Corpus Review — Getting Started

Your first thirty minutes.

Corpus Review rewards a methodical start. This walkthrough takes one small document set from import to a sourced export — the full loop, on your own machine, in about half an hour.


01

Start with a small, real set

Pick ten to fifty documents from a matter you know well — records, discovery, exhibits. A familiar set makes it obvious when the tool is doing its job. Create a project and point it at the folder; OCR makes scanned pages searchable.

02

Read, and mark your first passage

Open a document and highlight a passage that matters. Tag it, then notice what Corpus Review recorded: page, paragraph, character offset — provenance you never have to reconstruct.

03

Make your first cross-reference

Find a second passage that corroborates — or contradicts — the first, and link the two. This is the core move in Corpus Review: claims connected to evidence across documents.

04

Tag two dated events

Mark two passages that describe things that happened, and tag their dates. They drop into a chronology, each entry still linked to its source page.

05

Export and inspect

Export the report and read it the way opposing counsel would. Every assertion traces back to its exact origin — this work product is what the trial is really evaluating.

06

Now bring the real matter

The loop you just ran is the whole method — the rest is scale. If anything resists, request a walkthrough and we will work through your own documents together.

Want to walk it through with us? Bring one document problem and we will show how Corpus Review organises the set around it, in a 30–45 minute screen share.
