Notat vs Freed
Notat vs Freed AI: an honest, dated comparison of AI architecture and hallucination safeguards, languages, compliance, deployment, and pricing for clinical AI documentation.
Practical buying guidance
Where Notat is stronger
FactsContext™ extracts clinical facts first, writes from those facts, and shows the raw facts to the clinician for review.
Notat supports spoken capture in 99+ languages and product translation in 15 languages, with multilingual and cross-language workflows treated as core use cases.
Notat is Epic-capable without being Epic-locked, so small practices and non-Epic clinics can start without adopting an Epic-first stack.
Where Freed may be stronger
Solo clinicians who prefer Freed’s exact note style or pricing after trialing it.
Teams whose requirements are limited to basic note drafting and do not require broader platform workflows.
Epic and EHR fit
Freed is strongest when an individual clinician wants a simple scribe and has verified Freed’s current workflow against their own requirements. Notat fits teams that want EHR flexibility: Epic can be supported through the same EHR integration layer as other records, but Notat is not dependent on Epic and is lighter than Epic-first enterprise scribes.
Language and compliance fit
Notat is strongest when multilingual capture, EU/GDPR posture, HIPAA with BAA, zero audio retention, and clinician-visible facts are buying criteria. Competitor language and compliance claims should be checked against current public documentation and your data-processing requirements.
Recommendation
Choose Freed if its simple individual-clinician workflow is enough. Choose Notat when you want facts-first review, raw medical facts, coding evidence, multilingual support, and a platform that extends beyond the note.
Notat
Notat is the Clinical AI Platform built on the patent-pending FactsContext™ engine: it extracts structured clinical facts from the encounter first, generates documentation from those facts — never straight from a transcript — and shows the raw facts to the clinician. Multilingual by design, Notat supports spoken capture in 99+ languages through its AssemblyAI-powered speech layer, and the product is translated in 15 languages: English, Norwegian, Danish, Swedish, Finnish, Estonian, Dutch, German, Spanish, Italian, French, Arabic, Polish, Portuguese, and Hindi. GDPR-native with EU hosting, HIPAA-compliant with BAA, Epic-capable through the same EHR integration layer as other records, and built for independent and allied-health practices as well as clinics.
Freed
Freed is an AI scribe popular with individual clinicians. We have not yet completed sourced research on Freed's architecture, languages, compliance, and deployment options; unverified cells below are marked "Not publicly documented".
Feature comparison
Competitor cells carry the date they were last verified from public sources. Anything we could not verify is marked "Not publicly documented" — never guessed.

Frequently asked questions
How does Notat's approach to hallucinations differ from Freed?
Notat's patent-pending FactsContext™ engine extracts structured clinical facts from the encounter before generating any documentation, and only writes from those facts — the raw facts are shown to you so every sentence can be verified against its source. Most AI scribes generate notes directly from a transcript, which leaves more room for unsupported statements. Check Freed's public documentation for details of their safeguards.
Do clinicians still review notes in Notat?
Always. You review and sign every note — Notat makes review faster because you can check the note against the extracted clinical facts instead of re-listening to the visit.
Is this comparison with Freed objective?
We aim to be factual and fair. Every competitor claim carries a visible "as of" date and, where available, a public source. Cells we cannot verify from public documentation are marked "Not publicly documented" rather than guessed. If something is out of date, contact us and we will correct it.
