Kardia 12L vs Glass Health
A clinic whose IT lead wants named audits before signing finds them on AliveCor's security page: SOC 2 Type 2 with zero exceptions listed, ISO 27001, and an ISO 42001 AI management system covering Kardia AI V2 and Corvair. Glass's practices page states HIPAA-compliant infrastructure and BAAs for providers and organizations, which is the paperwork a clinic needs in hand before an ambient scribe hears a patient. Kardia 12L lists at $2,295 in USD, covering the device and KardiaPro access, and the page does not say whether that recurs. Glass fits the clinician who wants documentation and decision support in one subscription. It lists an ambient scribe, differentials with citations, notes in 60+ document types and E/M, ICD-10 and CPT suggestions. The free Lite plan carries ad sponsorships, and Pro at $90 per month is ad-free.
