Typequick Pty Ltd (stylised TYPEQUICK) is an Australian courseware company specialising in the development of computer-based touch-typing tutor systems of the same name. The first Typequick program was developed by Noel McIntosh's AID Systems in conjunction with Blue Sky Industries in 1982, as a tool for teaching typing skills among users of new micro computers. The Sydney based company of the same name was founded by McIntosh in 19851, after buying out the founders and acquiring the software. The company has released products in multiple languages including English and Dutch, and sold particularly well in Japan. The company's Kewala's Typing Adventure saw the typing course re-envisioned as an adventure game aimed at a younger demographic.
