How Does Parley Ingest and Use Evidence?
1. Automated Extraction and Structuring
-
Parley accepts uploads (PDF, DOC, DOCX, etc.) from common sources (Dropbox, Google Drive, local PCs).
-
AI parses each document, extracting structured data (e.g., dates, titles, institutions, achievements).
-
Contextual metadata, such as role descriptions or article citations, are also extracted.
2. Contextual Relevance Analysis
-
Extracted facts are mapped against specific visa petition criteria (e.g., for O-1: "original contributions" or "published material").
-
The system classifies content to align evidence under legal standards set by the USCIS.
3. Evidence Integration in Drafting
-
Details from ingested documents are automatically inserted into support letters, petitions, RFE responses, and exhibit lists.
-
Reference quotations or summary statements are pulled from documents and cited in the draft.
-
Parley keeps track of sources for compliance and audit.
4. Exhibit Compilation and Organization
-
Multiple files are programmatically sorted and combined into single PDFs, with automated exhibit indexes.
-
Attorneys can review, reorder, and export finished evidence packets, ready for filing.
5. Learning Writing Style and Preferences
- System adapts over time; as attorneys review and edit drafts, the AI learns to reflect individual and firm style in evidence presentation and narrative.
