Why this helps
Document workflows can accumulate specialist language without a clear moment to review it or resolve what it means.
- Consolidate selected document vocabulary into a single report
- Retrieve definitions and related word information
- Make terminology review part of an existing recurring routine

- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real document and confirm the digest is useful.
Questions about this workflow
Which document types does this cover?
Affinda's connected document workflows determine which documents and extracted text are available. The instruction can focus on the document types in your setup.
Will it create a glossary for every word?
You can instruct Notis to select only unusual or domain-specific terms so the digest stays focused.
