Pricing

CustomMicrosoft does not publish self-serve pricing for DAX Copilot / Dragon Copilot; access is sold through Microsoft sales or authorized Cloud Solution Provider resellers, and pricing has varied significantly by channel and date. For years, authorized resellers commonly quoted $369-$830+ per provider per month plus a one-time setup fee (often around $650-$700), depending on contract size and minimum term. In a May 2026 marketplace restructuring, Microsoft published tiered list pricing including a Flex plan at roughly $604.80 per user per month (base license plus pay-as-you-go ambient use) and a higher uncapped Per-User tier around $1,512 per user per month (itself a 57% cut from a prior list price). A lower-cost "Physician Practice" license aimed at 5-50 clinician offices was briefly offered via the CSP channel at roughly $150-$160 per user per month before reaching end-of-sale on May 1, 2026. Large health systems negotiating volume, multi-year contracts frequently report effective rates well below these list prices. There is no public free trial for individual purchase, though Microsoft runs structured 30-90 day enterprise pilot programs for qualifying health systems.

CustomAidoc operates on enterprise contracts with hospitals and health systems — there is no published pricing or self-serve option. Pricing is customized based on hospital size, imaging volume, number of AI algorithms deployed, and integration complexity. Health systems engage through Aidoc's enterprise sales team, who assess needs, design a deployment plan, and structure a contract that typically includes implementation, onboarding, and ongoing support. Aidoc's BRIDGE framework with NVIDIA supports scalable rollout across multi-site health systems. Contact Aidoc directly at aidoc.com to request a demo or begin the enterprise procurement process.

DAX Copilot Pros & Cons

Pros

Broadest role coverage of any major ambient AI platform, spanning physicians, nurses, and radiologists in one product family
Deepest, longest-running Epic integration in the category, built on two decades of Dragon speech technology
Backed by Microsoft's security, compliance (HITRUST, SOC 2 Type II), and Azure infrastructure at massive scale
Extensible via a Developer Kit and third-party app marketplace rather than a closed, single-vendor tool
Strong, publicly documented customer outcomes (time-in-note reductions, added appointments) across large health systems
Available across multiple countries for physicians, with continued regional expansion

Cons

No public pricing; buyers must go through Microsoft sales or a reseller, and quoted rates vary enormously (roughly $150 to $1,500+ per provider per month across sources)
No self-serve signup or public free trial, unlike most consumer-facing AI scribes; enterprise procurement is required even for small practices
Historically the most expensive mainstream ambient scribe, which prices out solo clinicians and small independent practices
EHR write-back connectors for non-Epic systems are sometimes a separate, additional cost arranged through third-party partners
Nurse and radiologist experiences have more limited geographic availability (US-only, with radiology still in preview) than the physician product
