AI Scribe

Watch the AI scribe capture and document patient encounters with clinical reasoning built in.

Who It's For

A clinical reasoning partner that enhances medical decision-making and streamlines documentation and operational workflows.

Example question
"What are the treatment options for CKD stage 4 in a patient with diabetes and eGFR 28?"
Typical output
  • Differential and risk factors
  • Guideline-based treatment pathway
  • Medication considerations (contraindications, renal dosing)
  • Monitoring plan and follow-up intervals
  • Referral thresholds
  • Evidence summary with inline citations [1][2]

AI Clinical Decision Support

Evidence-based clinical decision support for doctors

EvidenceMD is an AI clinical decision support platform designed to think the way clinicians do. Instead of returning a confident but unsourced paragraph, it works through a case step by step and shows the reasoning behind every recommendation — then backs that reasoning with peer-reviewed evidence from PubMed, clinical guidelines, and journals like NEJM, JAMA and The Lancet. For physicians, residents, nurses and biomedical researchers, that means answers you can actually verify at the point of care.

The platform combines four capabilities that usually require separate tools: transparent clinical reasoning, an evidence-based AI medical scribe, citation-backed literature search, and a developer medical AI API. Together they cover the clinical and administrative work that fills a modern clinician's day.

Clinical reasoning you can trace

Ask a differential, a workup, or a management question and EvidenceMD lays out its chain-of-thought with inline citations. Read more about how it works on the clinical reasoning page, or see why it's the best clinical decision support AI.

An AI scribe that cites evidence

The evidence-based AI scribe drafts structured notes from the encounter and pairs documentation with clinical decision support, so the note and the reasoning stay connected.

Search grounded in the literature

DeepSearch retrieves and summarizes peer-reviewed sources with links back to the original studies, so you can confirm guidance against the primary literature rather than a model's memory.

A medical AI API for builders

Teams can integrate the same clinical reasoning and citations into their own products through an OpenAI-compatible medical AI API, with a free tier to start.

Who EvidenceMD is for

Physicians and residents use EvidenceMD to pressure-test a differential, check drug interactions, and draft medical-necessity rationales with supporting citations. Nurses and advanced practice providers use it for guideline-concordant workups and clear documentation. Biomedical researchers use DeepSearch to move quickly across the literature. And healthcare engineering teams embed the API to bring evidence-based reasoning into their own clinical workflows. Learn more about the people building it on the team page.

Because it is built for medicine, EvidenceMD is careful about what it does and does not claim: it is a clinical decision support tool that surfaces evidence and reasoning to support a licensed clinician's judgment, not a replacement for it. Every answer is designed to be checked, with the sources one click away.

Frequently asked questions

What is EvidenceMD?
EvidenceMD is an AI clinical decision support platform for doctors and healthcare professionals. It answers clinical questions with transparent, step-by-step reasoning and grounds every recommendation in peer-reviewed evidence from sources such as PubMed, NEJM, JAMA and The Lancet — and it also includes an evidence-based AI medical scribe.
Is EvidenceMD better than ChatGPT for clinical questions?
Unlike general-purpose assistants, EvidenceMD is purpose-built for medicine. It shows its clinical chain-of-thought, cites peer-reviewed literature and guidelines with each answer, and is specialty-aware, so clinicians can verify the evidence behind every recommendation instead of trusting an unsourced response.
Does EvidenceMD have a mobile app?
Yes. EvidenceMD is available on the web, on iOS via the Apple App Store, and on Android via Google Play, plus a Chrome extension for the AI scribe. Your history and workspace stay in sync across devices.
Is EvidenceMD HIPAA compliant?
EvidenceMD is built with a HIPAA-aligned security posture: data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) is available for eligible plans.
Can developers build on the EvidenceMD API?
Yes. EvidenceMD offers an OpenAI-compatible medical AI API so teams can add evidence-based clinical reasoning with citations to EHRs, telehealth tools and healthcare products. See the Medical AI API page to get started.
