Structured policy comparison across every version in minutes.
The challenge
Comparing employment policies across multiple handbook versions requires extracting and cross-referencing targeted provisions from each document in sequence. Doing this manually is time-consuming and makes it difficult to spot how provisions have evolved.
The solution
Ask iManage extracts targeted provisions across all handbook versions simultaneously, presents the results in a structured comparison, and supports follow-up prompts to identify material differences, removed provisions, and areas where older risks may have resurface. This gives attorneys a focused analysis baseline before legal review begins.
From your Folder, Workspace or Matter, select relevant documents then open Ask iManage and Start a review.
Instantly scope to only the documents which matter, keeping your responses and citations relevant.
Run a focused extraction prompt against all versions, targeting provisions most relevant to the instruction.
Targeted extraction prompts allow you to drill-down into exactly what you need, safe in the knowledge that the text is extracted from the document itself.
