Archy vs Overjet
Two very different dental AI purchases that get compared because both are sold to the same practice. Archy is a cloud practice management platform with a native AI layer, so its scribe runs inside the system with access to the chart and the imaging, insurance and payments all sit in one place. Overjet reads the radiograph, detecting and quantifying caries, bone loss and calculus in real time, and works alongside whatever platform the practice already runs. If you are replacing your practice management system, Archy bundles the AI into that decision. If you are not, Overjet is the capability worth adding. The thing to press Overjet on is structural: the same detection technology is sold to practices and to dental insurers who dispute those practices' claims about the same images, and nothing published says whether the models or their thresholds differ by customer.
- It is the practice management system, so the scribe runs natively with access to the chart rather than pasting a note in from outside, and imaging, insurance and payments sit in the same platform.
- The pricing structure is published even if the rates are not, which is more commercial openness than most practice management vendors offer.
- For a practice replacing its whole platform anyway, buying the AI layer with it removes a second procurement and a second integration.
- The radiographic detection is the product rather than a layer on a platform, quantifying caries, bone loss and calculus in real time on the images a practice already takes.
- Detection performance on the radiograph is a different capability from documentation, and it is the one that changes what the clinician sees rather than what they type.
- It works alongside the practice management system a dental office already runs, so nothing has to be replaced to adopt it.

The dual sided commercial structure on the imaging side is the thing to understand before comparing anything: the same detection technology is sold to dental practices and to dental insurers, who are counterparties in claims disputes about the same radiographs, and nothing published states whether the models are identical, whether calibration differs by customer type, or what separates the two businesses internally.
Archy publishes no business associate terms, no health privacy statement addressing its own obligations, no attestation of its own and no retention or training use position. Neither vendor publishes quantified evidence for its AI features.
