Insights

Insights is a simple analytics and visualizations tool used to identify the most frequently occurring classification codes, assignees, and inventors within a search result or a saved list.

The Insights tool generates tables and graphs showing the number and percentage of documents that are associated with different data points within the selected/saved results set.

Multiple options to access Insights are available and it is possible to analyze search sets or selected records either by selecting the records of relevance from the results list or by adding them to the Saved list.

Please note that if a search set is larger than 10.000 hits, only the first 10.000 records are included in the Insights.

Within the right hand column, data visualizations are displayed, at the top a Tree map and below a Bar chart.

Creating a search from Insights

Within each data point tab, options can be selected to be added in the “Create command” box found in the bottom left of the screen. It is possible to include data from multiple tabs. If data from multiple tabs is included, they are by default combined with Boolean operator OR, however it is possible to edit the search before running, should another Boolean operator be needed.

Once the command has been created, it is possible to run in the background, whereby the search will be populated in the Timeline and the Insights can be further explored without leaving the page.

Select the Clear selection after running option to be able to create further searches from the Insights.
