Sunoh.ai vs Veradigm Ambient Scribe (2026)

AI Health Index verifiedAugust 4, 2026
Verdict

Both are the scribe offered inside a record system, so the comparison is about which bundled option is the stronger product. Sunoh, the healow scribe from eClinicalWorks, publishes its price at $149 per user a month with a free trial, pre fills lab, imaging, procedure and medication orders from the conversation, covers specialties from pediatrics to dental and vision, and reaches other browser based records through a free Chrome extension. Veradigm Ambient Scribe is available to Veradigm EHR clients, writes clinical, SOAP and referral notes into the record with ICD-10 suggestions for review, and is powered by AvodahMed, which Veradigm names in its launch materials and legal terms. Its click through agreement bills $1 per encounter and licenses Veradigm to use the client's audio recordings, input data and generated documentation to train and improve the product. If you run Veradigm and want codes suggested rather than orders drafted, at a usage price, the module is there. If you want orders drafted, a wider specialty list or a scribe not tied to one record system, start with Sunoh.

The case for Sunoh.ai
  • The price is on the page, at $149 per user a month as a limited time rate, with a free trial, a no commitment sign up, and implementation and a business associate agreement included.
  • The specialty list is enumerated, from family medicine, pediatrics, cardiology and dermatology to behavioral health with DAP notes, vision clinics and dental periodontal charting, where Veradigm publishes no specialty list.
  • Orders are drafted from the conversation, with labs, imaging, procedures, medication orders and follow up details pre filled for the clinician to review.
The case for Veradigm Ambient Scribe
  • The supplier and the rate are on the record. Veradigm names AvodahMed as the company powering the scribe and bills $1 per encounter under the product agreement.
  • It states a limitation plainly, that capture in other languages produces English documentation, so a practice knows what the note will look like.
  • Codes arrive as ICD-10 suggestions for provider review, with no ambient order or prescription drafting described, and real time prompts are tuned to each practice's protocols.

Sunoh.ai

Sunoh.ai is the ambient AI scribe from healow, an eClinicalWorks company, and the documentation option built into the eClinicalWorks record system. It listens to the visit and produces a transcript, a dialogue flow and a draft note sorted into Progress Note sections, and it captures labs, imaging, procedures, medication orders and follow up details from the conversation as draft orders.

FAQ

Questions buyers ask

How do Sunoh.ai and Veradigm Ambient Scribe work with the EHR?

Beyond its home system, Sunoh.ai names integrations with athenahealth, Cerner, Epic, ModMed, Practice Fusion and Tebra, without published detail on what each reads or writes. Other browser based record systems are reached through EHR Sync, a free Chrome extension configured once per EHR, which reads patient data, drafts notes and sends them into the record after the clinician reviews and approves them.

Notes land directly in the Veradigm EHR, capture runs through a dedicated mobile application, and enhancements reach customers through phased rollout without system upgrades or lengthy implementation cycles, which is a clear advantage of native delivery. Veradigm also runs an app marketplace listing competing scribes, so native does not mean exclusive even inside its own base. From the AI Health Index, drawn from each vendor's own published materials and the regulatory record, verified August 4, 2026. No vendor pays for placement.

How are Sunoh.ai and Veradigm Ambient Scribe priced and sold?

Sunoh.ai lists $149 per user per month, marked as a limited time rate, with a sign up that carries no contract commitment and with implementation services, the voice recognition system and a business associate agreement included. EHR Sync carries no extra charge, so the cost can be sized and the product started without a sales conversation, though the page does not say what the rate becomes when the offer ends.

The Veradigm Ambient Scribe Agreement bills usage at $1 per encounter, payable monthly, with an encounter defined as the moment a user selects Begin Visit and transcription starts. Either party can terminate for convenience on thirty days' notice. From the AI Health Index, drawn from each vendor's own published materials and the regulatory record, verified August 4, 2026. No vendor pays for placement.

How much do Sunoh.ai and Veradigm Ambient Scribe leave to the clinician?

With Sunoh.ai, the provider reviews the summarized content, edits it and imports it into the Progress Note, merging preset defaults with one click, and through EHR Sync reviews, edits and approves notes before they reach another record system.

In Veradigm Ambient Scribe's case, the product agreement makes the client solely responsible for reviewing generated documentation before relying on it. One capability goes further: real time clinical insight prompts tuned to practice protocols surface care considerations during the encounter, which edges from documentation into decision support and carries a different risk profile from note generation. From the AI Health Index, drawn from each vendor's own published materials and the regulatory record, verified August 4, 2026. No vendor pays for placement.

Disclosure

An earlier version of this comparison described Veradigm's scribe as powered by an unnamed third party, said Veradigm published no product specific business associate agreement, and presented capture without an audio recording as a claim worth verifying. Veradigm's click through agreement names AvodahMed, states its business associate status and provides that audio recordings and other encounter data are collected and licensed to Veradigm for training.

Those statements were corrected on 15 September 2026. Neither vendor publishes an accuracy figure or a bias position. Veradigm names no foundation model, hosting region or subprocessor list below AvodahMed, and Sunoh names no model and publishes no retention period for audio or transcripts.
