Core offering

Abridge provides an AI-powered enterprise platform that captures patient-clinician conversations and converts them into structured clinical notes, billing/coding, nursing flowsheets, and clinical decision support. It is delivered as a unified Clinician Intelligence Platform with modules for clinicians, revenue cycle, nursing, and clinical decision support, embedded directly into major EHR systems. The platform is sold via enterprise subscriptions to U.S. health systems, payers, and life sciences organizations.

Product overview

Abridge offers an enterprise-grade AI platform for clinical conversations organized around a unified Clinician Intelligence Platform with three tailored product experiences: Abridge for Clinicians (ambient AI documentation for physicians and APPs), Abridge Revenue Cycle (automated billing and coding from conversations), and Abridge for Nursing (ambient documentation for nurses). A Clinical Decision Support module integrates UpToDate, NEJM, and JAMA evidence content. Underpinning all products is the proprietary Contextual Reasoning Engine, which synthesizes the live conversation, patient EHR data, and external clinical knowledge into a continuous intelligence layer across pre-visit, intra-visit, and post-visit workflows. The platform is EHR-agnostic with deep integrations into Epic, Cerner, athenahealth, AllScripts, eClinicalWorks, and NextGen. Built on OpenAI GPT models (GPT-5.5, GPT-5.4) and NVIDIA Nemotron infrastructure, with proprietary ASR and note-generation models trained on clinical data.
