Corti

  • +Pay-as-you-go developer pricing plus enterprise plans
  • -Decision support and documentation, not an autonomous clinician; clinician review required
  • -Developer-oriented; less of a finished end-user product than some scribes

  • +Rare true self-hosted, on-prem, and air-gapped options for regulated and government use
  • +A single Voice Agent API collapses the STT-LLM-TTS stack
  • -Infrastructure, not a finished product: you build the agent and UX yourself
  • -The Voice Agent API is materially pricier, and connection-time billing can surprise
