Workflow

Overview

CaseMark's Bulk Document Extraction & Review skill transforms large sets of legal documents into structured, reviewable tables. Each document becomes a row, and user-defined extraction questions become columns — producing organized datasets with source citations that enable rapid analysis, pattern identification, and reporting across entire document portfolios.

Manual review of large document sets is one of the most time-intensive tasks in legal practice. Associates and paralegals spend days or weeks reading through data rooms, contracts, and filings — manually extracting key terms into spreadsheets, risking inconsistency, missed provisions, and human error across hundreds of documents.

CaseMark automates the entire extraction workflow. Upload your document set, define what you need to extract (or let AI suggest a schema), and receive a structured table with every key data point, source citation, and cross-document analysis — turning weeks of manual review into minutes of AI-powered processing.

How to hand this to Para

  1. 1. Send Para the files

    Email them, drop them in a Teams or Slack message, or upload them.

  2. 2. Para runs the Bulk Document Extraction Review skill

    It works from your files and checks its citations against the record.

  3. 3. The finished document comes back

    Para returns it where you asked, usually as a DOCX, and offers the next step.

Para, run the Bulk Document Extraction Review skill for the Garcia matter. I've attached the Legal Document Set. Send the finished draft back here as a DOCX.

What Para does

  1. 1. Upload your document set — contracts, agreements, correspondence, filings, or mixed collections
  2. 2. Define your extraction questions or let AI propose a standard column set based on document type
  3. 3. AI processes each document, extracting key terms, dates, parties, obligations, and custom fields into organized rows
  4. 4. Review the structured table, cross-document analysis, and flagged issues, then export as DOCX, PDF, or CSV

Questions

What types of documents can I process in bulk?

CaseMark handles contracts, agreements, NDAs, leases, employment agreements, correspondence, regulatory filings, and virtually any legal document type. You can process homogeneous sets (e.g., all NDAs) or mixed data rooms with different document types.

How does CaseMark decide what data to extract from each document?

You can define custom extraction questions — each question becomes a column in your output table. If you don't provide questions, CaseMark automatically proposes a standard column set based on the document type, covering parties, dates, key terms, obligations, and risk provisions.

Can I customize the extraction fields for my specific review needs?

Absolutely. CaseMark supports six column types — verbatim extraction, free response summaries, yes/no classifications, dates, numeric values, and lists. You can tailor the extraction schema to match your due diligence checklist, compliance framework, or reporting requirements.

How does the AI handle documents with missing or ambiguous information?

CaseMark flags cells where information is not found, ambiguous, or potentially inconsistent across documents. Every extracted value includes a source citation so you can quickly verify against the original language and make informed judgments.

What output formats are available?

CaseMark can deliver results as structured tables, narrative reports, or CSV files suitable for import into spreadsheets and databases. You can also export in DOCX and PDF formats for client deliverables and internal reporting.

Is this suitable for large-scale due diligence reviews?

Yes. CaseMark is designed for exactly this use case. Whether you're reviewing a data room with hundreds of contracts or auditing a portfolio of leases, the bulk extraction workflow processes documents at scale and produces organized, reviewable output that dramatically reduces manual review time.
