AI Medical Scribes - User Interface
HIPAA BAA included on every plan

The AI built for clinical work

BastionGPT is a private, healthcare-grade alternative to ChatGPT. Use the latest GPT, Claude, and Gemini models on protected health information without your data ever training a public model.

  • HIPAA compliant, with a signed BAA on every plan, including the free trial. PHI stays in a private, isolated environment. Also covers PIPEDA (Canada) and APP (Australia).
  • The right model for every task, automatically. — BastionGPT selects from top models like GPT-5.2, Claude, or Gemini 3 Pro based on what each clinical task needs. Prefer a specific model? Switch anytime with one click.
  • Built for clinicians, not consumers — drafts notes, transcribes sessions, summarizes 1,000-page documents, and handles sensitive topics other AIs refuse.

Frequently asked

Frequently asked questions

If you still have questions, reach out to us via live chat in the bottom right of your screen, or schedule a meeting to speak with a healthcare AI expert.

Healthcare workers regularly interact with PHI. Because popular ChatGPT services, such as ChatGPT Plus, do not meet HIPAA requirements, accidentally including PHI when using other ChatGPT services is a HIPAA violation that can result in terminations and large fines. BastionGPT is Medical GPT, designed specifically to exceed HIPAA requirements and can be used with HIPAA-regulated data, including for advanced use cases such as AI scribes.
BastionGPT uses a special, secure version of the AI models that power ChatGPT that is not accessible to OpenAI or other 3rd parties that use your chat history for data mining. The data you enter into BastionGPT is kept private from OpenAI, and is not used to develop future iterations of ChatGPT. This is good news for healthcare users who can't risk leaking patient data to 3rd parties.
Yes, a 7-day trial of the Professional plan is available.
If you aren't satisfied with the service, we offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee. You can cancel your plan at any time.
To keep our monthly prices low, we have monitors and limits in place to avoid the use of bots or account sharing. However, normal human use of our system, including as a medical AI chatbot, does not trigger these limits.
Yes, select customers can add BastionGPT to their apps, provided the use case meets our ethics, safety and compliance standards. This helps power any number of safe use cases, such as medical AI chatbots. For more information, view our BastionGPT API page.
The tremendous growth and success of BastionGPT, the leading healthcare chatbot, wouldn't be possible without our customers telling their colleagues about BastionGPT. We do have affiliate programs, where customers can receive credits or commissions for referring other customers. For more information about the program, please visit our Affiliate Program page.
BastionGPT has been tailored to best meet the needs of medical professionals, including therapists and healthcare administrators. However, the tool can be used for other purposes. Because generative AI, such as BastionGPT, can occasionally make mistakes, it is not safe for someone who is not medically trained to obtain and use medical information without proper training or consultation from a medical professional.
Text can be copied or pasted from any filetype. However, direct document uploads are available for PDF, TXT and Word documents. Professional Plus or Enterprise subscribers can also upload images (JPG, GIF, TIF) and additional file formats (Excel, CSV, PowerPoint, and HTML).
The American Psychological Association (APA) has taken a position that they do not endorse specific companies or products. However, BastionGPT does comply with their guidance for use of AI, and has been reviewed by the APA across a number of key areas including adaption to psychological practice, safety, bias, security, and expertise. The result of that review was approval to exhibit at the 2025 APA Conference. For more information, please reference our APA Guidance on AI Tools article.
Our solution is built and maintained by experienced cybersecurity and healthcare professionals that have expert knowledge of healthcare regulations and decades of experience in maintaining HIPAA secure systems. The service is regularly scanned for vulnerabilities and assessed to ensure HIPAA compliance. Security information is available on our Security page, and additional cybersecurity technology documentation and architecture diagrams are available upon request. Additional information about our partnership with Microsoft can be found on their website or via Press Release. Feel free to schedule a call or message our team to speak with a healthcare compliance expert.
Our Terms provide for a standard HIPAA Business Associate Agreement for Covered Entities and Business Associates, along with the associated controls to ensure the safety of healthcare data. If you need this agreement signed via DocuSign instead, please contact our legal team. There is no additional cost. Custom ("redline") HIPAA agreements, however, are only available within the "Enterprise" licensing option.
Yes, this is available for all licensing options. If an additional FERPA addendum is needed, beyond what is included in the Terms of Use, please contact our team or request this from any member of our staff.
Yes, while AI is incredibly intelligent, and is getting better every day, it is not perfect. Users need to be aware of this, and carefully review answers from any AI, including BastionGPT. For more information about the various types of errors that AI can make, please review our Healthcare AI Use Case guide or contact us.
Multiple AI models power BastionGPT. BastionGPT is optimized to use the most effective AI model based on your query. This often includes licensed versions of GPT-5, GPT-5.2, Claude Sonnet and Google Gemini 3 Pro. BastionGPT has been tailored for healthcare users in many ways, such as minimizing the influence of pseudo-science and encouraging the use of evidence-based healthcare practice.
Free AI services often use low-performing AI models. Most customers, after experiencing the capability and intelligence of BastionGPT with the latest and most powerful AI models, can no longer go back to using other AI models. As a cutting-edge medical GPT solution, BastionGPT has been specifically designed to meet the needs of healthcare professionals. Additionally, free options often share your chat data, are not compliant with healthcare regulations, and are not designed for healthcare professionals. BastionGPT has also been optimized for hundreds of different healthcare and therapy uses, which allows our service to automatically adjust the AI model to give you the highest quality response. See how BastionGPT compares to other AI scribes.
Yes, BastionGPT provides access to the power of ChatGPT, and acts as a powerful assistant for every type of healthcare workforce member, whether that use is troubleshooting computer code, summarizing meeting notes, making suggestions to improve emails, or suggesting updates to company policy.
In prioritizing the privacy and security of health information, BastionGPT adheres to a robust framework designed to align with major global healthcare standards. We endeavor to meet key industry standards, such as HIPAA in the United States, PIPEDA in Canada and the Privacy Act/APP in Australia, ensuring the protection and confidentiality of health information. However, compliance can vary by region due to differing local laws and regulations. We provide documentation and resources for our services, and we recommend consulting those materials or contacting our support to verify compliance with the healthcare regulations specific to your region and situation. If your facility uses product-specific consent forms, those can be found in our Consent Form page.
Yes, BastionGPT will show a brief walkthrough of features the first time you log in on a new device. For a more detailed overview, check out our Quick Start Video Guide. If you are interested in an interactive "Lunch and Learn" session, you can also reach out to our support team for upcoming dates and times. You can find popular use cases in our Use Cases page, or via our community Prompts for Health site.
We have additional frequently asked questions on our Support site, or we are happy to chat via our chat system, email or a live meeting.
