Case Study: Inventus achieves weekend completion and reduces manual review to 2.5% with Relativity Assisted Review

How Inventus Culled 1.8 Million Documents to 2,100 in One Weekend

Inventus, a discovery management practice that supports law firms and corporate legal teams, was asked by client Thompson & Knight to review 1.8 million records under a tight year‑end audit deadline. After keyword culling reduced the set to 86,000 documents, Inventus turned to Relativity Assisted Review to rapidly surface the most relevant material and meet the client’s urgent timeline.

Using Relativity Assisted Review, Inventus ran a weekend training workflow with three expert reviewers coding by consensus and performed two QC rounds (overturn rates fell from 10% to 9%). In three days they prioritized the 86,000‑document set, identifying a 12% responsive set (10,320 docs), manually reviewing only 2,100 training/QC documents and ultimately reviewing just 2.5% of the original 1.8 million — enabling Thompson & Knight to proceed Monday morning.
