Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Ginger

  • No longer sold as Ginger. It is part of Headspace, and ginger.com redirects to the Headspace organizations site
  • Bought by employers, health plans and consultants rather than by individuals
  • Pricing is not published

Ibex Medical Analytics

  • The European IVDR indication is broader than the United States position, where some applications operate under laboratory developed test arrangements rather than FDA authorisation, which determines whether AI output can influence a signed report.
  • It requires a fully digitised histopathology workflow, and slide scanning, storage and validation typically cost several times the algorithm licence.
  • Running it as a second read safety net adds a discrepancy resolution workload that departments consistently underestimate, and someone senior has to adjudicate every flag.
  • Coverage is limited to breast, prostate and gastric, so a general histopathology department still reads the majority of its case mix without any AI support.
  • Pricing is per case and unpublished, so cost scales directly with biopsy volume and does not flatten as the department grows.
