What does setting a cutoff in a validation queue do?

Setting a cutoff in a validation queue is primarily used to categorize documents into predicted positive or predicted negative. This process helps streamline the review workflow by determining which documents are likely to be relevant and should be reviewed further, and which are not. By establishing a threshold (cutoff), the system can classify documents based on their predicted outcomes, allowing reviewers to focus on those that are more likely to contain important information or are of higher interest for further scrutiny.

This functionality is crucial in e-discovery and document review contexts, where efficiency is a priority. When a cutoff is applied, it enhances the review process by enabling teams to manage their time and resources better, ensuring they address the most pertinent documents first.
