Multi-Document Analysis

Extract structured answers from up to 50 documents with citations and confidence scores.

Multi-Document Analysis lets you ask structured questions across a large set of documents and get organized results with evidence, citations, and confidence scores. Upload up to 50 documents, define your queries, and Irys extracts answers into a reviewable matrix.

Starting an analysis

1

Open Multi-Doc Analysis

Navigate to Multi-Doc Analysis from the left sidebar, or use the Start New Analysis action from a Matter's Documents panel.

2

Add documents

Upload up to 50 documents by dragging and dropping, or click Browse Library to select documents you have already uploaded.

3

Define your queries

Add one or more queries that you want answered across all documents. For each query, select an answer type.

4

Run the analysis

Click Analyze and Irys processes every document against every query, extracting answers with citations.

Query answer types

When defining queries, choose the answer type that best fits what you are looking for:

Answer type	Use case	Example query
Free text	Open-ended extraction	"What are the termination provisions?"
Yes / No	Binary determination	"Does this agreement contain a non-compete clause?"
Date	Date extraction	"What is the effective date?"
Currency / Number	Monetary or numeric values	"What is the total contract value?"
Multiple choice	Selection from defined options	"What is the governing law? (NY / CA / DE / Other)"
List	Multiple items	"List all parties to the agreement."

Reusable query templates

Save sets of queries as templates to reuse across future analyses. This is useful when you run the same type of review repeatedly — due diligence checklists, compliance audits, or standard contract reviews.

• Save the current query set as a template.

• Load a saved template to pre-fill queries for a new analysis.

• Edit templates at any time.

Templates save significant time on recurring workflows. Build a template once for your standard review checklist and apply it to every new deal or case.

Results matrix

Once the analysis completes, results are displayed in a structured matrix:

• Columns represent each document.

• Rows represent each query.

• Cells contain the extracted answer for that document-query pair.

Scroll horizontally to compare answers across documents and vertically to review all queries for a single document.

Evidence panel

Click on any cell in the results matrix to open the evidence panel, which provides:

Section	Description
Source text	The exact passage from the document that the answer was extracted from.
AI reasoning	An explanation of how Irys arrived at the answer.
Page citations	The specific page number(s) where the evidence was found.
Confidence score	A rating of High, Medium, or Low indicating how confident the AI is in the extracted answer.

Confidence scores help you prioritize review. Focus manual attention on Low and Medium confidence answers where the AI may need human verification.

Jump to source

From the evidence panel, click Jump to Source to navigate directly to the relevant page in the original document. This lets you verify the extraction in full context without searching through the document manually.

Exporting results
