Scribeable vs Freed AI:
Scribeable matches Freed on documentation speed and accessibility while offering 31 clinical calculators, 50+ quality measures, MIPS scoring, and continuity of care that Freed lacks entirely — at comparable or lower pricing.
Why Physicians Switch from Freed AI
No clinical calculators or quality measures — documentation stops at the note
No continuity of care or pre-visit context across encounters
No permanent free tier — you pay before you know if it works for your specialty
Head-to-Head Comparison
Documentation Is Just the Starting Line
Freed AI generates good notes fast — and for many physicians, that's enough. But Scribeable goes beyond documentation with 31 clinical calculators validated inside every note, 50+ quality measures tracked in real time, and MIPS scoring with payment adjustment calculations. Every note becomes a clinical intelligence event — not just a transcript summary. For physicians who care about quality metrics and billing optimization, the difference is substantial.
Continuity of Care That Freed Cannot Match
In Freed, every encounter starts from scratch. In Scribeable, every encounter builds on the last. Pre-visit briefs pull prior encounters, medications, labs, and allergies before you walk in. Quality gaps from prior visits surface automatically. Patient context carries forward across encounters. For chronic disease management and longitudinal care, this continuity changes the quality of your notes and your clinical decisions.
Comparable Price, More Clinical Value
Freed starts at $99/month for their standard plan. Scribeable Pro is $79/month with 150 notes and includes clinical calculators, quality measures, HCC coding, and continuity of care that Freed does not offer at any price. Plus, Scribeable has a permanent free tier so you can evaluate the product with your real patients before committing — something Freed does not provide.
Multi-Patient Rounding for Hospital Medicine
Hospital-based physicians using Freed must start and stop a recording for each patient. Scribeable's Rounding Mode lets you record one continuous session during rounds — the AI detects patient transitions and generates individual notes for each encounter. For hospitalists seeing 15-25 patients on rounds, this eliminates the biggest friction point in their daily documentation workflow.
Same Patient. Same Encounter.
See why physicians say Scribeable notes are “actually usable” — with integrated risk scores, billing codes, and clinical reasoning that typical AI scribes simply don’t generate.
HPI
62 y/o male presents with chest pain for 2 hours. Substernal, pressure-like, radiating to left arm. Associated with diaphoresis and shortness of breath. Pain started while climbing stairs. Patient has history of HTN, DM2, and hyperlipidemia. Takes lisinopril, metformin, and atorvastatin. Denies recent illness or trauma.

AI Medical Scribe Note Quality Comparison
Scribeable produces clinically enriched notes with integrated risk calculators (HEART Score, CHA₂DS₂-VASc, Wells PE, PHQ-9, Caprini VTE), automated billing code optimization (E&M levels, HCC/RAF capture, CPT codes), dangerous diagnosis exclusion documentation, evidence-based prescribing citations, CMS compliance for operative reports, HEDIS care gap tracking, and MIPS quality measure documentation. Typical AI scribes produce basic notes without these advanced clinical features.
ED Chest Pain: 62-year-old male presenting with substernal chest pressure, diaphoresis, and exertional dyspnea
HPI: 62 y/o male presents with 2 hours of substernal chest pressure, rated 8/10, radiating to left arm and jaw. Onset during exertion (climbing stairs).

Risk factors: HTN (10 years), DM2 (8 years), hyperlipidemia, 30-pack-year smoking history (quit 5 years ago), family history of MI (father at age 58). Current medications: lisinopril 20mg daily, metformin 1000mg BID, atorvastatin 40mg daily. Denies cocaine use, recent immobilization, or prior VTE.

New-onset Atrial Fibrillation with RVR CHA₂DS₂-VASc Score: 5 (Female sex, age ≥75, HTN, DM, HF) - Stroke risk: 6.7%/year → strong anticoagulation indication - Rate control: avoid diltiazem (negative inotropy in HFrEF) → amiodarone 150mg IV bolus then 1mg/min × 6h - Anticoagulation: apixaban 5mg BID (preferred over warfarin given age + fall risk) - TEE prior to any cardioversion attempt if AF duration uncertain - HAS-BLED: 2 (HTN, age) — acceptable bleeding risk 2. Acute Decompensated Heart Failure (ADHF) NYHA Functional Class: IV (dyspnea at rest) - IV furosemide 80mg BID (2.5× home oral dose), net negative 1-1.5L/day - Carvedilol held (acute decompensation), restart when euvolemic - Add sacubitril/valsartan when stable (PARADIGM-HF indication: EF ≤40% on ACEi) - BNP trend: 1,840 → monitor for response to diuresis 3.

VTE Risk: Caprini Score 7 (High Risk) — extended pharmacologic prophylaxis indicated

Hypertension, Suboptimally Controlled — HCC (when with CKD/DM) - BP today 138/86 — above target of <130/80 (ACC/AHA for DM patients) - Increase lisinopril to 40mg daily - Home BP log review in 4 weeks 3. Major Depressive Disorder, Recurrent, Moderate — HCC 59 - PHQ-9: 14 (moderately severe) — partial response to sertraline 50mg - Increase sertraline to 100mg daily - Safety plan reviewed, crisis line provided (988) - Follow-up in 4 weeks, recheck PHQ-9 - If inadequate response → consider augmentation or psychiatry referral 4. Preventive Care Gaps Addressed: - Mammogram ordered (last: 26 months ago — HEDIS BCS measure) - Colonoscopy referral (age 55, average risk, never screened — HEDIS COL) - Tobacco screening: former smoker, quit 3 years — MIPS measure 226 - Annual flu vaccine administered today — MIPS measure 110

What Physicians Say
I used Freed for 6 months and liked the speed, but switching to Scribeable was eye-opening. The clinical calculators catch things I would have missed, and the HCC capture on my Medicare patients has been substantial. Same documentation speed, way more clinical value.

Choose Freed if you want fast, simple note generation with minimal setup and do not need billing optimization or quality tracking.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does Scribeable compare to Freed AI for note quality?
Both Scribeable and Freed generate high-quality clinical notes from ambient recordings. The key difference is what happens beyond the note: Scribeable validates 31 clinical calculators, tracks 50+ quality measures, and provides MIPS scoring inside every note. Freed focuses on fast documentation without these clinical intelligence layers.
Is Scribeable cheaper than Freed AI?
Yes. Scribeable starts at $39/month (Lite) and $79/month (Pro), while Freed starts at $99/month. Scribeable also offers a permanent free tier with 5 notes per month — something Freed does not have. At every price point, Scribeable includes clinical calculators, quality measures, and HCC coding that Freed does not offer.
Does Scribeable have a free trial?
Yes. Every new Scribeable account gets a 14-day free trial with full Pro features and unlimited notes. No credit card required. After the trial, you keep a permanent free tier with 5 notes per month — enough to evaluate the product ongoing. Freed offers a trial period but no permanent free access.
Can I switch from Freed to Scribeable easily?
Yes. Scribeable requires no data migration — sign up, record your next encounter, and you will have a complete note in under 60 seconds. You can run both side by side during the free trial to compare quality before committing.
Does Freed AI have clinical calculators like Scribeable?
No. Freed AI does not include clinical calculators. Scribeable has 31 calculators (HEART, Wells PE/DVT, qSOFA, PHQ-9, GAD-7, GCS, CHA2DS2-VASc, and more) that are automatically scored and validated inside every clinical note based on the encounter data.
Which is better for hospital medicine — Freed or Scribeable?
Scribeable has a significant advantage for hospital-based physicians. Rounding Mode lets you record one continuous session during rounds and generates individual notes for each patient automatically. Freed requires starting and stopping recordings per patient. Scribeable also offers cross-encounter continuity of care and pre-visit briefs that are essential for inpatient workflows.
