TWO NEWSROOM WORKFLOWS

Different newsrooms.
The right amount of AI for each.

The Piedmont Journal and The Mountain Eagle use QuorumScribe differently—and keep editorial judgment exactly where it belongs: in the newsroom.

01

AI DRAFT + EDITORIAL REVIEW

The Piedmont Journal

QuorumScribe turns meeting video into timestamped minutes and a strong first draft. Publisher Chuck Jackson checks names and figures, reshapes the story, and adds reporting that no transcript can provide.

VIDEOMINUTES + DRAFTEDITOR DECIDES
“I’m pleased when it picks it up within the hour. That’s been fantastic.”— Chuck Jackson, publisher
02

MINUTES + ORIGINAL REPORTING

The Mountain Eagle

Reporters use organized topics, transcripts, and timestamps as source material. They scan for what matters, jump to the exact moment, verify the language, and write the finished story in their own voice.

VIDEONAVIGABLE RECORDREPORTER WRITES
“It’s a heck of a lot easier than sitting for two or three hours and trying to read your notes.”— Ben Gish, publisher

FROM THE NEWSROOMS

Public-meeting reporting,
published in their own voice.

QuorumScribe saves the hours spent finding the story. The newsroom still decides what matters, verifies the facts, and determines what gets published.
