The analysis component of the Opus 2 AI assist feature extracts specific entities from the selected document and presents these alongside information that is relevant in the context of the specific entity.

The following entities can be analyzed and extracted from a document: 

  • Key points
  • Events
  • People
  • Organizations
  • Legal Topics.

It is possible to perform a document analysis both from the documents page and from within the document viewer. 

If you want to extract any of the entities that have been found during the analysis into one of your worksheets, such as the Characters or Chronology worksheets, this must be done from the document viewer.


Key points

Lists the key points of the document. The analysis will attempt to return around 10 items, the precise number will depend on the length and complexity of the text.


When using the Key Points feature, the Show Sources toggle can be selected to show or hide the source information at the bottom of each section. This information will show how relevant each source is to the summary when hovered over.


Clicking on a source page while in the document viewer will bring you directly to that section in your document with the source passages highlighted.


Events

Analyses the document for specific events. The assist feature will attempt to extract the following information, depending on what is available in the document: date, summary of event, location of event, name of participants, and description of what took place. If not all the information is available the event will still be extracted, with some fields left blank.


People

Analyzes the document for specific characters. The assist feature will attempt to extract the following information about each person, depending on what is available in the document: first name, last name, organization the person is associated with, job title, description of the person, and role played by the person in the case. If not all the information is available the person will still be extracted, with some fields left blank.


Organizations

Analyzes the document for companies and organizations mentioned in the text. The assist feature will attempt to extract the following information about each organization: name, and brief description. If not all the information is available the organization will still be extracted, with some fields left blank.


Legal topics

Analyzes the text for concepts or issues that would be relevant in a litigation or arbitration case. Examples of issues that may be returned are: 'medical malpractice', 'bankruptcy' or 'real property law'. The results are returned with a brief description and link to relevant page numbers where these issues may be found in the text.
