Plan by plan
Weave AI
- Weave subscription (all plans)The Terms of Service list the Business Associate Agreement among the documents they incorporate, and the BAA takes effect when the underlying agreement is executed. Neither document ties the BAA to a plan or tier. The BAA lets Weave terminate if HIPAA changes or a client agrees to restrictions that would cause Weave unexpected compliance costs.Signs a BAA
Podium AI
- Podium Services for HIPAA covered entitiesPodium's Terms of Service (version 6.4, effective October 1, 2026) say Podium and a client that is a covered entity or business associate agree to Podium's BAA, which governs PHI. The BAA text says it is incorporated into the Terms or MSA. No plan or tier is named. Podium must keep PHI held by subcontractors in the US.Signs a BAA
If you handle patient data
Either can work. Choose on features and price, then make sure you’re on a plan listed above and the BAA is signed before anyone enters protected health information.
A signed BAA is necessary but not sufficient for HIPAA compliance, which also depends on configuration, access controls, and your own policies. Verdicts summarize the vendor's own published terms as of the date checked; confirm with the vendor and your counsel before sending protected health information. Not legal advice.
