Freed AI Problems: What Physicians Report and What to Do About It
Freed AI works well for many physicians. It doesn't work perfectly for all of them. Here's an honest look at the most common problems reported — and what your options are.
Most Commonly Reported Freed AI Problems
Note quality in specialist visits
Physicians in specialties outside primary care — dermatology, orthopedics, cardiology, psychiatry — frequently report that Freed AI notes require heavier editing than primary care visits. The AI was initially trained and optimized on primary care encounter patterns, and specialist terminology and examination documentation can produce notes that need significant revision.
Copy-paste EHR friction
Freed AI's core workflow is generating a note and pasting it into your EHR. For some physicians, this is seamless. For others — particularly those with structured EHR templates with many individual fields — pasting one block of text doesn't match the template structure, requiring manual redistribution of content into the right fields.
Note style and voice
AI scribes generate notes in a particular style. Freed AI's default note style works well for many physicians but doesn't match every physician's documentation preference. When the note style is off, editing time increases — which erodes the core time-saving benefit.
Accuracy in fast or complex encounters
Very rapid-fire clinic visits, encounters with multiple complex problems, or visits with significant background noise can challenge AI scribe accuracy. This is an industry-wide issue, not unique to Freed AI — but it's worth noting.
What to Try Before Canceling
If You've Already Tried Everything
Some physicians find that Freed AI's problems are not configuration issues but product mismatch — particularly specialists, or physicians with non-standard EHR workflows. In that case, a different AI scribe may be a better fit than continuing to edit Freed AI notes manually.
