# Heidi Health Alternative for Australian Clinicians

> TeleScribe at A$79/month vs Heidi Clinician A$120/month + A$40/month Evidence add-on for lit search. Approximately half the price of the equivalent Heidi stack.

## Why clinicians switch from Heidi to TeleScribe

- **Total monthly cost.** Heidi Clinician is A$120/mo monthly (A$85/mo billed annually). Heidi Evidence — the lit search add-on — is a separate A$40/mo. A clinician who wants both note-taking and lit search on Heidi pays approximately A$160/mo on monthly billing. TeleScribe bundles both into A$79/mo with no annual lock-in.
- **Data sovereignty.** TeleScribe stores transcripts and clinical notes in an Australian-hosted Supabase database (Sydney region, ap-southeast-2). Audio is processed in memory and never written to disk. Black Health Intelligence Pty Ltd (ABN 23 693 026 112), registered in Australia, verifiable via the Australian Business Register. Heidi is Australian-headquartered; specific data residency commitments require contacting Heidi directly.
- **Video consult.** Included in TeleScribe’s A$79/mo. Heidi does not advertise video consult as a core included feature on its public homepage as of 2026-04-14.
- **No annual lock-in.** Monthly billing only.

## One thing worth being honest about

If you’re a trainee, Heidi gives the Clinician plan free. TeleScribe’s student/registrar discount is 40% off. Heidi also sells the Heidi Remote 21g wearable microphone — hands-free hardware TeleScribe does not have. And Heidi has a longer list of live EMR integrations.

## The maths (verified 2026-04-14)

| Cost bucket | TeleScribe | Heidi equivalent |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly | A$79 | A$160 (Clinician + Evidence) |
| Annual (if billed annually) | A$79 | A$125 (Clinician + Evidence annual rates) |
| Annual total cost | A$948 | A$1,500-1,920 |

TeleScribe is approximately half the price on monthly billing.
