Note Taking & Meeting Minutes
Our note taking services are for those times when you need to document what was discussed, agreed, and actioned during a meeting. Our professional note takers attend your meeting in person or join remotely via a dial-in line and produce an impartial and accurate record of what was discussed. A ‘near verbatim’ record is produced in the language in which the meeting was conducted and delivered according to your specifications. We will discuss and agree ahead of time what key pieces of information you want to include, whether an audio recording is permitted or not, and any other special requirements for the final documentation.

Types of Transcripts
Full Verbatim
This type of official record transcript includes every word and sound uttered.
Near Verbatim/Meeting Minutes
This is what our professional minute takers produce when no audio recording is permitted and they attend to create a live record of a meeting.
Intelligent Verbatim
This style is true to the voice and intended meaning of the speakers, while omitting fillers (ums, ahs, ers etc) to capture what is said rather than how it was said. Non-verbal communication, e.g. movement and gestures, can also be provided in transcripts created from on-site visits or video recordings.
Summaries
These transcripts are concise, relevant, and accurate while also shorter and more manageable. They are appropriate for many routine business scenarios and can also be executed to meet formal, regulated, evidential summary requirements. On average, a summary will produce around 40% less text and still capture the important points and messages.
