Local AI
Basis runs on purpose-built hardware or computers your practice owns. Patient audio, transcripts, and drafts are processed on your network, and the clinician reviews every note before anything reaches the chart.
On your network
Most AI scribes send the visit to a company's servers to turn it into a note. Basis is different. It runs as an on-prem or edge/private deployment on the computer or device in your office, so the conversation, the transcript, and the draft never leave your network.
Cloud AI scribes
The visit is processed on hardware you don't control
Basis, on-prem
The visit stays on your network
Sending the visit off site is the path the HIPAA Security Rule now asks every practice to map, and the first question Medicare deployments raise. Keeping the audio on-prem shrinks the proof you owe. More in Where the scribe runs.
On-prem processing runs on a computer or device in your office, so patient audio never leaves your network to be processed.
Drafts become chart text only after you read the transcript, edit the note, and sign off.
Chart text, codes, and files use the EHR and PM access paths the practice approves.
A BAA is available, and the review log and version history stay under your control.
Benchmark
Basis scores ahead of nearby on-prem and edge/private deployment baselines on a standard medical test. The number reflects structured clinical tasks, not final chart quality. A clinician still reviews every note before it is signed.

Questions
The AI runs on a computer or Basis appliance inside your practice instead of sending each visit to an outside AI company's servers for processing.
No. Audio, transcripts, and drafts stay on your network while Basis captures and prepares the note. Information leaves only through export paths your practice approves.
Local capture and drafting continue on the computer or Basis appliance running Basis, so an internet interruption does not interrupt the visit.
Basis can run on a compatible Mac or Windows PC, or on the dedicated Basis appliance when the practice wants shared, purpose-built local compute.
Yes. Processing stays on your network, a BAA is available, and Basis provides review logs, version history, and diligence documentation.
Yes. Approved notes, codes, and files can move through EHR and PM export paths that are scoped and tested against your practice's instance before go-live.
