Switching doesn't mean starting over. The core scribe experience is all here.
Real-time transcription and structured notes generated from every consultation — accurate medical terminology out of the box.
SOAP, specialty-specific formats, dot phrases and fully customizable templates that match how you already document.
Multilingual encounters with automatic language handling — capture consultations in the language your patients speak.
Evidence-based recommendations and drug-interaction and allergy checks surfaced at the point of care.
HIPAA-compliant and SOC 2 certified, with encryption and access controls built in.
From conversation to a review-ready note in seconds — cut documentation time by up to 75%.
Abridge writes the note and hands off to a separate RCM contract. WhisperFlow runs the whole encounter — from coding through the front desk — in one platform.
ICD-10 and CPT codes are generated during the encounter — not bolted on after or reserved for a premium tier. Billing-ready documentation in seconds means fewer denials and more captured revenue.
WhisperFlow drafts context-aware replies to patient messages. Physicians review and send in one click — reclaiming hours lost to the inbox every week.
Beyond follow-ups: a 24/7 AI phone assistant, WhatsApp appointment booking, automated reminders and L1–L5 triage — one hub for every inbound and outbound patient touchpoint.
A floating Chrome extension drops notes into any EHR field — paste or auto-fill with field binding. Works with Epic, Cerner, athenahealth, eClinicalWorks and more, with no IT project.
Yes. Abridge is engineered for enterprise Epic deployments at large health systems, which puts it out of reach for most independent clinics and mid-market groups. WhisperFlow delivers the same core ambient scribe experience — real-time transcription, structured notes, specialty templates, clinical decision support — with self-serve sign-up and a Chrome extension that works in any EHR you already use.
Abridge is scribe-first with revenue-cycle features gated behind a separate enterprise contract. WhisperFlow includes real-time ICD-10 and CPT coding, AI in-basket message replies, and a full front-desk stack — 24/7 AI phone assistant, WhatsApp appointment booking and L1–L5 patient triage — in one platform.
Yes — this is exactly the gap WhisperFlow fills. Our Chrome extension is a floating panel that drops notes into any EHR field via paste or field binding. It works with Epic, Cerner, athenahealth, eClinicalWorks and more, without an integration project.
Minutes. Sign up, install the Chrome extension, and start documenting in your existing EHR. There is no hardware to ship, no procurement cycle and no credit card required to try it.
