Feature-by-feature.
The differences in detail.
Compliance depth: HIPAA, GDPR, PIPEDA, SOC 2 Type II
CoVet holds HIPAA, GDPR, PIPEDA, and SOC 2 Type II Type II certifications. If your clinic operates in multiple jurisdictions (US, EU, Canada) or your legal team requires explicit multi-regional compliance labels, CoVet's certifications provide that assurance. Coggo follows GDPR and encrypts all data, but does not carry HIPAA certification (note: HIPAA applies to human health records, not veterinary data in the US).
Offline mobile recording
CoVet allows you to record exams offline on mobile devices and sync when internet returns. This is valuable for clinics with unreliable connectivity or outdoor/large-animal workflows. Coggo requires an internet connection for recording and transcription.
Free tier and pricing transparency
Coggo is $99/vet/mo annually, with a free tier of 10 notes/month forever. CoVet starts at $99/vet/mo with a 14-day trial only. Coggo's free tier lowers the barrier to entry for solo vets and clinics evaluating AI scribes.
About switching to Coggo.
Do I need HIPAA if I am a US veterinary practice?
HIPAA applies to human health records, not veterinary records in the US. However, some veterinary practices choose HIPAA-compliant vendors for consistency with human health partnerships or client perception. Coggo complies with GDPR and encrypts all data; HIPAA is not required for veterinary practice.
Is offline recording important for my practice?
Offline recording is valuable if you have unreliable internet, do large-animal house calls, or outdoor clinics. If your practice is always connected, offline recording is less critical.
Can I switch from CoVet to Coggo?
Yes. There is no automated importer between CoVet and Coggo, but a clean approach is to start new visits in Coggo while keeping CoVet read-only during the evaluation. Anything you still need from CoVet exports as PDF or text, so nothing is stranded.
