Clinical decision support and ambient scribing for physicians, built on large language models.
Overview
Glass Health is a point-of-care assistant aimed at clinicians rather than patients. Ask it a clinical question and it interprets intent, searches the medical literature, and returns an answer with guidelines and research cited inline; feed it a case and it will draft a differential diagnosis, an assessment and plan, or a full history and physical. More recently it has added ambient scribing, so it now spans both the 'help me think' and 'help me document' workflows that used to need separate tools. It is best suited to hospitalists, primary care, and residents who want a faster path to a defensible note or a structured DDx. The important caveat is that Glass produces suggestions, not decisions: every output is a draft a licensed clinician must verify against the actual patient, and the inline citations exist precisely so you can check the source before acting. Like any LLM tool it can be confidently wrong, and it does not carry diagnostic authority. Treat it as a well-read junior colleague, not an oracle.
