Vero

Vero is an AI medical scribe for clinicians who want encounter documentation and clinical reference tools in the same workflow. It is best suited to solo professionals and small practices, particularly those handling multilingual visits. The main trade-off is a free allowance of 10 encounters per month versus Pro’s unlimited use at a lower price with annual billing.

Overview

Vero brings recorded conversation, typed or dictated observations, and uploaded files together in a structured note. It also drafts follow-up tasks, extracts patient history, suggests ICD-10 codes, and answers clinical questions with cited evidence. That range can reduce the need to assemble documentation and reference work across separate steps, but generated notes and suggestions still call for clinical review.

Key features

Vero transcribes 60 languages and can handle up to three languages in one visit, making it a strong fit for multilingual encounters. Its Vero Evidence feature searches 27 million articles for clinical evidence and guidelines, then presents cited answers in the workflow. The citations help clinicians assess the material; they do not replace professional judgment.

Templates can be created from scratch, generated with AI, or imported. The shared marketplace has more than 2,400 templates, and Vero says it supports more than 200 specialties, from primary care and surgery to mental health, dental, nursing, and veterinary care. That breadth offers a useful starting point across varied practices, though clinicians may still want to tailor templates to their own documentation needs.

For telehealth visits, Vero can capture Zoom, Microsoft Teams, or other telehealth audio when the user shares browser-tab audio. Notes can be exported to PDF or DOCX, emailed, printed, or copied into any EHR. These options make it adaptable to existing workflows, but copying into an EHR is not the same as a named EHR integration.

Vero says it is HIPAA and PIPEDA compliant and SOC 2 Type II certified, and that it enforces MFA with AAL2. It says audio is never stored, customer data is not sold, shared, or used to train models, and auto-delete policies can be set from one to 90 days. Those controls will matter to practices weighing how encounter material is handled.

Pricing

The Free plan costs nothing and allows 10 encounters per month, with no credit card required. It follows a seven-day full-access trial. This is a sensible way to assess the workflow or handle occasional visits, but the cap is restrictive for regular clinical use.

Pro costs $69 a month billed annually, or $89 month-to-month, and includes unlimited encounters. The annual option is aimed at solo professionals and small practices with steady volume; it lowers the monthly price but requires an annual commitment. The month-to-month option costs more but avoids that commitment. The pricing page also says “Save $240” for yearly billing.

Enterprise has custom pricing and unlimited encounters, for medical facilities, clinics, and hospital networks. Practices comparing plans should weigh that organizational fit against Pro’s stated focus on solo professionals and small practices.

Platforms

Vero runs on Android, iOS, macOS, web, and Windows, with mobile apps for both Android and iOS. That range gives clinicians options across desktop and phone workflows.

Who it's for

Vero is most compelling for clinicians who want flexible encounter capture, multilingual transcription, configurable templates, and cited clinical answers alongside note drafting. Its specialty range and file, audio, and dictation inputs suit varied documentation routines. It is less compelling for very occasional users who need more than 10 free encounters a month, or for practices that require a named EHR integration rather than copying notes into their system.

Pros and cons

Flexible visit capture: Audio, typed or dictated observations, and uploaded files can contribute to one structured note.

Broad language and specialty coverage: 60 languages, up to three per visit, and support for more than 200 specialties widen its potential fit.

Evidence in the workflow: Cited answers draw on a search of 27 million articles and guidelines.

Strict free-plan ceiling: Ten encounters a month makes the free tier suitable mainly for light use or evaluation.

Annual Pro is the lower-priced route: The $69/month price requires annual billing; month-to-month costs $89.

No named EHR integration: Notes can be copied into any EHR, but the described workflow does not name a direct EHR integration.

Alternatives

For a broader comparison, see AI Medical Scribe Software.

Tali AI Scribe is worth considering if its five monthly AI Scribes and 60 minutes of dictation after a 14-day Pro trial suit your usage better.

Heidi may suit someone who prioritizes unlimited transcription on a free seat, with standard templates and limited use of other features.

Tandem Health AI Scribe is an option for users who value unlimited free note generation and up to two custom templates, with limited daily Pro Actions.

CareWay offers a free plan for resident physicians.

Chartnote AI Scribe may fit a lighter workflow needing 15 free AI Scribe notes a month and web-based EMR transfer.

Lyrebird Health is another freemium alternative.

Transcribe Health offers a free allowance of 30 encounters a month, up to 90 transcription minutes, and 1 GB of storage.

Autochart.ai may appeal to those seeking a paid plan starting at $29/month for 20 encounters a month, with extra encounters at $0.75 each.

Verdict

Choose Vero if you want encounter capture, note drafting, multilingual transcription, and cited clinical reference in one tool, and your practice can justify Pro’s unlimited encounters. Look elsewhere if 10 monthly encounters will not cover your use and the $89 month-to-month price or annual commitment does not suit your budget, or if your workflow depends on a direct EHR integration.
