The best alternatives to Freed
Freed might not be the right fit: the price, a missing feature or a payment model you don't like. These are the closest alternatives in our catalog, ordered by rating, with the full review of each one.
Why look for a Freed alternative
Another week with nothing verifiably new: prices, plan caps and feature tiers match the previous sweep. Independent reviews repeat the same accuracy drop outside primary care (orthopedics, integrative medicine, chiropractic) and the same feature split by plan.
What its own users repeat in the August 11, 2026 sweep:
- The $39 entry plan caps out at 40 notes a month, and the key features (EHR push, coding) require the Premier plan (strong theme)
- Independent reviews note an accuracy drop in specialties like orthopedics, integrative medicine or chiropractic compared to primary care (present theme)
- Templates aren't shared between clinicians on the same plan: on Core and Premier each professional sets up their own, and a team template only exists on the Groups plan (present theme)

What the internet says about each alternative
Nabla 3.4/5 · Price on request
In the week of August 4-11 there were no new Nabla announcements: the latest press release is still the July 28 Mac dictation launch. The pricing page still returns a 404, so access still runs through a sales demo. The rest of the picture holds: deep integration with major EHRs and the independent UCLA Health randomized trial, published in NEJM AI, confirming a real but modest time saving.
Where it wins: More than 190 healthcare organizations and 100,000 clinicians use Nabla, with cited clients like CVS Health, UCLA Health and Denver Health Where it slips: There is no public pricing page: the only route is a sales demo
Heidi Health 3/5 · Free + from $150
This sweep found no dated fact this week to justify moving the axes. Two independent readings of the official pricing page today confirm the clinician plan still costs $110 a month billed annually and 150 on its own, the same figure this site already published, so last week's correction stands. The themes the network keeps repeating haven't changed either: the free plan with unlimited transcription remains the standout against constant complaints of lost recordings, mistranscribed drug names and slow support.
Where it wins: Permanent free plan with unlimited transcription, unusual among clinical scribes Where it slips: Recordings lost or cut off mid-session without warning: the most repeated complaint, forcing the note to be rebuilt from memory
