The artificial intelligence-powered veterinary scribe, ScribbleVet, has achieved SOC 2 Type 2 compliance, a security certification considered the gold standard for data security and operational integrity.¹ According to ScribbleVet, the goal in developing a secure system was to “help veterinary professionals care for animals without compromising on privacy or compliance."

The SOC 2 Type 2 audit looked at the systems, processes, and controls of ScribbleVet over a period of time to ensure the platform meets trust and security criteria. The SOC 2 Type 2 audit differs from SOC 2 Type 1 in that Type 1 only assesses a company’s security controls at one specific moment, while Type 2 evaluates these controls over the course of 3 to 12 months, typically. “ScribbleVet pushed to achieve the more comprehensive Type 2 in order to deliver a proven track record of keeping customer data safe,” wrote the company in a news release.¹

The SOC 2 Type 2 certification, developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants but conducted by an independent third-party auditor, confirmed the veterinary scribe’s compliance to strict standards for data encryption, access controls, risk management, and system availability, according to ScribbleVet.¹ In addition to passing the SOC 2 Type 2 audit, the company also completed an independent penetration test, or a simulated cyberattack to identify potential weaknesses in a system.¹

"We recognize that veterinarians entrust us with highly sensitive information every day," said Rohan Relan, CEO of ScribbleVet, in a company release.¹ "That's why we deliberately implemented rigorous processes and controls. Achieving SOC 2 Type 2 compliance is a promise to our users that protecting their data with the highest level of security is non-negotiable. Our goal is to help veterinary professionals care for animals without compromising on privacy or compliance."

The AI-powered veterinary scribe, which can generate veterinary SOAP notes and draft client communications within minutes, was adopted by the University of Florida College of Veterinary Medicine (CVM) in Gainesville earlier this spring. According to ScribbleVet, the school was the first educational institution to adopt the AI platform system-wide.²

"We chose ScribbleVet for its high accuracy and time-saving workflows, which allow clinicians to reclaim hours for patient care while seamlessly incorporating AI into student training,” Andrea Miller, associate director of operations at the CVM, said in a news release.² "This collaboration reflects our leadership in veterinary AI innovation, equipping future professionals with the tools to streamline workflows, advance diagnostics, and elevate standards of care.”
