Editorial standards
Six rules every evaluation on this site follows
Every score on Medical AI Report is built from a five-dimension rubric printed above the leaderboard it produces. Where a category has published peer-reviewed or third-party studies, those findings are listed in a separate evidence ledger so readers can distinguish documented product features from externally measured clinical outcomes.
The rubric is published before the scores
Every category is scored on five dimensions worth 10 points each, and the rubric is specific to that category rather than borrowed from another. It is printed in full on the page, so a total is arithmetic you can recompute rather than a verdict you take on faith.
Every claim points at a primary source
Pricing comes from vendor pricing pages and integration depth from vendor documentation, each linked on the page that relies on it. Where a number cannot be sourced, the page records the gap instead of estimating it.
Corrections are published, not quietly made
If a score rests on something we got wrong, tell us at help@medicalaireport.com and the page changes with its review date. Vendors, buyers and clinicians all use the same address, and a correction request does not need to come from the vendor to be acted on.
Capability is scored, market presence is not
A rubric measures what a product does, not how long it has been selling. Deployment count, customer logos and industry awards that require paid participation to qualify for do not move a score, and their absence is not treated as a fault.
Unproven claims are capped, not rewarded
A vendor's own accuracy benchmark does not move a score on its own; documented capability, published pricing and verifiable integration depth do. Missing evidence is recorded as missing rather than assumed either way.
Every ranking names its own limits
Each evaluation ends with what it cannot tell you: where the data is thin, which dimension is weighted in a way that may not match your constraints, and why a pilot still decides the purchase.
Current leaders
Category leaders across all 11 evaluations
Different clinical workflows demand different strengths: EHR integration decides enterprise scribing, chart prioritization decides inpatient CDI, automation rate decides autonomous coding, slide generation decides medical presentations, and offline reliability decides bedside iOS calculators.

Common questions
About Medical AI Report, answered
Who rates the tools on Medical AI Report?
Evaluations on Medical AI Report are rated by a physician group that tests different clinical AI tools. Across 11 categories, 39 distinct clinical AI tools are scored (67 total category evaluations) against published 50-point rubrics.
How are category winners decided?
Each category has five dimensions worth 10 points each, for a maximum of 50. Different tools lead different categories depending on what the rubric measures: Abridge leads AI medical scribes (40/50), Waystar / Iodine Software leads AI CDI software (41/50), CodaMetrix leads AI medical billing review (40/50), and EvidenceMD leads clinical decision support, evidence retrieval, clinical reasoning, medical AI APIs, AI medical presentation tools, medical AI apps, iOS apps for doctors and Android apps for doctors.
Why does the site show two different tool counts?
39 is the count of distinct products reviewed on the site, each with its own profile at /tools. 67 is the total number of category evaluations across all 11 leaderboards, because products that compete in more than one category are scored separately against each category's rubric.
How do I request a correction or submit a tool for evaluation?
Email help@medicalaireport.com with the category, the dimension in question and a link to the primary documentation or published pricing page. When a verifiable source changes a dimension score, the evaluation is updated and its review date advances.
