Move your team from Abridge to Nabla.
Each person gets a short interview, then a personalized step-by-step guide showing exactly where their saved work, prompts, and projects land in Nabla — and the few things that need a manual step, walked through. You send one invite; nobody becomes the help desk, and nothing in Abridge is changed or cancelled. Want to see where you’re paying for both first? Run the free audit.
Both Abridge and Nabla Copilot capture the patient-clinician conversation and produce a structured clinical note without manual typing. To migrate from Abridge to Nabla: provision Nabla Copilot accounts for each clinician (web app, iOS/Android, or Chrome extension) and connect to the EHR via Nabla Connect (iFrame embed); clinicians should start recording encounters using Nabla the same way they did in Abridge — begin recording at encounter start, end it when finished, and review the generated note before filing. To move the other direction (Nabla → Abridge): request an Abridge enterprise deployment through your health system's IT or the Abridge team, then install the Abridge tab inside Epic (Haiku on mobile, Hyperdrive/Hyperspace on desktop); workflow is the same — tap Start in Haiku at encounter start, review in the Abridge tab. Neither platform automatically migrates historical note drafts; past notes already filed in the EHR remain there and require no migration. Clinicians may notice slight differences in default note structure — Abridge outputs are aligned to assessment & plan sections typical in Epic, while Nabla defaults to configurable SOAP/APSO/WCC templates; both allow customization.
- Warning: Abridge requires Epic for its deepest embedded experience (Abridge Inside); Nabla Connect supports Epic and 15+ other EHRs, so non-Epic shops can embed Nabla natively but cannot achieve the same level of Abridge embedding without an Epic contract.
- Warning: Abridge holds KLAS Best in KLAS and Market Leader rankings (2025–2026); Nabla currently lacks equivalent KLAS recognition, which may matter for procurement sign-off at KLAS-driven health systems.
- Warning: Abridge processes and stores data in U.S.-based data centers; Nabla is a French company (GDPR-compliant) and should be confirmed by your IT team regarding data residency requirements before migration.
Abridge Inside embeds natively within Epic via Epic's Workshop co-development program, giving clinicians a dedicated Abridge tab in Haiku (mobile) and Hyperdrive/Hyperspace (desktop) without any context switching. Nabla Connect embeds via iFrame into any of 16+ supported EHRs and goes live in days rather than months. Migrating from Abridge → Nabla: have your EHR administrator work with Nabla's onboarding team to activate Nabla Connect for your EHR; for Epic shops, configure the iFrame embed in Epic's App Orchard or via Nabla Connect's plug-and-play module; set up SSO/SAML/SCIM for single sign-on; validate that structured note export and chart push (vital signs, diagnoses, flowsheets) map correctly to your EHR templates before rollout. Migrating from Nabla → Abridge: Abridge Inside requires a formal co-development partnership with Epic; contact Abridge enterprise sales to begin the procurement and Epic coordination process — plan for a longer implementation timeline. In both directions, end-user training will be needed since the recording interface location changes (iFrame panel vs dedicated Epic Abridge tab).
- Warning: Abridge Inside is exclusively for Epic; if your organization uses a non-Epic EHR, Abridge cannot offer the same native embedded experience — Nabla Connect's 16+ EHR support is a material advantage for non-Epic shops.
- Warning: Nabla Connect uses an iFrame embed, which requires IT allowlisting and may conflict with EHR content-security-policy settings; Abridge's Epic Workshop integration is co-developed with Epic and does not have this risk.
- Warning: Abridge Inside for inpatient was announced as in development as of 2026-06-14; Nabla's agentic inpatient expansion is also in-progress — confirm GA status of inpatient workflows before committing either direction for hospital rounding use cases.
Both platforms surface ICD-10 and HCC codes from the documented encounter. Abridge's revenue-cycle product is a dedicated product line with automatic E&M level calculation, real-time inpatient CDI, and a Care Signals risk-adjustment tool; all codes are anchored by Linked Evidence tracing each code back to the patient conversation. Nabla's medical coding surfaces ICD-10, HCC, and MCC suggestions alongside the generated note for clinician review, exposed in Copilot and via the Core API. Migrating from Abridge → Nabla: engage Nabla's Proactive Coding Agent (in-progress as of 2026-06-14) for CDI nudges; confirm with Nabla which coding features are GA versus roadmap before committing revenue-cycle workflows; code suggestions are clinician-reviewed rather than auto-submitted on both platforms. Migrating from Nabla → Abridge: contact Abridge enterprise sales to activate the revenue-cycle product line separately from the documentation product (it is a distinct offering); set up Linked Evidence so revenue-cycle codes can be audited back to the conversation; configure the Care Signals gap-identification workflow before visits if risk adjustment is a priority.
- Warning: Abridge's revenue-cycle offering is a separate product line with its own pricing, not included in the base ambient-documentation product; confirm whether coding features are in scope for your contract before assuming parity.
- Warning: Nabla's E/M coding guidance and CDI compliance nudges (via the Proactive Coding Agent) were described as in-progress/roadmap as of 2026-06-14; Abridge's E&M level calculation is confirmed GA.
- Warning: Abridge explicitly integrates NEJM and JAMA evidence into coding decisions via Linked Evidence; Nabla does not claim equivalent medical-literature integration for coding at this time.
Both platforms handle multilingual encounters: Abridge officially supports 28 languages (including the 16 most-spoken U.S. languages such as Spanish, Tagalog, Vietnamese, Arabic, Korean, and Haitian Creole) and always outputs the note in English. Nabla supports 35+ languages and can output the note and patient summary in the patient's language rather than forcing English output. No data migration is needed between the two — multilingual support is configuration-free on both sides; clinicians simply speak in their patient's language and the note generates automatically. Migrating from Abridge → Nabla: verify your key languages appear in Nabla's language list before go-live; if your practice uses Nabla for non-English patient summaries, activate the patient-summary output and select the target language in Nabla Copilot settings. Migrating from Nabla → Abridge: confirm your required languages appear in Abridge's published 28-language list; note that Abridge's note output is English-only, so any workflows relying on non-English note output must be redesigned.
- Warning: Abridge's note output is always in English regardless of the conversation language; Nabla can produce the note and patient summary in the patient's language, which is a functional difference if non-English output is required.
- Warning: Abridge publishes ASR word-error-rate benchmarks (English 6.2%, Spanish 3.1%) providing objective quality evidence; Nabla does not publish equivalent ASR benchmarks publicly, making accuracy comparison difficult.
- Warning: Abridge explicitly states it is not a substitute for a trained medical interpreter; both platforms carry the same clinical-safety caveat but practices using the tool for interpreter-adjacent workflows should reconfirm this with compliance before migrating.
Both platforms let clinicians refine an AI-drafted note using plain-language instructions instead of manual text editing. In Abridge, Prompt Editing accepts free-form instructions such as 'Make the assessment more concise and make the differential explicit' or 'Add a Next Steps section below the A/P'; it can also fold in evidence-based reasoning from external sources like UpToDate using the same prompt-style workflow. In Nabla, Magic Edit accepts a typed direction or a preset option (e.g. correct the patient's gender, make a section more verbose/concise, or highlight specific encounter details) and regenerates the note section accordingly; it is also available via the Core API for developers. No migration of past refinement history is needed — each note's edit instructions are single-session and not persisted as saved prompts in either product. Teams switching directions should expect a different instruction vocabulary: Abridge prompts tend to be clinical-reasoning-framed (add a section, reference a guideline), while Nabla Magic Edit emphasizes tone/verbosity and field correction; train clinicians on the appropriate phrasing conventions for the target platform.
- Warning: Abridge Prompt Editing can incorporate evidence from external clinical knowledge sources (UpToDate); Nabla Magic Edit does not claim equivalent external-evidence integration, limiting its use for evidence-based note enhancement.
- Warning: Nabla Magic Edit is explicitly available in both the Copilot UI and the Core API; Abridge Prompt Editing's API availability is not documented publicly — developer workflows relying on programmatic note refinement should confirm API access with Abridge before migrating.
- Warning: The surface where prompt/magic-edit runs differs: Abridge may be accessible via the Epic Abridge tab (deployment surface not fully specified); Nabla Magic Edit runs in the Copilot UI and API, so EHR-embedded prompt editing must be verified for each deployment.
Both platforms auto-generate patient-facing documents from the encounter without separate clinician effort. Abridge produces a Patient Visit Summary (PVS) at roughly an 8th-grade reading level, generated in real time during the visit and accessible in a dedicated PVS tab at notes.abridge.com; the clinician copies it into the EMR to share with the patient. Nabla Copilot generates a plain-language patient summary and, additionally, a referral/addressing letter from the same encounter; both are selectable document outputs in the Copilot interface and can be translated into the patient's language. Migrating from Abridge → Nabla: no configuration is needed — select 'Patient Summary' and/or 'Referral Letter' as document outputs after recording; enable language translation in Copilot settings if non-English summaries are needed for your population. Migrating from Nabla → Abridge: the PVS appears automatically in the notes.abridge.com PVS tab during the encounter; train clinicians to copy/paste the PVS content into the patient portal or after-visit summary field in the EMR since Abridge does not auto-push the PVS to the chart.
- Warning: Abridge's PVS tab is at notes.abridge.com, a separate URL from the EHR — clinicians must manually copy/paste it into the EMR for patient delivery; Nabla's patient summary is accessible within Copilot and the Core API without an extra tab.
- Warning: Nabla can translate the patient summary into the patient's language; Abridge's PVS is English-only, which matters for non-English-speaking patient populations.
- Warning: Nabla also generates referral/addressing letters from the encounter — a document type Abridge does not currently list as a supported output; referral-letter workflows would need a separate tool or manual drafting if migrating to Abridge.
