On Time Typing, Editing and Proofreading has five scribes and minute-takers,  based in Darwin (NT), Gippsland (VIC), Cairns (QLD) and Toowoomba (QLD).

Our verbatim scribes have passed the On Time Typing On-site Scribing Accuracy Test, and can type what you say as fast as you speak, then produce an almost-verbatim report or transcript.
