How your 10 analyses work

What counts as a successful analysis?
One analysis is used when your PDFs produce a completed, saved review with page-cited findings. A completed ‘Need More Information’ review counts: it identifies what you need to confirm. Uploads and failed attempts do not count.
What about multiple documents or amendments?
Submit the solicitation, exhibits and amendments together. Up to five PDFs in one review count as one successful analysis. Each PDF can be up to 15 MB; the combined upload must be under 50 MB.
Does reviewing or rerunning use another analysis?
Reopening or reviewing a saved analysis uses no additional allowance. A failed attempt can be retried and counts only when it completes. Completed reviews are preserved. To analyze revised documents or different business inputs, create a new analysis; it counts when successful.
What happens after ten successful analyses?
Starting another analysis waits until your next subscription billing period. You can still open your saved reviews. Your allowance resets each billing period; unused analyses do not roll over.
