of disciplines, which means depth varies between them, and the maturity of a newer module is not the maturity of the parasitology or cytology products that made the company its name.

TherapyNotes

  • No API access, preventing integration with external systems
  • Outdated interface compared to AI-driven competitors
  • No native mobile app for iOS or Android
  • No bulk actions to update multiple sessions at once

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Techcyte: Is Techcyte FDA cleared?

Not uniformly. Several United States offerings, including the Fusion Parasitology Suite, are labelled research use only and not for diagnostic use in the United States. Check the regulatory status of each specific module for your country before purchase.

TherapyNotes: Does TherapyNotes integrate with other applications?

TherapyNotes has zero API availability and cannot connect to external systems including marketing platforms, CRMs, or data dashboards. Unlike competitors, it lacks integration capabilities.

Source
Techcyte: Can we use it clinically in Europe?

Techcyte solutions are CE marked and clinically deployed across Europe, which is where its regulatory position is strongest. Confirm the current certificate for the specific module.

TherapyNotes: What are TherapyNotes pricing plans?

TherapyNotes charges $69/month for a solo practitioner plan and $79/month for the first clinician in a group with $50/month per additional clinician. A 30-day free trial is included with every plan.

Source
Techcyte: Does it eliminate the need for a technologist?

No. AI pre screens and prioritises, but a qualified reviewer still releases results. The saving is in review time per slide.

TherapyNotes: Does TherapyNotes include telehealth?

Yes. TherapyNotes includes Basic Telehealth at no extra cost on every plan, with standard-definition video for up to 2 participants. Premium Telehealth with full HD, screen sharing, and closed captions costs $15 per clinician per month.

Source
Techcyte: Do we need a specific scanner?

Techcyte works with several scanner vendors, but disciplines such as parasitology and haematology need multi plane imaging that many histology scanners cannot produce, so confirm hardware compatibility early.
