Quorum

Every room takes its own notes.

We ship you the cameras and a small computer for the back office. Quorum listens in every room, writes up the day, and answers questions about anything that was said or done. It all runs on the box in your building.

What ships

It arrives in a box. We install it in an afternoon.

No software to buy, no accounts to wire up, nothing for your staff to remember to switch on. You get hardware, we set it up, and the first write-up lands in your inbox that evening.

Ceiling camerasone or two per room
Small dome cameras with good microphones, mounted where they hear the conversation, not the hallway. Rooms that share a wall are grouped, so Quorum always picks the clearest mic instead of blending them into mush.
The back-office computerone, about the size of a sandwich
A Mac mini that does all the listening, transcribing and writing on site. It sits on a shelf next to your router, draws less power than a desk lamp, and runs the whole practice without a subscription to anyone’s cloud.
Install and tuninghalf a day, on site
We walk the floor with you, mount and aim the cameras, teach the system your staff’s names and your shorthand, and put up the notice signage.
Your assistantby email, and in a chat window
A write-up after every shift, and an assistant you can ask about any day on record. It learns the practice as it goes: who works which days, which clients call back, what keeps going wrong.
How it works

From a conversation in room two to a line in tonight’s brief.

  1. It hears the room

    Every few seconds, each camera reports how much speech it is picking up. Quorum keeps the best microphone in each room and drops the ones that are only catching an echo through the wall.

  2. It writes down who said what

    Speech becomes text on the computer in your back office, split by speaker and stamped with the room and the time. Silence is skipped, so an empty exam room costs nothing.

  3. It writes up the shift

    When the shift ends you get a brief: who came in, what was done, what was promised, what slipped, and what someone should follow up on tomorrow morning.

  4. You ask it things

    “Did anyone call the Parks back?” “When did we last see Biscuit?” “Where did the loaner scale go?” It answers from the record, with the room and the time, and shows you the camera frames when it matters.

The daily brief

The note you would write if you had been in every room.

It is written the way a sharp practice manager would write it: specific, direct, and focused on what to do next. This is an excerpt from a sample morning at a small animal clinic.

Quorum <brief@yourpractice>

Morning shift, Tuesday — 8:30 AM to 3:00 PM

Four rooms active, 312 lines transcribed, 11 patients seen

What went well

The weight-loss conversation in exam 2 was handled well. Instead of a lecture, the tech asked the owner to walk through a normal day of meals, found the second breakfast the partner gives, and set one change for the next four weeks. That is the version of this conversation that works.

What didn’t

The 10:40 dental estimate went out without the extraction range. The owner was quoted the cleaning only; the doctor said “likely two extractions” in the room, but that did not reach the front desk. Expect a surprised call when the invoice lands. Call ahead today.

The reception phone rang out twice around 11:15 while both front staff were in the back pulling a prescription. Nobody owns the phone when the desk empties.

Missed opportunities

A new client with three cats booked only the one that was sneezing. The other two are overdue for everything, by the owner’s own account. A multi-cat wellness appointment was one sentence away.

Two evening bookings could have been mornings. Both owners said “any time works” before being offered 6:40 PM, when you run on two staff.

Follow up tomorrow

  • Call the Nguyens about the extraction estimate before the procedure.
  • Pepper, 12 y DSH — recheck T4 in three weeks; not yet booked.
  • Order more of the 25 mg tablets; the pharmacy count was said aloud as “four left.”
Ask it

Ask about any day, any room. It shows its work.

Answers cite the room and the minute. When the question is about a thing rather than a conversation, Quorum pulls the camera frames from around the last time it was mentioned and finds it for you.

Who it’s for

Offices where what was said is part of the job.

Veterinary clinics

The owner in exam 1 mentioned the dog has been drinking more. The doctor heard it; the chart didn’t. Quorum catches it, flags a senior panel, and reminds the front desk to book the recheck.

Dental practices

Treatment plans change chairside. When the hygienist says “we’ll watch number 19” and the dentist says “let’s crown it,” the brief tells you which one the patient heard and whether it made it onto the plan.

Medical offices

A record of what the patient was told about side effects, who took the refill call, and which lab results were promised by Friday, without a scribe in the room or a microphone clipped to anyone’s coat.

Law offices

Intake calls, walk-ins and hallway updates, kept in one place. Know when a client was first told about a deadline, and who told them, before it becomes a question of recollection.

Jewelers

Which stone was shown to which customer, what was quoted for the resizing, and where the tray went after the 3 o’clock appointment. Ask, and see the frames from the counter.

The off switch

Every room has an off switch you can see from the door.

A large button on the wall of each room, under a light strip. When the strip is lit, that room is being transcribed. Anyone on staff can press the button, and the room stops being written down until someone presses it again.

Room 2

Room 2 is being transcribed.

    • Lit means listening. The strip glows while the room is being transcribed and goes dark the moment it isn’t. There is no in-between state to explain.
    • Dark means nothing is kept. While a room is paused, its audio is not transcribed, stored, or held back to be deleted later.
    • No app, no password. Whoever is in the room presses the button. They don’t need to find a manager or a screen.
    • The gap is on the record. Every pause and resume is written into that day’s record with the time and the room, so a missing half hour has an explanation.
    Privacy

    Recordings never leave the building. That is the design, not a setting.

    Recording a professional office is a serious thing to do. Quorum is built so that you, and only you, hold the record, and so that the people in your rooms know it is there.

    Processed on your premises

    Listening, transcription and video search all run on the computer in your back office. No audio or video is uploaded to us or to any AI vendor.

    Audio is not kept

    Sound is turned into text and then discarded, usually within a minute. You choose how long text and video are kept, from a week to the length your records policy requires.

    You own the disk

    The recordings and transcripts live on hardware you hold, not in our cloud. Cancel and we wipe it with you watching, or hand you the drive.

    Rooms can be switched off

    Any room can be left out permanently, or paused with the button on its wall for a sensitive conversation. Paused means not recorded, not “recorded and hidden.”

    Access is yours to grant

    Only the people you name can read briefs or ask questions, and every question asked is itself logged.

    Notice, done properly

    We supply door and waiting-room signage, staff notice and consent language, and walk you through what your state requires before anything is switched on.
