Clinical AI platform pairing ambient scribing with evidence grounded decision support: ranked differentials, cited clinical Q&A across 38 million plus articles, and a developer API.

Glass Health pairs ambient scribing with something the other scribes do not attempt: evidence grounded clinical reasoning at the point of care. Founded in 2021 by Dr Dereck Paul, an internal medicine physician trained at UCSF and Brigham and Women's, with Graham Ramsey, and backed by Y Combinator, Breyer Capital, and Initialized, Glass began as an AI clinical decision support tool, a GPS for clinical reasoning, and has grown into a platform spanning documentation, differential diagnosis, and clinical Q&A. Clinicians describe a case in natural language and Glass returns a ranked differential with suggested workups, drafts a problem oriented assessment and plan with inline evidence links, and answers clinical questions with citations drawn from an index of more than 38 million peer reviewed articles, consensus guidelines, and FDA information covering 154,000 plus drug compounds.

The evidence layer is the differentiator. In the Harvard and Stanford ARISE NOHARM evaluation, a physician validated clinical safety benchmark, Glass ranked among the top medical AI systems, and every response carries inline citations for verification. The ambient scribing side converts encounters into clinic notes, H&P notes, progress notes, discharge summaries, or patient handouts with custom template support, and assisted EHR workflows cover Epic, eClinicalWorks, athenahealth, and Elation. A Glass Developer API exposes the full stack, clinical Q&A, chart summarization, differential generation, care planning, and a scribing endpoint, so EHRs, telehealth platforms, and clinical apps can embed the clinical intelligence, an extensibility surface rare in this lane.

Glass runs freemium: a free tier serves residents, students, and light users, with a Pro plan around $90 per month for individuals and custom enterprise and API pricing. Independent testing notes the flip side: reasoning is strongest on common presentations and weaker on complex multi system cases, the product is web first without a native mobile app, and it remains decision support requiring physician judgment on every output, a positioning the company itself insists on.

Integrations

Assisted EHR workflows with Epic, eClinicalWorks, athenahealth, and Elation, incorporating patient chart data into decision support. The Glass Developer API is a first class product exposing clinical Q&A, chart summarization, differential generation, care planning, and a scribing endpoint, with markdown responses, inline citations, and multi region autoscaling infrastructure.

In practice

A complex presentation has you anchoring on the first diagnosis that fits. Glass generates a ranked differential with suggested workups and evidence for each candidate, breaking tunnel vision.

You want the assessment and plan drafted with the reasoning shown. Glass writes a problem oriented A&P with inline citations linking every recommendation to guidelines and literature.

Your telehealth platform needs clinical intelligence without building a medical AI team. The Glass Developer API embeds cited Q&A, differentials, and scribing behind a REST interface.

Pricing

Free tier; Pro around $90 per month; enterprise and Developer API custom

seats (per user per month)

Public — partialLow variable costFree tierTrial available

Included quota

Free tier includes limited ambient scribing and limited clinical decision support with cited Q&A. Pro unlocks full individual use. Enterprise adds organizational controls; the Developer API is metered separately under custom terms.

What is public

The free tier and the roughly $90 Pro rate; enterprise and API pricing are not public.

Billing mechanics

Self serve freemium for individual clinicians with a Pro monthly subscription, plus custom quoted enterprise deployments and a separately priced Developer API for embedding clinical intelligence in third party products.

Cost watchouts

Enterprise and Developer API pricing are custom and undisclosed, and the free tier's limits make it an evaluation mode rather than a working plan for full time clinical use. Credential verification is required for full access.

Variable cost rationale

Flat individual subscription with feature gated free tier; only the separately contracted Developer API carries usage based cost.

Additional watchouts

Strong on common presentations, weaker on complex multi system cases per independent testing, and web first with no native mobile app. Decision support positioning means physician judgment is required on every output.

Overage / add-ons

Free tier feature limits push upgrade to Pro; no usage metering documented on individual plans. API usage is metered under custom terms.

Sales call required

Mixed (some tiers require a call)

Free / trial

Free tier with limited ambient scribing and clinical decision support

Lowest paid plan

Commercial notes

Independent, founded 2021 by Dr Dereck Paul and Graham Ramsey, backed by Y Combinator, Breyer Capital, and Initialized. Ranked among top medical AI systems in the Harvard and Stanford ARISE NOHARM safety benchmark.

Key ambiguities

The Pro rate near $90 comes from vendor comparison pages, while some reviews describe the product as free beta with enterprise pricing to be determined; organizational and API rates are entirely undisclosed.
