What we do for Scottsdale clients
Transcription, human-verified or AI-only
Upload audio or video, or dictate straight into the browser. You choose per job whether a person checks the transcript against the recording before you get it, and the finished document records which mode produced it — so you can always tell whether anyone reviewed it.
Dictate a form and get the form back
Upload a blank form, talk through the answers, and we write them into that same document in its own layout — not a summary of what you said. Every extracted field carries a confidence score and the quote from your dictation it came from.
A record that survives an audit
When someone approves a document we store who they were, a SHA-256 digest of exactly the content they saw, the version, and the time — plus how long elapsed between the transcript becoming available and the signature. You can export that certificate and a recipient can verify the digest without us.

What Arizona law requires
Medical records
Arizona sets a single clear period and applies it broadly. Under A.R.S. § 12-2297 a health care provider must retain the original or a copy of a patient's medical records for at least six years after the last date the adult patient received services. For a minor the period runs to whichever is later: three years after the patient turns eighteen, or six years after the last service - which in practice can mean holding a paediatric record for twenty-one years. Two details matter for anyone producing transcribed documentation. Source data must be kept for at least six years after collection but may be held separately from the medical record itself, so a transcript or recording that is not filed in the chart is still within the duty. And the statute addresses succession directly: a provider who retires or sells a practice must take reasonable measures to ensure the records continue to be retained. The obligation attaches to providers generally rather than to physicians alone, reaching dentists, chiropractors, physical therapists and naturopathic physicians among others.
- A.R.S. § 12-2297 (retention of records; six years after last adult service)
- A.R.S. § 12-2297 (minors: later of three years past majority or six years from last service)
- A.R.S. § 12-2297 (source data retained six years, may be held apart from the record; duty on retirement or sale)
Legal transcripts
Arizona requires a licence to work as a court reporter. Skills examination thresholds are set by category rather than as a single speed: 225 words per minute for question and answer, 200 for jury charge, and 180 for literary material. The state accepts the NCRA Registered Professional Reporter examination in place of its own skills test, so a reporter holding the RPR can generally qualify without re-sitting the state exam.

- RPR accepted in lieu of state skills examination
