### 11 tools, four questions each

Processing model, turnaround, pricing model, published rate. Follow any vendor name for the full eight-row profile. A gold tag means the vendor does not publish that fact, which is itself worth knowing before a call.

Of the 11 tools above, **3** publish an indicative cost. Across all 326 vendors profiled in the Content Hub, 57 do. Every claim was captured on 13 August 2026 from the vendor's own site; nothing here is a Medrecords AI rating of another vendor.

HOW TO READ THE TABLE

### Four questions that decide this, and one that does not

Feature lists in this market converge within a quarter. What separates these tools is commercial and procedural, and most of it is visible before you take a call.

- **Who signs** Some tools produce a draft your own reviewer signs off. Others include reviewers of their own. Neither is better; they are different liabilities and different price points.
- **What the meter counts** Per page, per file, per user, per credit or per year. A seat licence and a per-page rate diverge fast once one file gets large.
- **Whether output is checkable** A summary you cannot trace back to a page is a summary you have to re-read the file to trust. Ask what a citation points at.
- **Where the records go** Whose cloud, whose BAA, whose keys. This is the question procurement asks and the one vendor sites answer least often.
- **Not: the model** Which foundation model sits underneath changes quarterly and tells you nothing about whether the output holds up on a file like yours.

### Where Medrecords AI fits, and where it does not

The row above is ours, held to the same eight questions. So is this.

#### What it does

Reads the file you already have: PDFs, scans, handwriting, the DICOM imaging rather than only the radiologist's report. Removes duplicates, flags wrong-patient pages, builds the chronology, and links every line back to the page it came from.

#### What it costs

Ten cents a page on Self-Service, duplicates free, no seat licence and no subscription. AI Enablement and On-Prem are annual licences. All three are listed on the [plans page](https://medrecords.ai/plans/) , in numbers, without a call.

#### What it will not do

It does not retrieve records from providers, sign an opinion, score a case, or decide a claim. It drafts and cites; a qualified human decides. Any vendor promising otherwise is describing a liability, not a feature.

### ISTA Solutions alternatives: common questions

By section and category, MyOutDesk and Open Access BPO are the nearest of the nine: all sit in the same services half of the Content Hub. The table compares each on the same eight published rows, and the published-rate column is usually where they separate.

No. No indicative cost appears in its captured content, which is the norm here: only 57 of the 326 profiled vendors publish one. Of the nine alternatives on this page, two publish a number you can act on.

It does not commit to a turnaround in its captured content. The table records which of the alternatives do; a vendor that publishes a number is making a commitment you can hold it to.

For the review itself, yes: a cited chronology in minutes at ten cents a page, duplicates free, with a human deciding what it means. Medrecords AI does not retrieve records from providers, so if ISTA Solutions handles retrieval for you, that part stays with a retrieval service.

Each row is read out of that vendor's Content Hub profile, which cites the public page every value came from. Where a vendor publishes nothing for a row, the table says "Not published" rather than guessing; the profile records the search that came up empty.

### Run one of your own files against the table

Send a real file. You get the chronology, the duplicate report and the citations back, and you can judge the output rather than the marketing.
