Question 1

What is Briefly.?

Accepted Answer

Briefly. transforms your voice into professionally formatted consultation letters in minutes. Simply record your consultation, review your letter, and send it with confidence. Built by clinicians, for clinicians.

Question 2

Is my patient data safe?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The 2025 Deepgram report found 72% of enterprise buyers cite privacy and security as critical. Briefly. was built with this as the architectural foundation, not a feature. All data is encrypted at rest (256-bit AES) and in transit (TLS 1.3). Patient identifiers are stripped before Briefly. generates your letter — Briefly. never sees a real patient name. Recordings are automatically deleted after 30 days. Your data is never used for model training.

Question 3

How much does Briefly. cost?

Accepted Answer

Briefly. is $179/month for unlimited letters, with a 20% discount when billed annually ($149/month). Founding members receive a lifetime 20% discount ($149/month, or $119/month billed annually). Practice plans are available for multi-clinician teams. All plans start with a 14-day free trial including up to 10 letters — cancel anytime.

Question 4

Where is my data stored?

Accepted Answer

Patient records and application data are stored in Australian AWS regions (ap-southeast-2). Some backend processing — such as transcription and letter generation — uses secure third-party providers under data protection agreements. All data is encrypted at rest with AES-256 encryption and in transit with TLS 1.3. Briefly. does not retain patient data beyond 30 days — we encourage you to export letters and recordings to your own devices or secure cloud storage. We comply with Australian Privacy Principles and OAIC guidelines.

Question 5

How does Briefly. compare to using a medical scribe?

Accepted Answer

Medical scribes cost $30–60 per letter and require scheduling, training, and management. Briefly. provides instant turnaround at a flat monthly rate ($149–179/month) for unlimited letters. Briefly. also learns your personal writing style — something a rotating pool of scribes cannot do consistently.

Question 6

How is Briefly. different from transcription services?

Accepted Answer

Transcription services typically take 24–48 hours and cost $4,000+/month for a busy practice. They produce raw transcripts that still need formatting. Briefly. generates structured, professionally formatted letters instantly with source verification — no waiting, no reformatting.
