Aura AI Scribe

Aura AI Scribe is the flagship product of Insight Health AI, an Austin company founded by practising physicians which raised an 11 million dollar Series A in April 2026. Your list carried it twice, as InsightHealth Aura AI Scribe and as Aura AI Scribe; they are one product. It performs speech recognition with speaker diarisation, generates specialty aware notes against templates customisable per specialty, practice or individual provider with section level instructions guiding the model, synthesises patient history before the visit begins, and suggests ICD-10 and CPT codes. It carries an Epic Toolbox designation in the Ambient Voice Recognition Notes category, meaning it follows Epic's recommended connection practices and launches directly from the Haiku mobile app, and it is listed on the athenahealth Marketplace alongside integrations with eClinicalWorks and AdvancedMD. It also sells Aura Anywhere, a white label version for EHR vendors returning structured JSON mapped to the partner's own data model. The scribe sits inside a wider agent platform covering front desk, phone triage, referrals and pre visit patient interviews.

Capability Axes

AI Capability
AI Centrality
A
Vendor Published

Insight Health describes itself as an AI agentic platform and every product in it is model output: the Aura scribe, the Virtual Care Assistant conducting patient interviews, front desk, phone triage and referrals agents. No services layer or platform business underneath.

Autonomy and Oversight Model
B
Vendor Published

The scribe itself is conventional draft and review, generating notes and coding suggestions for the clinician to check before use. Two adjacent agents on the same platform carry materially more autonomy and are not described in oversight terms: PHONE TRIAGE AI, which triages patients by phone, and the Virtual Care Assistant, which conducts pre visit and post visit patient interviews to capture medical histories unsupervised. No confidence threshold, escalation path or abstention behaviour was located for either. Graded on the documentation product, which is what this record covers, with the platform autonomy flagged for anyone buying the suite.

Model and Technology Transparency
C
Vendor Published

Some real mechanical description: automatic speech recognition with speaker diarisation is named rather than implied, note templates carry section level instructions that steer generation, and the white label product documents structured JSON output and event listeners for partners. That is more architectural detail than most. But no accuracy figure, model card, named models or evaluation methodology was located anywhere, so nothing about performance can be assessed.

Clinical and Operational Evidence
B
Third Party Estimated

Platform vendor validation rather than clinical study, and the distinction matters. The Epic Toolbox designation in the Ambient Voice Recognition Notes category is a technical verification by Epic that the product follows its recommended connection practices, which is a higher bar than a marketplace listing and is held by very few vendors in this index. The athenahealth Marketplace agreement adds a second platform relationship. Multiple named clinicians are quoted, including one who reports trialling five platforms before selecting it, and an 11 million dollar Series A closed in April 2026. Held at B because none of that measures documentation quality or clinical outcome: no study, controlled comparison or accuracy benchmark was located, and the vendor claims of two hours saved daily and four to five additional patients weekly carry no denominator.

AI Safety and PHI Stewardship
Not rated

Not assessed. No retention schedule for audio or transcripts, no de identification practice and no statement on whether customer content trains models was located. That gap is more consequential than usual here because the platform captures not only encounters but also autonomous patient interviews conducted before and after visits, so the volume and variety of PHI passing through it is wider than a scribe alone.

Regulatory and Compliance
HIPAA and BAA Posture
B
Vendor Published

HIPAA compliance stated consistently across product and directory materials. Business associate agreement terms are not published for inspection, and a free tier exists so use can begin before any agreement conversation.

Security Certifications and Trust Center
A
Third Party Estimated

SOC 2 TYPE II is named and typed, which is the top rung of this axis and something only a handful of vendors in this category hold, alongside Tali AI and Scribeberry. The Epic Toolbox designation adds an independent technical review of connection practices, which is a different kind of assurance but a real one. Two additions would make it complete and should be requested at diligence: the audit date and the report scope.

FDA and Regulatory Status
Not rated

Not a regulated medical device and none claimed for the documentation product. Flag rather than grade: the platform includes a phone triage agent, and symptom triage sits closer to regulated clinical decision support than note generation. Ask how that capability has been scoped if it is in your purchase.

AI Governance and Bias Disclosure
Not rated

Nothing located. No fairness statement, subgroup analysis or accent and dialect performance disclosure, and no language coverage is claimed. Coding suggestions are framed as reducing billing errors and optimising reimbursement while maintaining compliance, which places it at the mild end of the coding gradient this index tracks rather than on the aggressive end, but no governance framework accompanies it.

Integration and Deployment
EHR and Interoperability Depth
A
Vendor Published

Among the strongest integration positions in this category and verified by the platform vendors themselves rather than asserted. The Epic Toolbox designation for Ambient Voice Recognition Notes means Epic has confirmed the product follows its recommended connection practices, and the scribe launches directly from Haiku with the encounter captured in context. It is on the athenahealth Marketplace and names eClinicalWorks and AdvancedMD alongside. The Chrome extension is designed to stay inside the same browser window as a web based record rather than forcing application switching, which is a small but real workflow difference. And Aura Anywhere exposes the whole capability to EHR vendors as a developer product, returning structured JSON that maps to the partner's data model with event hooks and staging infrastructure, which is a deeper integration surface than most competitors offer at any price.

Deployment Model and Data Residency
Not rated

Not assessed. Delivered as cloud service with an iOS application, a Chrome extension and an embedded white label option, but no hosting region, residency commitment or sub processor detail was located.

Commercial
Commercial Transparency
B
Third Party Estimated

A complete four tier ladder is documented, and it is priced well below the category norm: a free forever plan, Pro at 39.99 US dollars per clinician per month or 480 per year, Team at 79.99 per month or 960 per year, and a custom enterprise tier, with monthly and annual rates both stated. Note that coding suggestions sit in the Pro tier rather than the free one. Held at B rather than A because the full ladder was located through a third party software directory rather than confirmed on the vendor's own pricing page in this pass; confirming it there would move this to A.

Setting and Specialty Coverage
B
Vendor Published

Outpatient focused, consistent with the Epic Ambient Voice Recognition Notes category it is designated in. Specialty fit is achieved through customisable note formats definable per specialty, per practice or per individual provider, with section level instructions steering generation, which is a more granular customisation model than a fixed template library. Named users span physicians and advanced practice providers across several specialties. Held at B because no specialty count, no language coverage and no inpatient or emergency capability was located.

Pricing

Vendor-published figures are labeled as such. Figures labeled “Estimated” are derived from third-party sources and have not been confirmed by the vendor.

Entry Price Pricing Basis BAA Tier Implementation Source
Free tier. Pro $39.99 per clinician per month or $480 per year. Team $79.99 per month or $960 per year. Enterprise custom.
$0 baseline
Four published tiers per clinician with monthly and annual options, plus a separate white label arrangement for EHR vendors embedding the scribe in their own product. HIPAA compliance stated, SOC 2 Type II certified. BAA terms not published; free tier begins before any agreement conversation. None published. Access through an iOS app and a Chrome extension with no installation project; EHR vendors embedding Aura Anywhere get staging infrastructure and hands on technical guidance. Third Party Estimated

Priced substantially below the category norm, with a documented ladder running free, then 39.99 US dollars per clinician per month or 480 annually, then 79.99 monthly or 960 annually, then custom enterprise. Against mid market competitors at 99 dollars and enterprise scribes quoted in the hundreds, that is a genuinely different price position for a product carrying an Epic Toolbox designation and SOC 2 Type II. Two things to confirm rather than assume. The ladder was located through a third party directory rather than the vendor's own page, so verify it directly. And coding suggestions sit in the Pro tier, so the free plan is documentation only. Separately, if the wider agent platform is in scope, price and review the phone triage and pre visit interview agents apart from the scribe: they are patient facing and autonomous, and belong in a different conversation than a documentation purchase.
