Open the original- What it measures
- The sentence follows the vendor's explanation that, with its own API keys, Superwhisper acts as a client to the customer's provider account. The vendor wrote it as guidance for its own product.
- What it does not show
- This is the vendor's recommendation, not a legal finding that the setup complies with HIPAA or any other law. A compliant setup also depends on the agreement with the provider, which the customer must have in place.
