Heidi
Also known as: Heidi Health, Heidi AI
AI care partner for clinicians: an ambient scribe in 110 languages with structured writeback to Epic, Oracle Cerner and athenahealth, Heidi Evidence for cited clinical answers, and Heidi Comms agents that answer patient calls and messages around the clock.
Heidi, founded in Melbourne, builds an AI care partner for clinicians that is used in 190 countries and 110 languages. The scribe captures consultations on phone, desktop (Heidi Desktop for macOS and Windows) or the Heidi Remote wearable and drafts notes from standard and advanced templates; clinicians keep a word library, pinned templates and auto-edit rules, and note insights group the corrections they keep making. Heidi Evidence answers clinical questions from journals and literature including Wiley, Cochrane, BMJ and NEJM.
Heidi Comms agents answer patient calls and messages 24/7, handle routine enquiries, bookings, reminders and follow-ups by phone and SMS, log every interaction with its transcript and outcome, and transfer the call to reception when a patient asks for a person; Comms is available by application rather than self-serve. Nothing goes to the patient until the clinician has read the recap and approved it.
Integrations write to the chart in Epic (structured writeback and clinical task automation across Hyperspace, Hyperdrive and Haiku), Oracle Cerner (MPage components in PowerChart and FirstNet) and athenahealth (schedule sync and push to chart), with Altera, AlayaCare, eClinicalWorks, Veradigm and others, Availity eligibility checks, and Google and Microsoft 365 tools. A documented Heidi API and Widget SDK serve integration partners outside Australia and New Zealand, with regions for AU, US, EU, CA and UK. The vendor states SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, ISO 42001, HIPAA, GDPR and Cyber Essentials Plus. In September 2026 Heidi raised US$340 million led by General Catalyst's Customer Value Fund, Blackbird and Headline, bringing total funding to US$436.6 million.

In practice
Your clinic documents in Spanish, Mandarin, and Arabic in the same day. Heidi supports 110 languages, the broadest coverage in the category, with the same workflow in each.
You want evidence at the point of care, not in a separate tab. Heidi Evidence answers clinical questions with citations from BMJ, NICE, and HealthPathways inside the documentation workflow.
A resident wants to trial an AI scribe without a budget line. Heidi's free tier includes unlimited transcription with standard templates, enough to run real clinic days before paying.

Recent platform changes
Heidi II began rolling out in English and French, turning the ambient scribe into an agent that takes a plain language request and carries it through, such as preparing the day's charts, chasing pathology results and filling referral forms. Saved tasks become Routines that run on a schedule, on an event or across a patient list. Clinicians choose between approving every step and letting routine work run, and prescribing, claims, deleting records and diagnosis always wait for sign off.
Bears on: Human approval / guardrails
View sourceHeidi Health launched its ambient AI medical scribe platform in Hong Kong. This regional expansion introduces its automated clinical documentation tools to a new market.
Bears on: Deployment / data residency
View sourcePricing
Free tier; Clinician $150 per user per month billed annually (July figure, unconfirmed); Practice, team and Enterprise plans
seats (per user per month)
Included quota
Free: unlimited transcription, standard templates and Evidence, with 10 actions a month for advanced templates, Ask Heidi, form filling and patient and session linking. Clinician: unlimited advanced templates and Ask Heidi, lite EHR access. Practice: full scribe functionality, team template sharing, document and session sharing, full EHR integration access.
What is public
The vendor publishes a pricing page in local currencies and a help article with the plan structure; the Clinician rate last recorded was $150 per user per month billed annually.
Billing mechanics
Self-serve per user subscriptions with monthly or annual billing on Clinician and Practice; team and Enterprise plans by quote with SSO and custom hosting.
Cost watchouts
Full EHR integration and team features sit on Practice, above Clinician; Heidi Comms is by application, not self-serve.
Variable cost rationale
Flat per user tiers with unlimited usage on paid plans; the only cap is the free tier's 10 monthly Pro Actions, which pushes an upgrade rather than metered overage.
Additional watchouts
Plan names changed in 2026 (Practice replaces the earlier team tier) and prices vary by currency; confirm the local rate on the pricing page.
Overage / add-ons
Free tier actions cap at 10 a month; agent and routine automation carries a monthly usage allocation, while scribing and Evidence queries never consume it.
Sales call required
Mixed (some tiers require a call)
Free / trial
Free forever tier; 14 day free trial on Clinician and Practice
Lowest paid plan
Clinician, last recorded at $150 per user per month billed annually
Commercial notes
Independent, Melbourne headquartered; US$340 million raised in September 2026 led by General Catalyst's Customer Value Fund, Blackbird and Headline, US$436.6 million to date.
Key ambiguities
Current rates and currencies are not confirmed: the help article defers to a pricing page that shows local-currency prices, and the $150 Clinician rate on record dates from July.
