Preparing to draft your circular? Getting started shouldn’t be the hardest part.

Overview

Before the first word of your circular is even drafted, there's another project already underway. Getting every contributor, both internal and external, access to the document . IT tickets, software approvals, compatibility checks, local installs, and troubleshooting across different operating systems and setups. Days? Weeks? By the time everyone is up and running, you've already lost valuable time. Sound familiar?

For years, this setup and prep time was just buried as a part of the cost of doing business. Disclosure platforms were built for a different era, one where local installations, dedicated hardware requirements and ongoing IT maintenance were expected. In that era, these tools served their purpose well, but the world has moved. Teams are more distributed. Timelines are tighter. And the expectation is that technology removes process friction, not add to it. 

Open a Browser. You’re In. 

Quinn is a cloud-based SaaS platform. There’s nothing to install, nothing to configure, and nothing for IT to maintain. Contributors access Quinn through their browser, from anywhere, at any time. Onboarding is simple. There are no compatibility issues, no software approvals, and no plug-ins to manage. 

Single Sign-On (SSO) authentication means your team logs in with the credentials they already use. No separate accounts. No password resets. No friction. 

For teams that work on the MIC, this changes the starting point entirely. Instead of spending the first phase of the project getting people into the platform, you start with everyone already there. 

Security That’s Built In 

At Toppan Merrill, we believe security isn’t a checkbox exercise. It’s the foundation of every customer interaction, workflow and technology investment we make. Quinn by Toppan Merrill was built with security embedded at every level and is backed  ISO/IEC 27001 certification and SOC 2 Type 1 attestation. Combined with comprehensive audit trails, role-based permissions and robust governance controls, Quinn delivers the security, transparency and confidence organizations need when managing their most critical disclosure documents. 

The Bottom Line 

The tools your team uses to prepare the circular should make the process easier, not create a project before the project. Quinn removes the IT burden, simplifies onboarding and gives every contributor immediate, secure access from day one. 

Less time setting up. More time focused on what matters the most.  Perfecting the content.
