A polygraph records breathing, cardiovascular activity and skin response at the same time, and the examiner marks the paper where a question is asked. The chart above illustrates that. It is not a result and it reports nothing about any person.
Examining since. One of the country's established polygraph practices.
Breathing, pulse and skin response, all recorded at the same time.

How it works
Seven steps, quote to report
The whole process, written out, so you know what happens next before you commit to anything. There are no surprises further down this list, and no step of it starts before you have said yes to the one before.
-
Step 1 of sevenRequest your quote
Fill in the quote form and a formal quote is emailed straight back, usually inside two or three minutes. If it is not in the inbox, check the spam folder before you phone.
Free, no waiting -
Step 2 of sevenSecure the slot
Pay in full by EFT, or put down an 85% deposit, using your quote number as the reference. The time slot is held for you the moment the payment reflects.
-
Step 3 of sevenBook the appointment
Choose a time online with any examiner on the team. Bookings open once the quote is in hand.
Quote first -
Step 4 of sevenConsultation first
The examiner sits with you on the day, before anything is switched on, and works through the process and every question. Nobody is tested on a question they have not already seen.
-
Step 5 of sevenThe examination
The test is conducted once the consultation is done, in the same appointment and on calibrated equipment, so nothing is rescheduled and nobody waits for a second visit.
-
Step 6 of sevenSettle the account
The balance is paid. Reports are released only once the final payment has been received, which is the same for every client and every matter we take on.
-
Step 7 of sevenYour full report
The full and final report, carrying the results, is sent through to you in writing. It is your document: put it in front of a hearing, an attorney or a board.

None of the above starts until you have a quote in writing, and the quote is free.
Why clients choose us
Evidence work, handled properly
A polygraph result gets used to make a decision about somebody, so how the examination is run matters as much as what it finds.
A published code of ethics
Our examiners hold to the code of ethics of the American Polygraph Association, and to the civil rights of every person tested.
The examiner travels
Examinations run at your premises, at your attorney's offices, or in our own examination room, at whatever time the matter actually allows.
A solar powered unit
The examination vehicle carries its own solar power, so the instrument runs wherever the appointment happens to be.
Findings in writing
Every matter closes with a full written report carrying the results, so there is a document to act on rather than a phone call to remember.
What we test
Six kinds of examination
A polygraph test is not one product. What gets asked, and how the questions are built, depends entirely on why you are testing.
-
Specific issue testing
One allegation, one examination. Used where something particular has happened: stock gone missing, a leak, or two irreconcilable accounts of the same event.
-
Pre-employment testing
Run before a candidate starts, built around the risks the role actually carries rather than a generic list of questions.
-
Periodic and screening tests
Scheduled testing across a team or a department, so integrity is checked on a cycle instead of only after a loss has already been taken.
-
Infidelity testing
Private matters handled privately. Booked directly with you, examined discreetly, and reported to you and to nobody else.
-
CCMA presentation
Findings prepared and presented so they can be put in front of a hearing, with the examiner able to speak to how the examination was conducted.
-
Calibration of equipment
Calibration of polygraph equipment, so the instrument every result depends on is known to be reading correctly before it is trusted.

Four services, each with a page of its own. Start with the one closest to your matter, or ask us and we will point you at the right one.

Where we work
Your polygraph test comes to you
Most examinations are lost before they start, because getting six people to an office on the same morning is harder than the test itself. So we bring the examination to the matter instead.
At your premises. Testing runs where the people already are, so a shift is not written off to send a team across town.
In our own examination room. A quiet, controlled space for the matters that need one, or for a client who would rather not be tested at work.
In the examination vehicle. Solar powered, so an appointment does not depend on the site having a plug that works.
Service area, to confirm with you
This block will name your office city, the suburbs you want to rank for, and how far the team travels. It is left blank on purpose. Nothing about your location is claimed on this page until you have confirmed it.
In their own words
Recordings, not adjectives
Anyone can write a testimonial. These are the recordings and the reviews themselves, published exactly as they came in.
A client testimonial
Recorded and shared by the client after the matter closed.
Confession recordings
Three admissions made during examinations, published with permission.
Beyond the chart
A full investigation team
Some matters need more than an examination. Our investigation team has worked serious cases over the last 28 years and takes on the ones that need people on the ground as well as a result on paper.
Fraud
Where the money went, and who moved it.
Theft
Stock, cash and asset losses, traced to a source.
Infidelity
Private matters, handled with complete discretion.
High qualified cases
Complex matters that need a specialist brief.
Investigations are quoted case by case. Phone the office and the team leader will consult with you, work through the facts, and come back with a full quote.

Questions we are asked
Before you book
The eight questions that come up on nearly every first phone call, answered here so you do not have to make the call to find out.
Not answered here?
Send the details of the matter and we will tell you which examination fits it before you commit to anything.
How accurate is a polygraph test?
Spot on Polygraph quotes an accuracy of 98.90% for polygraph testing. The instrument records the channels, but the examiner builds the questions, runs the consultation and reads the chart, so a machine reading is never the last word on its own.
Do we have to come to your office?
No. The examiner travels to you, and most examinations are run at the client's own premises or at their attorney's offices. There is an examination room at our office for anyone who would rather not be tested at work, and the examination vehicle covers the appointments that are nowhere near either.
How long does the examination take?
Allow about an hour for the examination itself. The consultation with the examiner happens on the same day, immediately before it, so budget for the appointment rather than for the hour alone.
When do we get the report?
The full and final report, with the results, is sent through within 12 to 24 hours of the examination. Reports are released once the account has been settled in full.
What does the polygraph actually record?
Three channels at the same time: breathing, cardiovascular activity and skin response. The examiner marks the chart at the point each question is asked, so every reaction can be read against the question that produced it. The instrument records, the examiner interprets.
How does payment work?
A written quote comes first and it is free. A deposit or a full payment against that quote secures the time slot, using the quote number as the reference. The balance is settled before the report is released, which is the same for every client.
Can the findings be used at the CCMA?
Yes. CCMA presentation is one of the services, so the findings are prepared and presented in a form that can be put in front of a hearing, and the examiner can speak to how the examination was conducted. Labour assistance is available alongside it for employers taking a matter forward.
Will the test be discussed with anyone else?
No. Results go to the client who commissioned the examination and to nobody else. Private matters, including infidelity testing, are booked directly with you and reported directly back to you.
