HIPAA-compliant AI for healthcare teams
Eliminate language barriers in clinical settings without compromising patient privacy. Real-time translation, SOAP note generation, medical STT, and encrypted messaging — with the security controls your compliance team requires.
Security controls that eliminate compliance gaps
Every safeguard is architecturally enforced — not a checkbox policy that depends on user behavior.
8-Hour JWT Token Expiry
Session tokens expire every 8 hours compared to 30 days for personal accounts. Eliminates stale credential risk on shared clinical workstations.
15-Minute Idle Timeout
Automatic session lock after 15 minutes of inactivity. No unattended screens exposing patient data in exam rooms or nurse stations.
Zero PHI in Logs
Transcripts, translations, and personal health data never appear in application logs. Architecturally enforced at the code level, not policy-dependent.
AES-256-CBC Encryption
Audio files and all PHI encrypted at rest with AES-256-CBC. Encryption keys managed and rotated independently from data storage.
Secure File Deletion
Temporary files overwritten with random data before filesystem unlinking via secureDelete(). No residual PHI on disk after processing.
6-Year Audit Retention
Complete audit trail retained for 6 years via GCS lifecycle management and Cloud Logging. Meets HIPAA minimum retention requirements.
PHI Field Encryption in Streams
PHI fields encrypted within WebSocket streaming sessions. Data is protected in transit and at the application layer, not just the transport layer.
Root/Jailbreak Detection
Mobile apps detect rooted or jailbroken devices and restrict PHI access. Compromised devices cannot access healthcare features.
Purpose-built tools for clinical environments
From patient intake to discharge instructions — every clinical touchpoint gets AI-powered language support with HIPAA-grade security.
Patient Intake Forms
Drag-and-drop form builder with auto-translated labels. Create custom fields, validation rules, and multi-language patient intake forms. Collect responses directly in the platform.
- Drag-and-drop creation
- Custom fields & validation
- Multi-language labels
- Patient response collection
SOAP Note Summarization
Auto-generate Subjective, Objective, Assessment, and Plan notes from patient conversations. AI extracts structured clinical data from free-form dialogue.
- Auto-structured output
- Clinical vocabulary recognition
- Editable before saving
- EHR-ready format
Medical Speech Recognition
Deepgram Medical STT engine specialized for clinical vocabulary. Accurate transcription of drug names, procedures, anatomy terms, and medical abbreviations.
- Clinical vocabulary model
- Drug name accuracy
- Medical abbreviations
- Speaker diarization
Voice Profiles
Custom TTS voices for clinical consistency. Patients hear the same synthesized voice across all interactions, building familiarity and trust in translated communications.
- Consistent voice identity
- Multiple language support
- Clinical tone calibration
- Per-provider profiles
Offline Language Packs
Download language packs for areas with poor connectivity. Rural clinics and mobile health units maintain full translation capability without internet access.
- Downloadable language packs
- No internet required
- Full STT/TTS offline
- Auto-sync when connected
Document Translation
Translate medical documents including consent forms, discharge instructions, medication guides, and patient education materials while preserving formatting.
- Consent forms
- Discharge instructions
- Medication guides
- Format preservation
Everything a healthcare team needs
Conference rooms, diarized transcripts, encrypted messaging, and real-time call translation — all with compliance-grade audit logging.
Conference Rooms
Multi-provider consultation rooms with real-time translation. Multiple clinicians join a single session with a patient, each receiving translation in their preferred language.
Speaker Diarization
Conversation history identifies and labels speakers — doctor vs. patient vs. interpreter. Clear attribution in transcripts for accurate medical records.
Encrypted Provider Messaging
End-to-end encrypted messaging for provider-to-provider communication. Discuss patient cases with colleagues without PHI exposure risk.
Real-Time Call Translation
Live voice translation during patient consultations. Both parties speak naturally in their language while hearing translations in real time.
Comprehensive Audit Logging
Every action logged with user ID, timestamp, IP address, and action type. Tamper-evident records for compliance audits and incident investigation.
Healthcare Account Controls
Dedicated healthcare account type with specialized security controls, access restrictions, and compliance settings enabled by default.
Summary Templates for Healthcare
AI-generated summaries in clinically relevant formats from any conversation.
SOAP Notes
Subjective, Objective, Assessment, Plan structured clinical notes
Clinical Summary
Concise overview of patient encounter for chart documentation
Patient Education
Simplified explanations of diagnosis and treatment for patients
Meeting Minutes
Structured notes from care team meetings and case conferences
Key Points
Bullet-point extraction of critical information from conversations
Action Items
Follow-up tasks, referrals, and orders extracted from discussions
Defense-in-depth, not security theater
Multiple independent security layers ensure that a single point of failure cannot expose patient data. Encryption, isolation, and audit at every level.
Encrypted Audio Pipeline
Audio streams encrypted in transit with TLS 1.2+ and at rest with AES-256-CBC. Encryption keys rotated independently of data storage. No unencrypted audio touches disk.
Secure Deletion Protocol
All temporary files — audio recordings, transcripts, translations — overwritten with random data via secureDelete() before filesystem unlinking. Verified deletion, not just unlink.
Immutable Audit Trail
Every access, modification, and deletion logged with user ID, timestamp, IP, and action type. Tamper-evident, retained 6 years via GCS lifecycle and Cloud Logging.
Regional Data Residency
US-primary infrastructure with configurable data residency. PHI never leaves designated regions. Three-region deployment ensures availability without data sovereignty violations.
Session Security
8-hour JWT expiry for healthcare accounts with 15-minute idle timeout. Token revocation on logout, password change, and suspicious activity. No long-lived sessions.
Mobile Device Security
Root and jailbreak detection prevents PHI access on compromised devices. Certificate pinning, secure storage, and biometric authentication support on mobile platforms.
BAA signing, tracked and auditable
Before any PHI touches our infrastructure, we execute a Business Associate Agreement. Digital BAA signing is built into the platform — your compliance team can verify coverage status at any time from organization settings.
- Digital BAA signing built into the platform
- BAA status monitoring in organization settings
- Required for all healthcare account activation
- Covers all Vavus AI services: translation, messaging, voice, STT
- Aligned with HITECH Act breach notification requirements
- Full audit trail of BAA execution and updates
Business Associate Agreement
Required for HIPAA-covered entities
BAA execution is tracked in our database with full audit trail. Your compliance officer can verify status and request documentation at any time via organization settings.
