Lyrebird Health: cost, fit and limits
Lyrebird Health is an AI scribe made by Subsidio Pty Ltd, trading as Lyrebird Health, that records consultations and drafts notes, letters and documents for Australian clinics, with a free plan, a Pro plan and clinic tiers.
What to know first
Lyrebird publishes a free plan for everyone, a per-user Pro plan and two clinic tiers, Essentials and Premium, with GST added. Two Lyrebird pricing pages show different Pro prices and neither writes a currency symbol, so no Pro amount is quoted here. Free allows 50 actions a month, and Pro removes the limit and adds care plans and integrations. The vendor states Australian storage and no training on notes.

Who Lyrebird Health is best for
Australian GPs on Best Practice
Best Practice is the first integration named on Pro, and the vendor states that data is processed and stored in Australia, which suits a clinic with local residency needs.
Clinics that want billing capture
Clinic plans list MBS billing capture and a Document Sorter that files incoming documents, which goes beyond note writing into administration.
Clinicians testing a scribe for free
The free plan offers 50 actions a month, custom templates and dictation, enough to try the notes before choosing Pro.

What Lyrebird Health does
- Consult notes and templates
- Notes are produced in the clinic's custom templates, and community shared templates and unlimited macros are available even on the free plan, so a new user does not start from a blank page.
- Letters and certificates
- Referral and patient letters are drafted from the consult, and Workcover certificates are added on Pro, saving a separate step after the visit, for the clinician to check before sending anything out.
- Care plans
- Care plans are unlimited on Pro, capped at 20 all-time on the Best Practice free offer and unavailable on the Free plan, so the plan limits matter for patients who need ongoing plans.
- Document Sorter
- Incoming documents are filed by AI on the clinic plan, which targets the paperwork that arrives after the consult rather than the consult itself, which suits clinics with a heavy mailbox of referrals and results.
- MBS billing capture
- Clinic plans capture Medicare Benefits Schedule billing information from the consultation, which fits Australian practices and has little meaning elsewhere, which is a feature aimed squarely at Australian general practice.
How Lyrebird Health handles your data
Lyrebird's compliance page states that all patient data is processed and stored in Australia, and the privacy policy says AWS Asia-Pacific (Sydney) hosts personal information. No audio recordings are stored, and clinical notes are kept under the user's control, by default for 7 days before being wiped from the server. The vendor states that notes and transcripts are never sold, shared or used to train external AI models. Compliance statements cover the Australian Privacy Principles, HIPAA and GDPR, and no SOC 2 or ISO certificate was named on the pages read.
Where Lyrebird Health falls short in practice
- Two Pro prices. The /au/pricing and /au/lyrebird-pricing pages show different Pro prices without a currency, so the real figure has to be confirmed before a clinic budgets, so the real figure has to be confirmed before a clinic sets a budget or signs.
- Few integrations. Pro lists Best Practice, Cubiko and BetterConsult, the free plan has no EMR integrations and the clinic plans name none, so other systems rely on copying.
- Notes wiped by default. Notes are stored for 7 days by default before being wiped from the server, so a clinician must move them into the record system promptly.
- Australia-centric design. MBS billing capture, GST pricing and local integrations mean clinics outside Australia get little of the clinic-plan value, and a clinic elsewhere would pay for features it cannot use.

Lyrebird Health: common questions
What does Lyrebird Pro cost?
Two Lyrebird pricing pages show different Pro prices, one with a struck-through figure and a yearly total and the other with per-user monthly and annual rates, and no currency symbol is written. We quote no amount. GST is added, so confirm the price and tax at checkout.
How many actions does the Lyrebird free plan allow?
The free plan allows 50 actions a month, including transcription, dictation and consult notes, plus 10 documents and letters a month and custom note templates. Care plans and EMR integrations are not available on it. Pro removes the action limit.
Where does Lyrebird store patient data?
The vendor states that all patient data is processed and stored in Australia, and the privacy policy says AWS Asia-Pacific (Sydney) hosts personal information. No audio recordings are stored. A clinic with Australian residency needs can ask for that wording in its agreement.
Does Lyrebird train its AI on my notes?
The vendor states that notes and transcripts are never sold, shared or used to train external AI models. The statement says external models, so ask whether Lyrebird's own models use your data. The pages also did not name a SOC 2 or ISO certificate.
Which clinical systems does Lyrebird connect to?
Pro lists Best Practice, Cubiko and BetterConsult, and a separate Best Practice free offer is tied to a Best Practice subscription and an eligibility check. The free plan has no integrations, and the clinic plans name none on the pages read.
