With its built-in artificial intelligence (AI) functions, DEVONthink can be used to analyze the documents in your databases.

The Concordance function allows you to view a list of all the words contained in a document or database. Selecting a word highlights the word in the current document. Additionally, a graph of related words is shown at the bottom of the Concordance. Right-click a word in the list or graph to exclude them. And if you're wondering about other documents containing a word, double-click one to start a search for that term.

Other functions of the AI's analyses include the Classify function. This examines the text content and locations of other documents in your database and makes suggestions for filing the current document. Additionally, See Also lists documents with a similar content to help find connections you may not have found otherwise.
