Auto-populate essential fields with generative AI
The essential fields model harnesses the power of large language models, or LLMs, to extract key data from contracts into Relativity fields.
By leveraging generative AI, the essential fields model auto-populates over a dozen key fields included in the Contracts application.
Some benefits of the essential fields model include:
- Reduces time writing regex, time training custom models, and time spent on manual first pass review to populate essential fields that cut across use cases
- More efficient and less costly contract review projects
- Included in current per document unit pricing for Contracts; There is no extra fee for this new model.
- With a focus on transparency and defensibility, Contracts hyperlinks auto-populated fields to citations in the document and populates rationale fields where appropriate.

Job capacity and size limitations
Based on the limitations of the underlying LLM, Contracts has size limits for the documents you run through the Essential Fields model and volume limits for jobs.
Size limits
We recommend only including documents with 150KB or less of extracted text. Although the LLM can handle some larger documents, most will receive an error.
Volume limits
The per instance volume limits for the essential fields model are as follows:
Volume Type | Limit | Notes |
---|---|---|
Max job size | 100,000 documents | A single job can include up to 100,000 documents. |
Total documents running per instance | 150,000 documents | There is a maximum of 150,000 documents across all jobs queued or running in an instance. |
Concurrent large jobs per instance | 3 jobs | For jobs with over 200 documents, only 3 jobs can be queued or running at the same time within an instance. |
Concurrent small jobs per instance | No limit | Jobs with 200 or fewer documents have no limit to how many can queue or run at the same time. |
Running the essential fields model
Contracts includes the Essential Fields analysis profile which has only the essential fields model. Whether you run the essential fields model with the Essential Fields analysis profile or with a new analysis profile that you create, the output will be the same.
To use the Essential Fields analysis profile:
- Go to the Contracts Analysis Sets tab.
- Click New Contracts Analysis Set.
- Name your analysis set.
- Choose the Essential Fields analysis profile.
- Select a saved search to run the analysis on.
- Click Save.
- Click the Analyze button.
The status of the analysis will appear under the Status section. Once complete, click the Refresh button to refresh the page and view results.
Using a custom analysis profile
To create a custom analysis profile:
- Go to the Contracts Analysis Profiles tab.
- Click New Contracts Analysis Profile.
- Name your analysis profile.
- Add a description.
- Add the Essential Fields model.
- Click Save.
After creating a new analysis profile, run analysis with that profile:
- Go to the Contracts Analysis Sets tab.
- Click New Contracts Analysis Set.
- Name your analysis set.
- Choose the analysis profile you created.
- Select a saved search to run the analysis on.
- Click Save.
- Click Analyze.
The status of the analysis will appear under the Status section. Once complete, click the Refresh button to refresh the page and view results.
Auto-populated fields
Following is a list of all fields that will auto-populate when you run the essential fields model.
Note: If you run the essential fields model and later edit the values of these fields, running it again will replace your manual edits.
