Using @ to Control Document Selection#
Today we're showing you the @ function—your tool for taking control of exactly which documents get analyzed.
The Challenge: Why Doesn't "All" Mean All?#
When you ask the AI to analyze "all documents" in the Search bar (whether on the Documents or Interviews page), you may notice it focuses on only a subset of your materials.
This is by design. The AI ranks your documents and prioritizes those most likely to answer your question, giving you focused results.
You can always see what's included by checking the document list in the table below the AI's response.
The Constraint: Follow-Up Questions Stay Within the Subset#
Here's the catch: When you enter a follow-up instruction, the AI continues working within that same subset from the table.
It won't automatically expand to other documents—even if they may be relevant to your new question.
The Solution: Use @ to Force Document Inclusion#
The @ function lets you manually select which documents the AI must include in its analysis.
How it works:
- Type @ in the Search bar
- A dropdown list of your documents appears
- Select the document(s) you want to ensure are included
- Keep entering @ to add more documents
- Add your instruction after the document selections
Example: "@Interview-Smith @Email-Thread-March @Performance-Review Analyze these for evidence of retaliation."
When to Use @#
Use the @ function when you:
- Know specific documents should be analyzed but weren't included automatically
- Want to expand analysis beyond the initial subset
- Need to compare specific documents directly
- Want complete control over what gets reviewed

Bottom line: Start broad to see what the AI prioritizes, then use @ to ensure nothing important gets left out of your analysis.
