Aidoc vs Butterfly Network
Butterfly's pricing page lists the iQ3 at $3,899 and the iQ+ at $2,699, and no price on the page states a currency. Core Technology membership is $299 per year plus the probe, and Advanced Technology is $420 per year plus the probe, adding Auto Bladder Volume and the Auto B-Line Counter. A one-time Advanced option costs $1,500 plus the probe, with software access guaranteed for 5 years. The Starter, Professional and Enterprise organization tiers say "Inquire today" instead of listing a price. The vendor states a SOC 2 Type 2 attestation, scoped to the iQ+ ecosystem. Butterfly's buyer is a clinician who wants whole-body ultrasound on a compatible phone, with bladder volume (K200980) and gestational age (K252148) tools. Aidoc's pages sell CT algorithms to hospital sites, so the two draw on separate budgets. Its AWS Marketplace listing is $6.00 per scan per Aidoc algorithm for each hospital site, on a 12-month private offer, which suits a hospital imaging service that budgets by the scan.
