Augnito vs Corti
Two European companies that arrived at ambient documentation from clinical speech, and they sell at different layers. Augnito comes from a transcription business with more than two decades in a national health service estate and pairs speech recognition with ambient capture in one platform, which is the practical shape for an organisation moving clinicians off dictation gradually rather than switching overnight. Corti sells the models themselves as infrastructure, with sovereign cloud or on premise deployment, language specific models built to handle accent variation, and a live fact by fact review loop instead of a finished narrative to proofread. If you are running a migration, Augnito covers both ends of it. If you intend to own the documentation layer or embed it in your own product, Corti is selling that and Augnito is not.
- It pairs clinical speech recognition with ambient documentation in one platform, which suits an organisation migrating clinicians off dictation rather than starting fresh.
- Two decades of clinical speech work in a national health service estate means the regulatory and procurement experience is already inside the company.
- For a health system with a large existing dictation base, one vendor across both modalities avoids running two contracts through a multi year transition.
- It sells models as infrastructure through documented interfaces, with sovereign cloud, any cloud or on premise deployment, so clinical audio need never leave the institution.
- The architecture is described mechanically as a staged loop that surfaces atomic facts for live clinician review, rather than presenting a finished narrative to proofread.
- Named and dated attestations and language specific models built to handle accent variation by engineering rather than by disclaimer.

Both are European first and neither is a straightforward United States purchase: establish business associate terms explicitly rather than assuming the European compliance framing transfers. Corti's evidence for the ambient documentation product specifically is thin, resting on a vendor generated figure and commissioned market research rather than clinical study, which sits oddly against its strong technical disclosure. Augnito publishes no accuracy figure, model card or evaluation methodology, and carries a services heritage that makes its commercial model different from a per clinician software subscription.
