Summary
Two of six publish a price. Freed at $39 to $119 and Heidi at $150. The other four make you book a call to find out.1
Whatever you pay is small against what the note decides. The 2026 fee schedule already took $5 to $6 off every 99214 you bill.4

Book a demoThe published numbers
Freed publishes $39 for 40 notes, $79 unlimited, $119 with letters and ICD-10 coding. Heidi publishes $150 per user per month billed annually with a free tier at ten actions. Those two are the whole list.
Nabla is estimated at $119 to $239. Suki at $299 to $399 plus $500 to $2,000 setup and a year. Abridge at roughly $2,500 a clinician a year. DAX Copilot at $200 to $600 plus about $700 implementation, through a reseller, against your Microsoft licence position.11Pricing as at July 2026. Published, Freed and Heidi. Unpublished and third-party estimated, Nabla, Suki, Abridge and DAX Copilot. Confirm every figure with the vendor. Every one of those is somebody else guessing.
What the sticker leaves out
Check the tier. Freed at $39 is the note only, and letters and coding are $119. Heidi gates EHR push above the entry plan. The number in the comparison is frequently not the number that includes what you wanted.
Then setup and term. Suki reportedly wants $500 to $2,000 before you start and a year of commitment. DAX carries an implementation fee near $700 and a reseller margin that depends on what else you buy from Microsoft, so two practices pay different numbers for the same software.
A human scribe runs $35,000 to $55,000 a year fully loaded, with turnover.33A human medical scribe costs approximately $35,000 to $55,000 per year fully loaded, with high turnover typical. Against that every number above looks like nothing. The category likes that comparison and it is the wrong one. See our comparison of the two.
The number that decides it
From 2026 your E/M level turns on Medical Decision Making.55From 2026, Medical Decision Making is the primary basis for E/M level selection. AAPC reports up to 19 percent of E/M visits undercoded at roughly $37 each. Reported MA downcoding runs $42 to $74 per visit. The note is the evidence for the code. Up to 19 percent of E/M visits are undercoded at roughly $37 each. At 4,000 encounters, about $28,000 a year.
Medicare Advantage downcoding takes $42 to $74 off a chronic disease visit and a reported $28,000 to $74,000 a physician a year, and never appears as a denial. The 2026 conversion factor of about $32.35 per RVU already took $21,000 to $36,000 a physician, structurally.442026 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule conversion factor is approximately $32.35 per RVU, roughly $5 to $6 less per 99214. At 350 to 500 E/M visits per month that is $21,000 to $36,000 per physician per year.

What we charge
On one page, the same for everyone, no setup fee and no minimum term. Letters, coding, the briefing and cited answers are on every plan rather than a tier above.
What we are not claiming
We do not start at $39 and Freed does. We have no free tier and Heidi does. If the note is your entire problem and $39 is the right size of decision, take Freed and ignore everything above.

Frequently asked questions
How much do AI medical scribes cost per month?
Published prices run $39 to $150. Freed publishes $39 for 40 notes, $79 unlimited and $119 with letters and ICD-10 coding. Heidi publishes $150 per user per month billed annually, with a free tier at ten actions. Those two are the entire list of vendors who will tell you without a call.

What are the hidden costs of an AI medical scribe?
Tier gating, setup fees and minimum terms. Freed at $39 is the note only, with letters and coding at $119. Heidi gates EHR push above its entry plan. Suki reportedly charges $500 to $2,000 to start and wants a year. DAX Copilot carries an implementation fee near $700 plus reseller margin that depends on your Microsoft licence position, so two practices pay different numbers for the same software. The number in the comparison is frequently not the number that includes what you wanted.
Does an AI scribe cost less than a human scribe?
Yes, and that comparison favours every product in this category, so the category reaches for it constantly. A human scribe runs roughly $35,000 to $55,000 a year fully loaded with high turnover, so against that a $39 to $150 subscription looks like nothing. The more useful comparison is what the note decides. From 2026 your E/M level turns on Medical Decision Making, and up to 19 percent of E/M visits are undercoded at roughly $37 each, which is around $28,000 a year at 4,000 encounters.
