Redesigned to run on the powerful and proven AccessData technology core, Summation is a web-based document, electronic data and transcript review platform that accommodates the spectrum of case and team sizes.

Summation offers both comprehensive early case assessment capabilities – data ingestion, processing, culling, export with load file creation and first pass review – and final review features – search, annotation, redaction, production tools and transcript support – in one product. This integration means that users can move data from the ECA stage directly to final review without creating a load file, exporting or re-processing. In fact, all stakeholders from IT to in-house teams to outside counsel can efficiently and securely collaborate in a single platform.

Summation Highlights

ECA

Summation features industrial-strength processing using AccessData’s time tested and powerful FTK engine. This includes high speed file and image ingestion with support for over 700 data types as well as modifiable processing options such as OCR, de-duplciation and deNIST support with extensive reporting options including processing, de-duplication, export, and search with real time status.

Search

Search in Summation is 4-D, meaning that users can index, invoke keywords, apply ECA-type filter facets, and refine with Excel-like column level filters to create a four dimensional search structure. Moreover Summation adds Boolean, stemming, phonic, fuzzy, in-document and white box concept search to the tool box. With search result relevancy ranking, advanced searching options and clear and concise search reporting, search in Summation is comprehensive and powerful.

Review & Annotate

Along with standard review features such as near native document viewing, email threading, and near duplicate comparison, Summation also has some truly next generation annotation features. These include redaction on near native files, which allows users to redact first and then image, meaning they TIFF a much smaller subset of documents – and ‘word-boundary redaction’ – meaning that instead of the redaction tool creating boxes that the user must lay over different pieces of text to redact a whole sentence, the user can actually drag the redaction tool over the sentence as if highlighting a section of text in MS Word.

Production

Summation combines the exporting power of an ECA tool with the functionality of a final review tool, meaning that users can export large native, image or blended data sets to multiple load file types, but still have the stamping and redacting tools necessary for a formal production to opposing counsel.

Portability

One of Summation ’s classic strengths is its ability to allow users to “go mobile” or take a case offline, make changes to it, then sync it back up upon reconnection to the network. This feature is particularly useful for road warriors or those who need to take a case to a courtroom or other location without internet connectivity.

Transcripts

Summation features industry-leading transcript support that historical users have come to depend on – including reports, color highlighting, condensed printing, transcript notes, exhibit linking and real time integration.
