Concept-based Review for eDiscovery

Quickly identify groups of documents relevant to the matter using topical concept folders for accelerated case assessment and efficient review.

Concept Folders Accelerate Review

The Stratify Legal Discovery™ service automatically sorts documents into concept folders to maximize review rates, provide efficient management of complex litigation and facilitate early case assessment. Concept folders identify what documents are about rather than simply what keywords occur within them. Concept folders, ordered hierarchically based on their interrelationships, provide attorneys and reviewers a gateway to highly productive review and analysis. Stratify’s concept organization provides an intuitive understanding of the structure of the matter, identifying conceptual groupings of documents of which attorneys may be unaware.

Identify Relevant Documents

Concept folders enable attorneys to quickly identify relevant groupings of documents faster and with greater accuracy than if they were moving across a disparate set of documents. They can easily focus on documents within a specific concept folder or take advantage of the relationships between folders to select documents across an entire subtree of the hierarchy — all without conducting any searches of their own. Spam emails, inter-office party memos, IT emails, etc. are all grouped together and can be handled as appropriate.

As additional batches of documents are processed into a matter, new concepts and their documents are contextually inserted at the appropriate location in the hierarchy based on their meaning.

Combine Concept Organization and Search

Concept organization supplements traditional search techniques. Stratify enhances traditional search by automatically bucketing search results into pertinent concept folders, minimizing the need to refine searches to find relevant documents.

Use Concept Folders to Efficiently Assign Tasks

Attorneys and/or case administrators can use concept folders to efficiently assign documents to reviewers. They can also ensure documents are assigned only once, while taking advantage of the concept hierarchy to create reviewer tasks.

Combine Concept Organization and Filters

The Stratify Legal Discovery service allows reviewers to filter the entire document collection organized in the concept hierarchy. Attorneys can filter documents by a variety of criteria including date, tag, document source, and production sets. They can then review specific sets of documents based on how they are distributed across the entire concept hierarchy.
