Bibliographic Coding

Metadata captured at scale

Standard objective fields such as date, author, recipients, document type and title, plus any additional fields your matter needs, coded consistently with an AI first pass and human validation.

The challenge

A review platform is only as useful as the metadata behind it.

Field set: standard fields plus any your matter needs

AI

Searching, sorting and logging ready

Our perspective

How modern teams approach bibliographic coding

Scanned records, hard-copy productions and legacy files often arrive with little or no usable metadata. Without it, searching, sorting, privilege logging and exhibit preparation slow to a crawl.

Our proprietary approach lets AI draft the objective coding so large volumes move quickly and uniformly, while reviewers check and sample the output against an agreed protocol. The field set is flexible: we start from the standard bibliographic fields and add whatever your matter requires at setup. The result is clean metadata loaded straight into your platform.

Fields built around your matter

Standard fields such as date, author, recipients, document type and title, extended with any custom fields you need.

AI first pass

AI drafts the coding, so large volumes move quickly and uniformly.

Validated by people

Reviewers check and sample the output to hold quality.

How we deliver

Go slow to go fast

We prove the approach on a small sample with you first, then scale. Here is how the work flows, and where AI carries the load versus where our attorneys apply judgement.
