Coggo or Scribenote?
Both are AI scribes for veterinarians with similar entry-level pricing. The differences are in depth — what each does beyond the basic SOAP note.
Scribenote is a solid choice for solo vets who want a simple AI scribe and a generous free tier to get started. Coggo is built for clinics that need more than one document type per visit, support more than one species, or operate in more than one language.

Feature-by-feature.
The differences in detail.
Six documents, not just SOAP
From one recording, Coggo generates a SOAP note, a flowing narrative, an owner recap in plain language, a structured surgery report, a referral letter, and ranked differential diagnoses. Scribenote primarily focuses on SOAP. For a typical visit where you also need an owner email and possibly a referral, Coggo eliminates a lot of additional writing.
Specialty depth — 17 medical specialties
Coggo organizes templates across cardiology, dentistry, dermatology, emergency, endocrinology, gastroenterology, neurology, oncology, ophthalmology, orthopedics, reproduction, respiratory, sports medicine, surgery, urology, wellness, and behavior. Within each, multiple species-specific variants. Scribenote works for general practice but has less depth in subspecialty workflows.
10 languages, human-translated
If your practice serves Spanish-speaking, Portuguese-speaking, or any other non-English clientele, Coggo generates SOAPs and owner recaps natively in the target language. Every translation is reviewed by professional translators familiar with veterinary terminology. Scribenote is English-only.
