How the Note Gets Into Your EHR
Freed: EHR push in the browser
Freed's EHR push is a Chrome extension that sits next to the open chart and sends the note in with one click. Freed lists 13 EHRs: Athena, AdvancedMD, eClinicalWorks, Elation, Kipu, ModMed, NextGen, NextGen Office, OptiMantra, Practice Fusion, SimplePractice, Tebra and WellSky. It is included in Premier and Groups. A second option, EHR connect, is on Groups and works with athenahealth today. Source: Freed EHR integration.
VoiceboxMD: placed at your cursor
The Windows and Mac apps place the finished note into whichever field your cursor is in, whole or one section at a time, with a keyboard shortcut. That works in a browser and in installed programs. There is no extension, no integration and nothing for IT to set up in the EHR. Nothing is signed or filed for you, and the app does not pull your schedule, patient details or prior notes. On the web and phone apps you copy or share the note.
Where Freed Is Stronger
From Freed's own pages:
- Lowest entry price. $39 a month if you write fewer than 40 notes a month.
- No card for the trial. VoiceboxMD collects a card at checkout.
- Other languages. Freed says it captures visits in 14 named languages, including Spanish, Mandarin, French and Portuguese, and writes the note in English.
- Telehealth. Freed has a Zoom app that joins the meeting. VoiceboxMD records your microphone and does not capture call audio.
- One-click push into the 13 browser-based EHRs it lists.
- E/M levels and Clinical Evidence. VoiceboxMD has neither.
- SOC 2 Type 2. VoiceboxMD is not SOC 2 certified.
- Trainees. Freed's pricing page says "Resident, student, or trainee? Get Core for free".
Where VoiceboxMD Is Stronger
- No note cap at $49. Freed's unlimited plan is $79.
- Dictation on every plan. Hold a key and speak, and the words are typed into the EHR field you are in. Freed lists dictation on Premier at $119.
- Codes and letters at $79. ICD-10 and CPT suggestions, a referral letter, a prior-authorization letter, an after-visit summary and an orders checklist are on Power. Freed lists coding and letters on Premier at $119.
- Works outside the browser. The Windows and Mac apps place text in any program you can click into, including installed EHR programs. In Citrix Workspace on Windows the app types the text instead of pasting it.
- A BAA on every plan, including the trial.
- Phone to desktop. Record a visit on the iPhone or Android app and the finished note appears in the desktop app, ready to place.
On our own service from September 6 to November 5, 2026, the median visit recording was 13 minutes, the median draft note was 551 words, and half of the notes were ready within 29 seconds of the recording finishing its upload (how we measured). We have not run the same visits through Freed, so this page does not compare note accuracy or speed.
What VoiceboxMD Does Not Do
- The ambient scribe works in English only.
- It records your microphone. It does not capture telehealth call audio.
- It does not label who is speaking.
- There is no API integration or browser extension for any EHR. Notes are placed at your cursor, and the web and phone apps copy or share.
- It does not suggest an E/M level and has no clinical evidence tool.
- It is not SOC 2 certified.
- Citrix in a browser tab, VMware Horizon and Remote Desktop are not supported yet.
- A card is collected at checkout. It is not charged during the trial.
Which One Should You Choose?
Choose Freed if
You write fewer than 40 notes a month and want the lowest price. You see patients in other languages or on Zoom. You use one of the 13 browser-based EHRs Freed lists and want one-click push on Premier. Your organization requires a SOC 2 report. You want E/M levels or cited clinical answers.
Choose VoiceboxMD if
You write more than 40 notes a month and want to pay less than $79. You want to dictate as well as record visits. You want codes and letters without paying for the top plan. Your EHR is an installed program, or is not on Freed's list. You want a BAA on a single-clinician plan.

- VoiceboxMD's facts come from our product. Prices and plan contents match our pricing page.
- What we did not test. We did not run the same visits through both products, so we make no claim about which writes the better note. A trial of each on your own visits is the only fair test.
- Dated. If you find something out of date, write to support@voiceboxmd.com and we will correct it.
