Clinical disclaimer
Vavus AI is not a medical device. Translation output should be reviewed by a qualified clinician before use in patient care, diagnosis, or treatment decisions. Vavus does not replace professional medical interpreters where federal or state law requires one.
15-minute idle timeout
Unattended clinical workstations lock quickly.
Zero PHI in logs
PHI is kept out of application logs by design.
6-year audit retention
Audit trails are retained for compliance review.
Fully offline
Keep PHI inside your environment with on-prem deployment.
The cloud is optional. Vavus AI installs on your own servers with translation, transcription, and clinical dictation running entirely inside your network.
- · Air-gapped install supported
- · Bring your own model keys, or run local models
- · Whole-organization licensing
- · Pricing scoped after a workflow and install review

Send the clinical workflow, the infrastructure you have, and the compliance requirements. We'll come back with a scoped install plan.
Start the conversationClinical workflows
Help patients understand care without loosening control.
Bilingual patient intake. Real-time speech translation in the exam room. SOAP-note dictation in the provider's preferred language. Translated discharge instructions. Encrypted provider messaging. Each workflow is reviewed with you before PHI flows through it.
Compliance posture
Guardrails before the first patient conversation.
Healthcare language tools are only useful when patients can understand care and operators can still trust the controls. Every Vavus healthcare workflow starts with a review of both sides — clinical fit and operational guardrails — before a single PHI event flows through the system.

Questions
Healthcare controls.
Is Vavus AI HIPAA compliant?+
Vavus AI offers HIPAA-aligned workflows backed by a signed Business Associate Agreement (BAA) for approved healthcare customers. Healthcare accounts use 8-hour token expiry, a 15-minute idle timeout, secure deletion of PHI assets (overwrite before unlink), zero PHI in application logs by design, and audit logs retained for 6 years. Onboarding requires review.
Will Vavus AI sign a BAA with my healthcare organization?+
Yes, after a short review. Vavus AI signs Business Associate Agreements (BAA) with approved healthcare organizations for clinical translation use cases. Request review from the Healthcare page or by emailing constantine@vavusai.com.
Can Vavus AI run fully offline for clinical use?+
Yes. Vavus AI offers a fully on-premises deployment option for healthcare and regulated buyers who need to keep PHI inside their building. Speech-to-text, translation, and text-to-speech all run on local infrastructure with no outbound connections. Online and offline modes can also be mixed per workflow.
What healthcare translation languages does Vavus AI support?+
Translation covers 200+ languages. The speech-to-text and text-to-speech layers each cover 100+ languages, measured as the union across our provider chains (Whisper, AssemblyAI, Deepgram, and Google for STT; Google, OpenAI, and Cartesia for TTS). A single clinical conversation can move across all three layers — patient speech captured by STT, translated into the clinician's language, then read aloud by TTS. Some niche pairs don't fully round-trip in voice; for those, the conversation falls back to text translation.
Does Vavus AI log or store patient conversations?+
Application logs never contain PHI by design. Stored audio, transcripts, and translations are encrypted client-side using TweetNaCl secretbox, so the server stores ciphertext for new content. Messaging uses the Signal Protocol end-to-end. Real-time speech translation is briefly plaintext in memory while STT, translation, and TTS run, then approved outputs can be encrypted before storage. Audit logs (who did what, when) are retained for 6 years to support HIPAA compliance reviews and do not include PHI content.
How is Vavus AI different from Google Translate or DeepL for healthcare?+
Google Translate and DeepL do not sign BAAs for general consumer use and do not offer HIPAA-aligned controls, on-premises deployment, audit retention, or PHI-free logging by default. Vavus AI provides all of these, plus medical-specific STT accuracy modes and clinical workflow patterns (intake forms, SOAP note summarization, encrypted provider messaging, real-time call translation).
