AI tools for IME physicians, compared
Short version: 26 products in 2 tables. The 11 general assistants are for language and literature, and only 6 of them state a BAA path. The 15 IME record tools are for the file: 10 state page-linked output, ours included, and published prices run from $0.04 to $0.17 a page.
Limits: We read each product's help pages, terms and pricing on 2026-11-12 and did not test how any product handles PHI. Plans, prices and laws change, and nothing here is legal advice for your state.
How to read these tables
Every fact comes from the maker's own website, read on the date in the last column. "Not stated" means the pages we read do not say; it does not mean the product lacks the feature. Ask the vendor. We did not upload records to any product. Medrecords AI is our product, gets the same columns, and is marked "(ours)". The methodology page explains the 4 tests.

BAA path counts: ChatGPT for Clinicians, ChatGPT for Healthcare, Claude Enterprise, Gemini in Workspace, Microsoft 365 Copilot and OpenEvidence state one, and Doximity says PHI is allowed without naming a BAA. That is 6 with a stated BAA path, 1 that says PHI is allowed, and 4 with none.

Page-linked output stated: Aequitas, Docura, Dodonai, easyIME, IME Coach, InjuryMgmt, InPractice, MediScan, OctopusLM, and Medrecords AI. That is 10 of 15, or 9 of the 14 we do not make.
Honest picks by situation
- Solo examiner, 1 or 2 files a month: InjuryMgmt's $99 for 1,500 pages, or OctopusLM's 1,000 free pages then $0.10. Medrecords AI is not the cheapest here.
- You want the tool to write in your layout: IME Coach, which learns from 2 or 3 of your finished reports.
- New York no-fault and workers' comp: Aequitas, priced per report.
- Lowest published rate at volume: OctopusLM at $0.04 a page with a $4,000 load. Medrecords AI reaches 5 cents a page at 500,000 credits but does not bill duplicate pages, so compare on a real file.
- IME company with heavy, duplicate-laden files: Medrecords AI (ours), MediScan's Team plan, or InPractice's large credit packs.
- Literature for causation sections: OpenEvidence or ChatGPT for Clinicians. Neither replaces a record tool.
Tools we left out, and why
- Ambient scribes (Freed, Abridge, Suki and similar): built for treating visits and EHR notes. They fill the "best AI for doctors" lists that Google mixes into this search, and those lists rank them for treating visits, not IME reports.
- Insurer-side claim tools such as Nomad Data's Doc Chat and DigitalOwl: built for claims teams reading files, not examiners writing reports.
- Case management platforms without AI on the record: useful for running an IME practice, outside this site's question.
