aiR for Review harnesses the power of large language models (LLM) to review documents. It uses generative artificial intelligence (AI) to simulate the actions of a human reviewer by finding and describing relevant documents according to the review instructions (prompt criteria) that you provide. It identifies the documents, describes why they are relevant using natural language, and demonstrates relevance using citations from the document.
A few benefits of application include:
Below are some common use cases for it:
See these related trainings, articles, and white papers:
aiR for Review offers three analysis types, each suited to a specific review or investigation phase.
Analysis Type | Description |
---|---|
Relevance | Use to find documents that are relevant to a case or situation that you describe, such as documents responsive to a production request. |
Key Documents | Use to find documents that are "hot" or important to a case or investigation, such as those that might be critical or embarrassing to one party or another. |
Issues | Use to find documents that include content that falls under specific categories. For example, you might use this to check whether documents involve coercion, retaliation, or a combination of both. |
aiR for Review's process is similar to training a human reviewer: explain the case and its relevance criteria, hand over the documents, and check the results. If the application misunderstood any part of the prompt criteria, simply explain that part in more detail, then try again.
The workflow has three phases:
Within RelativityOne, the main steps are:
When setting up the first analysis, we recommend running it on a sample set of documents that was already coded by human reviewers. If the resulting predictions are different from the human coding, revise the prompt criteria and try again. This could include rewriting unclear instructions, defining an acronym or a code word, or adding more detail to an issue definition.
For additional workflow help and examples, see Workflows for Applying aiR for Review on the Community site.
aiR for Review's analysis is powered by Azure OpenAI's GPT-4 Omni large language model. The LLM is designed to understand and generate human language. It is trained on billions of documents from open datasets and the web.
When you submit prompt criteria and a set of documents to aiR for Review, Relativity sends the first document to Azure OpenAI and asks it to review the document according to the prompt criteria. After Azure OpenAI returns its results, Relativity sends the next document. The LLM reviews each document independently, and it does not learn from previous documents. Unlike Review Center, which makes its predictions based on learning from the document set, the LLM makes its predictions based on the prompt criteria and its built-in training.
Azure OpenAI does not retain any data from the documents being analyzed. Data you submit for processing by Azure OpenAI is not retained beyond your organization’s instance, nor is it used to train any other generative AI models from Relativity, Microsoft, or any other third party. For more information, see the white paper A Focus on Security and Privacy in Relativity’s Approach to Generative AI.

For billing purposes, a document unit is a single document. The initial pre-run estimate may be higher than the actual units billed because of canceled jobs or document errors. To find the actual document units that are billed, see Cost Explorer .
A document will be billed each time it runs through aiR for Review, regardless of whether that document ran before.
Customer may not consolidate documents or otherwise take steps to circumvent the aiR for Review Document Unit limits, including for the purpose of reducing the Customer's costs. If Customer takes such action, Customer may be subject to additional charges and other corrective measures as deemed appropriate by Relativity.
aiR for Review's availability may vary by region, as well as the availability of the LLM model used. Once OpenAI releases an LLM model to a region, Relativity tests it and notifies clients before upgrading aiR for Review.
The following table lists the current LLM model available and date it was deployed to aiR for Review per region. Also listed is the current version of aiR for Review, which may vary by region.

The underlying LLM used by aiR for Review has been evaluated for use with 83 languages. While aiR for Review itself has been primarily tested on English-language documents, unofficial testing with non-English datasets shows encouraging results.
If you use the application with non-English data sets, we recommend the following:
When you view the results of the analysis, all citations stay in the same language as the document they cite. By default, the rationales and considerations are in English. If you want the rationales and considerations to be in a different language, type “Write rationales and considerations in [desired language]” in the Additional Context field of the prompt criteria.
For the study used to evaluate Azure OpenAI's GPT-4 model across languages, see MEGAVERSE: Benchmarking Large Language Models Across Languages, Modalities, Models and Tasks on the arXiv website.
aiR for Review has not been specifically tested for analyzing emojis. However, the underlying LLM does understand Unicode emojis. It also understands other formats that could normally be understood by a human reviewer. For example, an emoji that is extracted to text as :smile:
would be understood as smiling.
