Named comparison
Corella vs Brevity, row by row.
Brevity is an Australian platform that spans NDIS and aged care, Support at Home included, with a price anyone can look up. It’s one of the few products that covers both of Corella’s markets, so the comparison is worth doing properly. Here it is, built from Brevity’s own pricing page, help centre and service agreement, and from Services Australia’s register. Where they’re ahead — and on Support at Home claiming they are — we say so.

| Where AI processes your data | Partial or gated: Assistive, and off until you switch it on Care Signals, client summaries, dictation and meeting summaries, with no AI tier. Text is processed by our AI provider in the United States under terms that prohibit training on customer content; speech is transcribed in the European Union, and your instance instructs that service to delete the recording and its copy of the text | Included: In Australia, in their contract Their March 2026 service agreement says AI features run in their own AWS environment in Australia, with no third-party AI provider, and that customer data isn't used to train any general-purpose model. If Australian-only processing is a requirement, theirs is written that way and ours is not |

Brevity’s pricing, product pages, service agreement and public help centre were checked on 26 September 2026, with Services Australia’s software list and the JASANZ register. Where we couldn’t confirm something from their public material, the note says so rather than assuming a gap. Products change — tell us if something here is out of date and we’ll fix it within a week. Brevity is a trademark of its owner; Corella is not affiliated with Brevity.
Where the models differ
Three differences that decide it.
Whose system is it?
Corella gives every provider its own isolated instance — its own database and subdomain, with your branding — so your records never share a database with another organisation's. Brevity's documents talk about each customer's “instance” too, but they don't publish whether that means a separate database or one shared system. For anyone holding health information it's a fair question to ask, and the answer is worth having in writing.
How the price counts
Brevity charges per client: $6.49 a month on the annual option or $6.99 month-to-month, billed for at least 10 clients, plus a setup fee whose amount isn't published (AUD ex GST, as published 26 September 2026). Corella charges per staff user: $19 a month with a $149 minimum, participant and family logins free and onboarding included. Which comes out lower depends on your ratio: more clients than staff tends to favour per-staff pricing, and several staff per client — supported independent living, say — tends to favour per-client pricing. Both prices are public, so run your own numbers.
Aged care, today
If Support at Home claiming, contribution statements and the monthly statement have to run through your software this quarter, Brevity is ahead: Services Australia lists them, and their tutorials show the whole cycle. Corella models the Support at Home funding lanes and charges the budget when an invoice is issued, but it doesn't claim from Services Australia or produce the statement yet. Ask us where that sits on a call and we'll answer straight.
When Brevity might fit you better
Fair is fair — there are honest reasons to choose them:
- You need Support at Home claiming now. Services Australia lists Brevity for Support at Home, and their tutorials cover claims, remittances, contribution statements and the monthly statement. Corella charges the budget when an invoice is issued, and stops there.
- Plan management is most of your work. OCR on provider invoices, live NDIS API and PACE sync, a participant app and banned-ABN checks go further than our plan-management lane.
- You deliver CHSP and report to DEX. Their CHSP page describes DEX reporting through an API connection.
- You need more connections. MYOB, QuickBooks and KeyPay as well as Xero, claiming through the NDIS API on their Enterprise plan, and their own API for tools such as Power BI. Corella has Xero and a payroll CSV.
- You want a certificate and onshore AI in writing. Their ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certificate is on the JASANZ register, and their contract keeps AI processing in Australia.
- You want to reshape the system yourself. Their administrators can add tables, fields, workflows and dashboards, and a large public help centre and free weekly training back that up.
- You have several staff for every client. Per-client pricing can come out lower than per-staff pricing when your team is large against your client list — run both on your own numbers.
If those outweigh owning an isolated instance with nothing held back for a higher plan, Brevity is a fair choice — genuinely.

Already on Brevity? Switching is our job, not yours.
Migration is part of onboarding, not a project for your admin team: we map your clients, documents and staff records into your own instance and check them with you, record by record. Export your data before you give notice — their agreement says it’s deleted 30 days after the agreement ends.
