AvodahMed vs Chartnote
AvodahMed, aimed at practices on athenahealth or Epic, syncs notes, diagnoses and referral documentation to those systems in one click, runs in QuickStart mode for users without an integration, and shows SOC 2 Type II dated December 2025. It offers a demo and states no price or trial. Chartnote lists, per clinician per month, Basic at $0 for 15 notes, Pro at $39.99 for up to 100 notes and Max at $99.99 for unlimited notes under a fair-use policy. It inserts notes into any web-based EMR through a Chrome extension, offers dictation and over 1,000 preloaded templates, and describes an annual SOC 2 Type II examination with the report under NDA. A poster on r/emergencymedicine in October 2024 called realtime dictation its most distinguishing feature and Max about double the price of equally capable competitors. For an urgent care physician trying scribes before talking to anyone, AvodahMed gives way to a free plan capped at 15 notes a month.
