Understanding Results
When an extraction finishes, Review Matrix hands you a grid of answers — one row per document, one column per question, one answer in every cell. This guide teaches you how to read that grid: what the typed cells mean, what the coloured confidence dots are telling you, how to jump from any answer straight to the clause it came from, and how the four views let you slice the same data different ways.
The shape of the grid
Read the matrix like a spreadsheet:
- Rows are documents. Each row is one file from your selection. The left two columns are a row number and the document name (with its file-type icon). If a file failed to process, its row carries a red Failed badge and its answer cells are empty — see the FAQ for recovery.
- Columns are questions. Every question you authored (or that Smart mode proposed) becomes one column. The header shows the question's short label; hover it to read the full question text.
- Cells are answers. Each cell holds Judicio's answer for that document to that question — already shaped to the column's type, with its confidence dot and a clickable citation back to the source.
Because every document answers the same set of questions, you can scan down a column to compare one data point across the whole set (every governing-law clause, every rent figure) and across a row to read one document's full profile.
Typed cells — answers in the right shape
Review Matrix doesn't return a wall of text. Each column has an answer type, and the cell renders the answer in the shape that type implies, so a column reads consistently top to bottom:
| Type | How the cell looks | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Date | A green chip with a calendar icon | 15 Mar 2026 |
| Amount / number / percentage | Plain text, formatted as written | 2,50,000 · 18% |
| Currency | A blue chip with the ISO currency code | INR (₹), USD, EUR |
| Yes / No (boolean) | A coloured chip — green for Yes, red for No, amber for Conditional/Partial | Yes · No · Conditional |
| List | A bulleted list inside the cell | each item on its own line |
| Summary / text | Formatted prose (bold, italics, and short tables render properly) | a one- or two-line answer |
| Tag | A purple chip drawn from the column's allowed values | Indemnity · Confidentiality |
The distinct chip colours let you tell types apart at a glance in a mixed grid — currency-blue is never confused with a yes/no green, and tags stay purple. To set or change a column's type, see Configuring Questions.
When a document simply doesn't address a question, the cell reads Not found in document as plain text (no chip). That's Judicio telling you the topic is absent from that file — which is often exactly the finding you were checking for.
Confidence dots — how sure Judicio is
Every answered cell carries a small coloured dot. It's Judicio's own assessment of how well the document supports the answer — your cue for where to spend review time. Hover any dot for the full explanation.
| Dot | Meaning | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| 🟢 Green | Clear — the model is confident the answer is well-supported. | Trust it; spot-check at most. |
| 🟡 Yellow | Ambiguous — relevant content was found, but the answer isn't definitive. | Click the citation and confirm. |
| 🔴 Red | Low confidence — conflicting or insufficient evidence in the document. | Verify carefully against the source. |
| ⚪ Grey | Not addressed — the document doesn't cover this question (pairs with Not found in document). | Usually fine; confirm the file really is silent. |
Yellow, red, and grey cells are the ones a human should look at — Review Matrix gathers exactly those into a flagged-cell review queue so you can step through them one by one. See Editing Answers for that workflow.
Use the toolbar's confidence filter to show only yellow / red / grey cells, then work that shortlist. High-confidence green answers rarely need a correction, so review them last or not at all.
Citations — click straight to the clause
Inside each cell, the answer is followed by one or more small citation chips (numbered 1, 2, …). The chip is your proof: click it and Judicio opens the source document in the Files panel, scrolls to the exact passage, and highlights it — so a single click confirms whether the answer is right. If an answer draws on more than one place in the document, each location gets its own chip.
This is the habit that makes the matrix trustworthy: don't take an answer on faith, click its citation and read the clause.
Judicio's extraction is accurate, but ambiguous wording or a poor scan can occasionally need a correction. Every answer is cited, so verification is one click away — and any cell can be corrected. See Editing Answers.
The four views
The same answers can be read four ways. Switch with the segmented view toggle in the top bar (Table, By document, By question, Insights). Your sort, filters, and search carry across the data views.
Table — the full grid
The default. The whole matrix as a grid: rows are documents, columns are questions. Scroll horizontally to reach more question columns. This is the view for side-by-side comparison — scanning a column to spot the outlier document, or eyeballing the whole extraction at once.
Click any cell to open the cell inspector on the right, which shows that answer in full with its reasoning, citations, and a Regenerate button (covered in Editing Answers).
By document — one file at a time
Pick a document from the list and read every answer extracted from that one file, question by question. Use this when you're working through a single contract end to end, or building a document-level summary, and want everything from that file in one place.
By question — one question across every file
Pick a question and see how every document answered it, listed down the page. This is the view for a single data point across the whole set — "Do all of these contracts have a governing-law clause?", "What's the notice period in each?" — and for comparing how different documents handle the same provision.
Insights — the answers rolled up
Insights summarises the whole run instead of showing individual cells. At the top, a stats strip counts files, questions, answered cells, cells needing review, and failed files. Below it, a per-question card breaks down the spread of answers, and a confidence heatmap colours the entire grid by confidence so clusters of yellow/red jump out.
Insights is interactive: click a bucket on a question card to filter the Table view to those files, or click a heatmap cell to open it in the inspector. A Review flagged button here jumps straight into the flagged-cell queue.
Sort, filter, and search
The toolbar above the grid works in every data view:
- Sort — order rows by document name, or by confidence to float the shakiest answers to the top.
- Confidence filter — show only cells flagged yellow, red, or grey.
- Failed only — isolate documents that didn't process.
- Search — type any text to highlight matching cells across the grid.
- Display fields — hide columns you don't need so the grid stays readable; hidden columns drop out of every view at once.
A counter shows how many documents match your current filters, and a single control clears them all.
While extraction is still running
You don't have to wait for the whole run to finish. Answers populate the grid as each document completes, and live progress shows on the Jobs screen. You can navigate away — Judicio keeps the run in your history and notifies you when it's done. See Getting Started for the run flow.
