What is Abridge?

Abridge uses AI to listen to conversations between patients and clinicians, then automatically generates draft clinical notes from those interactions. The tool captures what's discussed during appointments and converts it into structured documentation that follows clinical standards. This is designed for healthcare providers who spend significant time on note-writing after appointments. Rather than manually transcribing or typing up visit summaries, clinicians can review and edit AI-generated drafts, potentially saving time on administrative work. The tool operates on a freemium model, allowing users to try it before committing to a paid plan.
