Once ISEEK has been used to pinpoint the required data and reduce the volume for further review it enables multiple encrypted results containers to have their contents extracted in a number of different formats (with optional XML metadata) for ingesting by a review tool. These formats include generic load files and a Relativity-specific load file.
