Heidi Health: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Heidi Health is an AI care partner for clinicians. It records consultations and drafts clinical notes, and its website also presents workflow tools as part of the offer. The product is used by physicians, nurses, allied health professionals and health systems. It is delivered as a cloud web application and as a desktop app for macOS and Windows.

The contracting entity is Heidi Health Trading Pty Ltd, based in Melbourne, Australia, within a group that also has entities in the United Kingdom, Canada and the United States. Its privacy policy states that information is stored in Australia, the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union (Germany and Ireland), Canada or Switzerland, depending on the user's region, and names AWS Canada Central for Canadian users. The company publishes a GDPR compliance page and a sub-processor list in its trust centre. For a European organisation, the Australian headquarters and the choice of storage region mean that the hosting location should be confirmed in the contract. The product is not documented as open source.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Heidi Health

Heidi Health is headquartered in AU, outside the EU. Contracts and data therefore also fall under non-European law. The GDPR applies through contractual terms, but in a conflict with local legislation you have less certainty than with a European vendor.

Heidi Health hosts data in OTHER, US, EU, CH. Exactly what stays within the EU — and what does not — is defined by the vendor's data processing agreement and sub-processor list, not by a setting you control yourself; check those documents for the precise scope, including backups, logs and support access.

Heidi Health is closed source and hosted by the vendor. The encryption keys and the runtime sit with the vendor and switching requires data migration. Ask about bring-your-own-key, export options and open standards.

What this means for your organisation depends on your whole stack and context. The free assessment weighs Heidi Health together with your other vendors and gives a total score, a heatmap and the main risk drivers.
