Introducing Search Acceleration Technology
Centric Search now provides sub-second search performance, improved workflow, email analytics and seamless review integration.

Iterative Search and Culling
The volume of data involved in litigation is ever growing and Servient has recognized that effective e-discovery requires complex, multiple queries that are refined in an iterative process as the user’s understanding of the documents evolves through review of sample results. Centric Search provides fast search response, an iterative search protocol and quick statistical feedback. Servient’s search acceleration technology provides the horsepower necessary to power the query refinement process to tame the large data volumes involved in today’s electronic discovery projects.
Manage Complex Search Criteria
Along with the ability to speed the process, Centric Search also manages complex search criteria. This is an important attribute in that an effective search protocol requires multiple search queries designed to identify specific sets of documents. Centric Search simplifies the management of complex queries by allowing the lawyer to split the queries into logical segments, evaluate their effectiveness and combine queries at run time.
Enhanced Statistical Sampling
Integrated statistical sampling generates random samples to assess the extent of “false positives” returned by each query or segment of query. Statistical sampling is also integrated into the platform to allow verification of the effectiveness of the search and determine the likelihood that responsive documents have not been identified by the search protocol.
Advanced Email Analytics
Advanced email analytics have been incorporated by Servient to provide assistance in query generation by giving an overview of email addresses and domains. This allows for identification of common alias and alternate email addresses used by witnesses.
The Servient Difference
Servient sets itself apart from with ease of integration with our legal review platform, Discovery Compass. Centric Search allows the legal team to control the search and culling phase. Seamless integration with Discovery Compass allows for efficient movement from culling to review enabling a truly iterative approach to electronic discovery management.

Centric Search™ allows your company and its lawyers to collaborate and create a search filtering process unique to your case.
Unique Score
Centric Search™ considers each keyword as a separate component and dissects the search to provide statistics for each sub component to provide a unique score for each keyword. The higher the unique score the more likely it is irrelevant. We break the query up into sub-parts and create text classification algorithms to identify subcomponents that are likely to be hitting irrelevant documents. Servient hones in and points the user to more productive elements of the query.
